Fashion Find: Yellow Marc Bag

I would never dream of wearing this color close to my face, but have no problem with bright yellow dangling from my arm. This Softy Sloane bag (Buy Direct) from Marc by Marc Jacobs is extra-cute in pebbled leather (frankly, I think I would like that longer than yellow patent) with all of the usual Marc Jacobs handbag features like pockets, zippers and substantial hardware. With the economy, it's getting harder and harder to justify spending huge money on a handbag, especially styles that you'll be sick of this time next year. But I think much of what this designer turns out -- especially the high-quality leather styles -- have loads of staying power. (Photo Credit: Shopbop.com)
