Does anyone have a Marc by Marc Jacobs bag?

[Dancergirl]

I'm thinking about buying a Natasha bag. Does anyone have one and would they recommend? It's about the maximum I would spend on a bag so it's got to be perfect.

Does it just have one compartment?

Lucky you, mine still hasn't been dispatched. What does "regular" mean - same as the original?

Yes (not the mini!)

Cardoon did you get your MJ bag from Saks? I ordered this marc jacobs bag thanks to this thread and the bag arrived today and it is lovely! Saved me £100 too compared to the Harvey Nichols price, so thanks to you and Dancergirl

Oh hell, Rafaella. Have to hide my credit card and sit on my hands now.

Ha! I'm saying nothing (the Saks service was excellent btw)

Not yet, but it's on it's way. When did you place your order? I see the prices have dropped now so no need for the 30% off code. Love that bag! So great to get the US bargains.

Did the customs charge and shipping add on much with Saks.
Asking for a friend .

Apr 25th. Yes, I've got a black Lil Ukita which I have used every day for 2 years and it's still in fantastic condition but I wanted an alternative for the summer. Was thinking I'd have to pay £355 (selfridges/Liberty/Harvey Nicks price) until I saw this thread.

PeachandBlack, was about £50 on top but the shipping was free

Thank you. I have a 4 year old brown Natasha which is my winter bag, but am tempted by a lighter colour for summer.

Aaaaargh why did I come back to,this thread? Rafaella what colour did you order? I quite like the first blue (bluestone) but maybe it wouldn't be versatile enough? That is sooo nice. Also sitting on my hands!

I love the blue but went for the sensible option and got the praline. Also the blue is more expensive. I did see the blue in real life in Liberty and it is a gorgeous colour

The praline is really lovely ... that's the problem, most of the colours are!

Harvey Nicks have 20% off this weekend. The code is HNFRIEND20. It works on MBMJ bags!

Oh Cranagh ... why did you post that code ?

Finally, I am now in possession of my lovely Natasha. Gorgeous, squishy bag - a little smaller than the original I would say but better, thicker strap and the size is perfect for me. So pleased with the US price/free shipping/discount. Hope the big US companies will do more of this.

Am trying to order from Saks but the checkout page says that they can't ship the bag I want to the UK. Did anyone else have this problem and what's the way round it?

Forget that, have worked out the problem. It would be despatched from store so they can't do international shipping .

Am dithering over a taupe Natasha for £197 inc duties/tax.

I'm blaming this thread for this beauty
