Marc Jacobs Patchwork Carolyn
By: Erin D.

Patchwork often comes across as looking like a misguided 1970s relic that should be accompanied by bell bottoms, but
Marc Jacobs finally managed to make the technique look fresh and ultra-stylish. His
Patchwork Carolyn bag is a shiny black grained leather bowler-shaped bag with a stitched patchwork pattern. Because it’s all black leather, the bag avoids the typical patchwork pitfalls and instead resembles a hipper, more downtown version of a quilted bag. I also love the brassy gold hardware, rolled leather handles, and leather logo tag. This is just another reason why Marc Jacobs is THE arbiter of hot, must-have bags for today’s fashionistas.
