Handbag Style on Trial: Marc by Marc Jacobs Graffiti Tote

Every so often in the world of fashion, some designer will wake up in the morning thinking, "Hey! You know what would make a really great print on my fantastic items? Graffiti, that's what!" This season, that designer is Marc Jacobs, whose Graffiti Tote is part of the current Marc by Marc Jacobs line, and available at Saks for $148. But what do we all think of it?

The Fashion Police have to put their hands up here and say we see more than enough graffiti in the area around the HQ (those fashion criminals can be messy) to want to see even more of it on our clothes and accessories, and out slight OCD tendencies would make us want to scrub this bag clean every time we used it. But that's just us. What say you to this one, Fashion Jurors? Will you convict or acquit it of crimes of fashion?

Acquitted. I really like it.

"Miss Too Toot MJ(?)"...I'm not exactly sure where this stream of consciousness garble speak is going, but definitely not on my bag! Great accessory for Halloween, though. "Trick or Treat! Hand me some candy or I'll leave heinous graffiti on your walls."

I would never carry a bag with the word "toot" on it. It seems like that's just asking for trouble... :)

I'd like it more if the graffiti was better executed, like real graffiti - most is total crap, other times it can be excellent examples of self expression.

I've yet to see a graffiti'd clothing item that I liked. It's too ghetto-fabulous for me.

I absolutely adore it.
