Marc Jacobs Quilted Leather Bowler Bag

Even the brilliant have a right to beauty
Gone are the days when the intellectually elite marked themselves with pocket protectors and other horrible fashion blunders. The nerds of today are a lot more chic in the clothes and accessories they reach for. They are also a lot more choosey and with their brilliance comes the wealth to wear only the very best. To this end designers such as Marc Jacobs are creating stunning ways to help the cerebrally select spend their wealth.
Whether it’s to carry laptops from dorm room to class, or files for a business woman on the go, there is no now no excuse for an ugly carryall or, heaven forbid, back pack. Instead, as this month’s Vogue illustrates, messenger bags and briefcases are the new it item for designers.
Case in point . . .
This beautiful Marc Jacobs quilted leather bowler will set the discerning brain back about a grand, but I’m sure the brilliant can figure out an equation to reconcile the beauty factor with the cost.
