When it comes to work-friendly designer bags, you know you’ll want one that’s big and sturdy enough for your everyday essentials. So that it makes it worth the expense … you know, due to whole enticing “cost per wear” logic. But what if you don’t want a designer bag that’s really a dime a dozen, like the ones toted on every other woman in the office?

Then this roomy new bag may be your answer. Check out the new Marc Jacobs Incognito bag, its name as sleek and subtle as its appearance.

Available in store from August 15, 2014, this supple and soft update of the classic doctor’s bag is so named for its stealth luxe style. The only evidence of its logo is the Marc Jacobs name and its “birthplace”; “made in Italy” is stamped in silver, just above the zipper compartment. The bag is pleated at the side, to create that supple bag “dimple”, while having the basic structured shape as a doctor’s bag.

This bag is crafted from as many as 124 parts and is available in three types of leathers — textured calf leather, smooth calf leather and a super luxurious alligator skin. The latter is available for $59,900, for ladies keen on making that splurge, and will be in stock in Singapore in limited quantity.

A sleek silver padlock hanging at the shoulder bag handle adds to its charm. And of course, who could do without the shoulder bag strap now? This bag too features a detachable shoulder strap so that you can wear it crossbody with ease.

Prices start from $3,490 to $59,900, depending on the size of the bag and type of leather used. The Marc Jacobs Incognito bag will be available in Singapore from August 15, 2014 at Marc Jacobs ION Orchard, #02-12, Tel: 6304 1367.
