Fashionistas all over the world are all crazy about this new fabulous "IT" bag by Chloe - The Marcie Bag! It's made in the most luxurious & soft bufflo leather and available in various of Luxe colors! In our previous posting, we have presented you the luxurious "Vermillion Red" color Marcie bag, in this posting, we are so happy to introduce you our newest contributing editor "Tara" from the mecca of fashion - New York City to share with us her shopping trip for this fabulous Chloe Marcie bag!
Chloe has many beautiful new colors on their website for their Marcie shoulder bag, but seeing them in person is always a different and usually better experience. So I head out to the usual lot of department stores here in Manhattan that carry Chloe & visit Chloe's boutique. My main interest in this "window shopping" excursion was to see the Ash ( grey) color in person, and be able to photograph a few bags in action to share with all of you! What I ended up focusing on was the new Ash color large Marice and the Cannon gunmetal metallic small Marcie.
First stop was Bergdorf Goodman and wow one week later everything they had from Memorial Day weekend was gone! They barely had any bags, although the salesman said they expected more stock in a week. Luckily, I walked over a few blocks to Bloomingdales. Here they did have the small Ash Marcie Hobo.....
Oftern people wonder about the about under arm fit of the marcie bag, and how comfortable it is. In my opinion it is one of the rare bags that looks great over the shoulder and handheld. I also found it extremely comfortable carried over the shoulder.
Saks Fifth Avenue has this on pre-order on their website, but if anyone wants one right now Bloomies NYC has the Small/Medium size in stock. It’s a good example of a bag not quite looking the same online.
It’s still a beautiful bag, but it’s not as saturated royal blue as it appears on the Saks website. The reason I have no picture is the saleswoman was to put it politely not pleased to see my camera. I was lucky to snap only one at Bloomies of the Marcie Ash hobo, alongside the gunmetal Cannon small Marcie. I'll refrain from commenting on their customer service, except to say it's quite ironic to wander around the rest of Bloomies and see tourists with their cameras clicking away inside the store.
Luckily they were much nicer at the actual Chloe boutique on 70th/Madison Avenue. Where most of my pictures are from there. Before I get to the grey Marcies, they did also have a Small Marcie shoulder bag (not the hobo) in the Vermillion Red color (since I have been in love with the large size, it was nice to see that color and style in person- again not as bright as I thought which in this case is a good thing). I thought this Vermillion Marcie shoulder bag (with the double handles) was only available in Europe, but I was indeed shown the small size here in NYC , that was previously blogged about by our guest editor "Becky" from Scotland.
I like the gunmetal small Marcie as well, thus it got equally photographed; This is one difficult bag to photo due to the metallic nature of it and camera flashes and so forth. I felt some of the pictures give it an orange hue which is not accurate at all.
Chloe's new beautiful Ash color is very true to life in these pictures. On the close up pic of the large ash there are some orange marks near the top handle - that is completely related to my camera- and of course not on the bag. I Just wanted to add that I double checked the color tags off all the bags and these did indeed say ASH.
If you are after the Marcie in other colors I definitely recommend contacting the NYC or Las Vegas Chloe boutique as they had many new arrivals from Paris in stock and many colors tucked away in stock drawers and so forth.

I'm a massive Mulberry fan. I was in a dept store in my home city Glasgow,Scotland checking out the newest Mulberry styles. To be honest I was horrified. The colours are fabulous but the new Spongy Patent Leather is not my cup of tea. As I walked out, I looked around properly for the first time in ages. Vermillion Marcie was just above eye level and she stopped me in my tracks.
I think of Paddington & Silverado when I think of Chloe and they aren't my thing. I briefly had a Bays and a Saskia but sold them on. So I wasn't prepared for the elegance and simplicity of the lines of Marcie. The leather is so soft and strong and luscious. The colour is so uncompromisingly RED. And what in the world can you say about Marcie handles. Utterly sublime!
I went home and googled for pics and info and went back the next day, half hoping it was a fleeting fancy rather than a falling in love! However I knew this was it and I also knew I did not have anywhere near that amount of disposable cash.
So I went home again and looked at all my Mulberrys and decided to sell some of them to fund this. I have to add that because I looked at Marcie, I looked at all of the Chloes, and saw a Large Nutmeg Paraty which broke my heart with its beauty. Which one?? Marcie or Paraty?
Well I went home and pulled out all my bags, sold £2000 plus of them, and bought both Chloes!! Luckily at 20% discount that day.
I sold some beloved bags to fund this I can tell you. However most of the sales were to girls on The Purse Forum and the pleasure I have got from their pleasure has only added to my happiness with Marcie and Paraty.
It is very hard to find a fabulous Red bag that doesn't wear you. I think Marcie is that bag because she lifts your spirits just too look at her and lifts your outfit without overwhelming it. - Becky
