Daisy Lowe to Model for Marc by Marc Jacobs

Posted on: Nov 11

Move over Victoria “Posh Spice” Beckham. Your gaunt look is so last year. Curvy model Daisy Lowe is set to steal your style icon crown as the new face of Marc by Marc Jacobs.

Acclaimed German fashion photographer Juergen Teller will reportedly photograph Daisy for the Marc for Marc Jacobs spring/summer campaign.

With her extensive modeling experience, Daisy sounds like the perfect fit for the advertisements. She’s already appeared in editorial photo shoots for Italian Vogue and W magazine, and advertising campaigns for Urban Outfitters and French Connection. We’ve also seen her strutting the catwalk for Chanel, Topshop, and Vivienne Westwood.

Daisy’s also got the approval of the main man himself!

“I think she looks adorable,” Marc Jacobs told WWD.

We’ll get to see Daisy make her Marc Jacobs debut when the commercials surface in the beginning of next year. Hopefully Daisy’s new role will pave the way for more normal looking models and less of those stick insects we’re used to seeing!

This gorgeous B. Makowsky bag combines the slim lines of a business purse with the dreamy boho charm of a hobo handbag.

Like all B. Makowsky purses, the Valencia is made with the highest quality leather. This buttery soft fabric gives the bag its trademark hobo appearance.

Oversized Handbag Saves Purse Snatching Victim From a Bullet

Posted on: Nov 10

Oversized handbags aren’t just this season’s hottest fashion accessories. They could also save your life. Just ask Elizabeth Pittenger!

The 22-year-old university student from Tennessee was carrying a large purse as she walked to her car on Thursday evening. Along the way she was confronted by a man demanding her bag, cell phone, and laptop.

She fought the man off but he retaliated, firing at her with a .38 caliber handgun as he retreated. Police chief Buddy Peaster said a calculator, umbrella, and case stashed in the bag stopped the bullet from making contact with Miss Pittenger. Remarkably, she walked away from the incident, shaken but unharmed.

20-year-old Orlando Edmiston has been arrested over the incident. He has been charged with attempted murder, attempted armed robbery, and possession of a weapon on school property. And young Elizabeth is probably thanking her lucky stars she took such a large bag to college that day!
