Brown Bagging It This Fall

Kori Ellis — Sun, 26 Jul 2009 04:49:16 +0000

Brown bagging is a hot trend for fall. And I don’t mean carrying a sack lunch to work (though that’s okay too!). I am talking about brown handbags. If you always find yourself with a black bag as your go-to purse, this fall experiment with brown in all shades, fabrics and styles. Let’s take a look at some of the brown handbags available from the MARC by Marc Jacobs line. All these handbags are from Neiman Marcus.

MARC by Marc Jacobs Totally Turn-Lock Faridah ($448)
This bag comes in pebble brown leather and features silvertone hardware. You’ll love the patch pockets on the front with the signature turn-locks. This handbag is a fab choice for your everyday bag come fall.

MARC by Marc Jacobs Dr. Q Groovee Satchel ($498)
This MARC by Marc Jacobs satchel features tan leather and a detachable shoulder strap. The color of this bag leans a little toward the orange side and it’s a beautiful shade. At 15-inches wide, the Dr. Q Groovee satchel is big enough to hold everything you need.

MARC by Marc Jacobs Classic Gathered Hobo ($438)
Hobo bags don’t have to be casual. In fact, this classic one from MARC by Marc Jacobs is rather sophisticated. With super soft pebble brown leather and a slouchy shape, this extra large handbag is a perfect choice for fall.
