Marc by Marc Jacobs bags are casual, lively bags that can be similar in look and style to the standard Marc Jacobs bags, but are considerably less expensive. Usually featuring bright colors and a vintage shape, they also tend to be practical bags – such as totes, backpacks, hobos and clutches, with lots of pockets and made in a sturdy fabric. As with most well-made bags, if you keep them clean and looked after, they will last for years.

The Marc by Marc Jacobs Strippy Zippy Groovee handbag is a soft leather satchel that is functional, versatile and great-looking. It boasts a roomy main compartment lined in fine textile and leather trim. The main compartment closes with a zipper and features an interior zip pocket and two slip pockets. Convenience is heightened with an array of exterior pockets – two large open pockets and three smaller zip pockets. You can carry the bag using either the double rolled shoulder straps or the detachable cross-body strap. The available colors tend to vary, but the bag has been spotted in black, khaki and a very delicious red. Adding extra style – as if you need it – is an enamel logo plate and silver hardware.

Those who have carried the Marc by Marc Jacobs Strippy Zippy Groovee handbag give it a number of raves. For daytime needs, either during the work week or on the weekend, it carries everything you need comfortably except your laptop. It's been touted as a great travel bag for its convenience, capacity and durability, as well as its ability to work well either strolling around town during the day or going to the opera at night. Users love that it features the same quality Marc Jacobs style but is less expensive.

The red version is among the most popular, as it is a rich red usually only found on vintage bags and adds extra class and zip to any outfit. Plus, it's the sort of red that goes with everything, just like black – but it's not another black bag! The leather has a subtle sheen that indicates high quality and isn't too flashy. Finally, those who have bought the bag are delighted with its versatility and simplicity, which they feel give it a timeless look. Because although it is much less expensive than a standard Marc Jacobs bag, the price it is still a substantial outlay for a lot of women. However, if the bag lasts ten years or more and looks great the whole time, it turns out to rival a cheap bag in cost. It's a bag worth an investment.

The Marc by Marc Jacobs Strippy Zippy Groovee handbag, or any Marc by Marc Jacobs bag, can be found at most of the better department stores, such as Saks and Barneys. It can also be bought online either through these retailers or other licensed sources. Of course, if you want the bag but are hoping for a bargain, you can try your luck on sites like eBay. Most sellers are up front about the bag's origins, but you should still be realistic and accept that you might be looking at a high-quality knockoff. Ultimately, your best bet is to go to a qualified retailer or their outlet store when they are having a sale and remember that a good bag is a great investment.
