I normally don’t go for metallic gold patent but there is something about these Marc By Marc Jacobs Dries Wedge Heels that I like. They are very 70s looking with the gold and stacked wood heel contrast. images: ssense.com
These Dries Wedge Booties by Marc By Marc Jacobs are fun shoes. There is a lot going on with the brown trim and patent leather navy but I like them a lot. They are very schoolboyish. I can see a myself in these with a pleated skirt, white tshirt and a schoolboy type satchel (like PS1 or Chloe). The rubber sole on the shoe should make the 4″ heel more bearable. images: ssense.com
Holt Renfrew and Marc by Marc Jacobs have teamed up to design a limited edition tote bag. A portion of the cost of this Holt Renfrew exclusive will be donated to VisionSpring, a charity that provides low-cost eyeglasses to workers and artisans in the developing work to see. I attended the launch party and learned that this tote raised $80,000 dollars for VisionSpring. The program exceeded everyone’s expectations. People who reserved can pick up their tote bags at Holt Renfrew’s across the country. You can purchase the $48 tote at Holt Renfrew locations from September 30, 2010 on a first come first serve basis. Who knows if they are sold out at this point in time. The visuals team really went to town with the tote theme. I decided to try out the Blackberry Torch’s camera and all the photos you see here are from it. I received a evaluation Torch from RIM two weeks ago almost. I’m loving it. The photos are much better than my Curve 8330 since it’s a 5MP camera. It’s …
Holt Renfrew and Marc by Marc Jacobs have teamed up to design a limited edition tote bag. A portion of the cost of this Holt Renfrew exclusive will be donated to VisionSpring, a charity that provides low-cost eyeglasses to workers and artisans in the developing work to see. Due to overwhelming demand the online reservation system is now offline. However, you can purchase the $48 tote at Holt Renfrew locations from September 30, 2010 on a first come first serve basis. Holt Renfrew was nice enough to send me the Marc by Marc Jacobs tote in blue. It’s a very good shopping tote it’s large and looks like it can handle some weight. It also has a large inside pocket which is great for cellphones and other electronic gadgets. It fits my Kobo reader very well.

I tried on this cute military style dress by Marc by Marc Jacobs at Holt Renfrew. It looks like a Celine knockoff. It’s like Marc took an old military coat and made it a dress. It closes with a set of buttons that are covered by the zipper. It’s super cute. Purchase online at: Neiman Marcus, STYLEBOP.com

The other type of handbag I’ve been obsessing over is the bucket bag. I have no idea why they are calling to me at this moment. Alexander Wang – Diego suede studded bucket bag MATT & NAT – Commix Drawstring Bag Marc by Marc Jacobs – Party Girl Tribal Pixie Bucket Bag These are a few of the more interesting ones I’ve seen. UPDATE(May 4, 2010): I saw the black version of the MATT & NAT bucket bag for sale at Over the Rainbow. It’s pretty fun in person. I like it. UPDATE(May 10, 2010): I saw the Marc By Marc Jacobs bucket bag at Holt Renfrew on the weekend. It’s pretty nice in person also. images: shopbop.com, net-a-porter.com
I found this vintage Marc Jacobs documentary though someone I follow on twitter named Erich Ben. He has a great collection of YouTube fashion videos. The documentary starts from the beginning of Marc Jacobs’ career and stops at the beginning of his early Louis Vuitton days. Marc is so young in these videos. It’s interesting to compare this early Marc Jacobs to the current one. Do you guys remember some classic Marc Jacobs styles? The pony tail and headband are here for the viewing. Part 1 Part 2 Part 3
A magenta bag was waiting for me when I returned home from work on Friday. I love unexpected deliveries from Holt Renfrew. I removed the grey and white tissue paper and was greeted by a black, white and pink box. I saw the tell tale jumbled letters, it was Marc by Marc Jacobs. I was right, Marc by Marc Jacobs and Holt Renfrew teamed up to create a limited edition tshirt celebrating the winter season. I absolutely adore that the scene takes place on a chairlift. It’s a pretty cute tshirt. I’m wearing an x-small in the photo. I would have preferred a small just for some extra room. However, the x-small is comfy, soft and not claustrophobic in anyway. Breathing isn’t an issue in this shirt. The tshirts are available only at Holt Renfrew all across the country. The box comes with it too but there are limited quantities available. It’s pretty sturdy and I plan on storing some jewellery in it. Danielle from Final Fashion tweeted about her package and asked an important …
