Marc Jacobs Julia Bag

Often called a woman’s best friend, women obsess over handbags much the same way we do over Natalie Portman — relentlessly. That's why we decided no gift guide would be complete without a quality, everyday bag to give to your favorite girl this holiday season. Although we'll admit we're not really up on all the current "It Bags" in women’s fashion, we're pretty sure that any time you mix supple, white calf leather with shiny, metal hardware, the result is most likely going to be one happy lady. Plus we got it on good authority that the new Julia Bag from Marc Jacobs ($995) is sure to be a real crowd pleaser.
