It looks like Marc Jacobs took a trip to Vegas when inspired by new Spring 2007 Python Patchwork Stams, and unfortunately what happened in Marc’s imagination there, did not stay in Vegas. No the Python Patchwork Stam is now available for purchase via Saks Fifth Avenue (in blue, the tamest colour).

I should have warned you, this post’s images are not for the faint of heart. The bags themselves are not for the faint of loyal Marc Jacobs heart, either—for this burst of tie-dyed snake skin costs $4,000.

More colours below, if you dare click on what look more like digital art images than photographs of real objects.

What green bag are you carrying this St. Patrick’s Day? Post your photos in our forum!

I’m making mine a Saint Paddy Day with my Chloe Paddington “Mousse” Satchel!

Have a fun yet safe holiday!

Spring Break is here, with sandy beaches calling to us and actual sightings of green grass. A great travel handbag for your later winter getaway is this Prada Frame Bag. Natural straw with green leather trim, it’s just enough Summer sand with greens of Spring for the upcoming weeks. Featuring a removable green leather luggage tag, it’s good to go as your carry-on purse, as well!

13″ x 9″ x 5″ this cute satchel costs $1,350. That’s probably less than a trip to Disney World! So if you cut back on the fabulousness of your March break trip, perhaps you can afford this purse. Hey it will last a lot longer than a mere 7 days! (Two seasons, year after year!) Putting it that way, it almost seems like you need a new bag!

Okay, I just think this Delano Small Rowen Tote by Kate Spade is adorable and is perfect for this time of year! Plus, here’s the great news and why I decided to post about it—it’s on sale for $106, marked down from it’s original $265 price tag!

My one problem with this bag is it doesn’t fasten shut—I like my purses to be closed when I’m carrying them so I don’t have to worry about things falling out, or worse yet, someone’s hands trying to reach in and grab my wallet without me noticing. Yeah, some might call me paranoid, but oh well. This bag does feature an interior zipped pocket which helps.

It’s made from green and white canvas, has white leather trim and a beige and blue polka dot lining, which I wish I could see a picture of. Ooh, polka dots—maybe I really will have to consider buying this one. I can get over the bag not fastening—maybe.

The color of this leather hobo by Kenneth Cole is such a nice change from the handbags I’m usually looking at; they tend to either be bold, bright colors or neutrals. This color is so soft and it reminds me of mint chocolate chip ice cream, only without the chocolate chips!

Measuring 9.5″ l x 5″ h x 5.5″ d, it’s made from washed nappa leather, features brass hardware and is lined with cotton twill. The lining seems the perfect complement to the color—light, cool and refreshing, which is a natural choice for a new spring handbag, don’t you think?! Of course, it is $258.
