I continue to see the Chloe Marcie Bag on both Katie Holmes and Jessica Alba, which prompted another look at the latest hit from Chloe. Every time I see a Chloe bag or even their logo, the initial thought that pops into my mind is the weight of the bag. Anyone who has owned the once coveted Paddington knows that the weight of the bag was a talking point. Rightfully so, as the leather of the bag was very thick and heavy and the signature padlock sent the weight of the bag over-the-top. So when we are introduced to a new Chloe bag, I have a hard time putting aside past thoughts and looking at it with a clean slate.
But I will try. When Amanda first reviewed the Marcie it was the hobo version, she gave it a positive review. And here comes another positive review, because the larger version, which I keep spotting on the celebs, is also a beautiful bag. The lines are clean and sleek, yet rounded and feminine. I love how the wrapped-detail handle adds a new dimension. And with fall relying on camel and neutral hued colors, this bag is a perfect option. I kind of love it and I never feel like Chloe lets anyone down with the quality of their materials. Buy via Net A Porter for $1,790.
This is a beautiful bag and I love the color. Megs, have you seen the Chloe Louise calfskin satchel (on NAP and Saks http://www.net-a-porter.com/product/78629)? Would love Purseblog’s thoughts on this one. Very on trend, but the interior is what mesmerizes me – lambskin!
I love this bag. I feel it’s very wearable for everyday, yet elegant. (fb)
This is a pretty bag but something is keeping me from loving it. Perhaps the flap or the handles. (fb)
i do own a chloe bag, i love chloe but i find the line very pricey. (fb)
and yes i have see jessica alba and katie holmes with this bag on people magazines website, it does look nice. but for the price, i might as well go on a much needed vacation. (fb)
I always love Chloe bags, but I think I like the hobo version of this one better because of how the lines of the design flow right into the shape of the handle. That said, the structured look of this version makes it a very chic choice to carry to work. (fb)
I really love this bag but the price hurts. lol (fb)
Beautiful bag. I love the color and style, but not the price. (fb)
This bag doesn’t woo me like a lot of Chloes. I think the color is too muted for me. (fb)
Clarie, I couldn’t agree with you more. The color, the flap…it’s just not working for me. (fb)
Beautiful.timeless.classic.LOVE Chloe bags! (fb)
Not liking this at all. (fb)
To me the flap looks like it’s weighing the bag down. Too big and what’s its purpose??? (fb)
I like the shape, not the colour. (fb)
I love the deep garnet color on netaporter’s website of this bag.
Whiskey is speaking to me. I love it!! (fb)
I like this bag because its right for my age, I am 32 and this bag from chloe gives a sophisticated approach. Its perfect for daytime at work or casual date, time with family. Its perfect with jeans or pants with blazer top, something casual and corporate.(fb)
They just came out with a crossbody version of this, in camel, and I tried it on yesterday. It’s absolutely fabulous, and very easy to access. There are zippers around the front flap, which is the access point to the bag. The strap is incredibly long though, and on someone my size (5’4″), I would have had to take it in to have more holes made. Very pretty. Price was $1,300 CDN before tax.
With the Chloe the first thing I think of too is the weight, then the price…….but I certainly do like them.
This looks a whole lot like the Paraty bag. It’s okay. I am not really into the Chloe handbags because of the heft.
oops! (fb)
not my type (fb)
Oh I like it- it reminds me of a belt buckle (fb)
Just beautiful!!! (fb)
Wow this is gorgeous! This is the first time I had to take a double look at a Chloe Bag. Stunning! (fb)
This is nice! Love the colour! No hassle for everyday use! (fb)
It is a beautiful bag…very clean and chic. I love the color. (fb)
I don’t know if i would buy another chloe bag I have the bay bag and its SOO heavy (fb)
i really need to get myself a bag that looks like this…
Not too sure about this one…it’s a little plain for my taste. (fb)
i don’t think that this one is for me. from a far i thought that it was an extended version of paraty. i think i would very much prefer a paraty instead. (fb)
LOVE LOVE LOVE it! I love Chloe bags… now only if I can afford one! (fb)
beautiful && chic. (fb)
Sold out already on net-a-porter… beautiful looking bag, love the detailed stitching and classic color (fb)
love the detail and how sleek it looks.
understated but yet it still grabs your attention (fb)
I love how it looks so feminine and unique. It makes a statement all on its own. (fb)
great bag! Looks very sturdy! (fb)
The colour and the understated details make it beautiful. (fb)
That is a beauty….love the shape and size. Although the weight of it would be the deciding factor! (fb)
Love it!!! But then again, I am a Chloe freak and the heft of the bags doesn’t bother me since I hardly carry anything in my handbags to begin with…this bag is far more gorgeous in person, by the way, for anyone who is considering it. Drool, drool, drool.
For some reason I just can’t get into Chloe bags….. It looks really lovely, but I never find myself obsessing over them or pining away for them! I don’t know why! Just never speaks to me:(
(fb)
way too beautiful for this century!
The price tag is too high for me. 🙁

I love the simplicity of this bag. I am not a fan of Chloe but this is very much my cup of tea and this colour really compliments the design. (fb)

Definitely, a must have bag for everyday.

Kevin.
I looked at your website you wrote.but not good quality .Too bad copy
So simple, yet so sweet (fb)
not a fan of chloe bags but this one is a beauty ! 😉 (fb)
Love this bag! (fb)
i can see this bag looking amazing on somebody who perfected casual look (alba) but i am not sure it would work with my dressing style (fb)
I don’t like the design of this bag. (fb)
I have this bag and love it! The leather is TDF! Absolutely stunning. It will exceed your expectations. The current Chloe Advertising Campaign 2010/2011 featuring this bag is beautiful. It really showcases the bag well. BeautifulBasics
I hate to say this, because I know a lot of people love this bag, but I’ve never really been convinced by the design and it suddenly occurred to me, fairly recently, that the reason is because it reminds me of a loo seat (complete with lid!).
I have an Elsie clutch and the clasp looks like a bath tap but, apparently, even I draw the line at loo seats, LOL! ;D
i bought this one in black and crossbody…loving it!!!
