Marc Jacobs Neon Bags S/S 08

[Alexis1983]

I was in Nordstrom today and saw the most hideous BRIGHT neon Marc Jacobs bags. Neon greenish yellow, neon orange, neon pink.
BLINDING.
Has anyone else seen these?
HE also has a new style bag that has a gigantic metal frog on it.

To be honest, the whole visual was tough to look at.
I cant find any pictures online anywhere though.
Has anyone else seen these?

according to the marc jacobs website, the colors are called "Fluo Pink", "fluo green", "Acid yellow", and "acid orange"
Looking at them made my stomach feel acidic

the pictures dont do them justice to their horror....they are REALLY BRIGHT!

i have to agree...
i was interested in the venetia (the 4th bag posted) and expected the color to be more like balenciaga's bouton d'or, but when i finally saw it the other day, it was a horrid neon yellow...
the stam i saw in neon pink was equally strange...

thanks for posting those pictures! heeheehee is it dreadfully wrong that i kind of actually like the pink frog bag?!

 

[humeurcâline]

hehe I like the blue one!

if it didn't have the frog on it, the blue one wouldn't be so bad.

I kind of like the pink frog bag too. It would have been better if they were Marc by Marc Jacobs because why would anyone pay $900+ for a flourescent bag?!

i don't know how i feel about this. the nu-rave kid in me is feelin it like hot tamales. but the fashionista in me is saying no.

I loved the frog bags! When I saw them in Nordstrom last weekend I was so fascinated by them! I thought they were so cute and kitschy

This sends me into a stupor.

the frog bags are grand, imho.

they remind me of something a modern fairy princess would carry. the grass green and neon pink are cool and whimsical for night. i'm so sick of standard clutches, and a day clutch is too damn big to tote to dinner or a lounge.

i only say YES to the turquoise quilted bag. any other color is...... negh.

though, it's gotta be fun when you're one of those all black dressers and throw a neon bag on to mix things up.

 

[Alexis1983]

while i agree that...yea, the idea is cute....for a day or two
I have to agree with Tiffany, that its insane to spend $900+ on a bag thats neon. especially so blindingly neon. you have to see some of these in person.
at nordstrom they had them all together in a group, it was blinding and a little nausiating...and a little facinating

hahha.
but the blinding and nausia overtook the facinating part

I really need to see this in real life to see if it could be wearable. I still haven't decided if I love it or hate it yet.

 

[PrincessImp.]

I love the frog bags, I really do!

Maybe when several bags are all together on a display, it's perceived as too much.. but rocking one hot pink bag.. could be ok?

It depends on the bags I suppose.. I haven't seen any of these in person

i do love the frog but not on the styles posted. the pink one with a different handle would be quite cool
