The Item: Beyonce’s Gucci Loved Bag aka the Gucci Marmont Embroidered Velvet Shoulder Bag.

You Asked: Hey 1966! I like that Loved bag I’ve been seeing the Queen with! I saw someone call it the Loved Bag. You know the one with the florals? Who makes that?

Ask and Tell: Beyonce’s Gucci Marmont Embroidered Velvet Shoulder Bag

The Verdict: Thanks for the question, we have noticed Queen Bey toting the Gucci Loved Bag around quite a bit too! The bag is actually the Gucci Marmont Embroidered Velvet Shoulder Bag. Quite a splurge if you are thinking of adding it to your closet. It retails for $2,700 and can be found right on the Gucci website.

Furthermore, if 2700 is steep there is a slightly (and we mean slight) cheaper Gucci Marmont handbag. Just as cute and chic with florals. Instead of reading “Loved” it says “Modern.” This bag will run you only $2,590.

Now getting back to the Queen. We have seen the CFDA Fashion Icon winner with this particular bag on the Gram at least twice now. The first time she was outside you know just getting fresh air and slaying for the cameras in distressed denim and Alberta Ferreti sheer blouse ($1200). Take two occurred when Bey wore a yellow satin Hellessy ‘Akim’ coat and the Minaroe ‘Aliyah’ gown ($120).

Hope that answered your fashion question! If you or a style obsessed gal pal has one they would like to ask give us a follow on Instagram, slide into our DMs and ask away.

Pharrell Williams is talented beyond compare, but he is certainly known for two things… music and fashion! Williams can always be spotted at the hottest music red carpet events as well as couture runway designer shows. Furthermore, he is constantly touted for his personal style and pizzazz in numerous men’s style mags. Therefore, it is no surprise to see him now stepping once again into the fashion spotlight front and center. The Chanel Gabrielle Bag Campaign Starring Pharrell Williams is taking fall/winter trends by storm!

Fashion Scene: The Chanel Gabrielle Bag Campaign Starring Pharrell Williams

We are reminded of a Seinfeld episode when Jerry is carrying an “European handbag” to transport all his daily valuables. Jerry loved it and it made something else very clear. Men have things they want to have on them when going around town just as much as us ladies. However, it seems that men are not always thought of in this way.

Most bags on the market are exclusively made with women in mind. This campaign by Chanel is attempting to give men more chic choices when it comes to bags. Is this a look all men would enjoy? Probably not, many guys still enjoy more of a briefcase design or a bag with small handles that they can carry by hand. However, if one prefers straps they will definitely enjoy the comfort level of swinging something over their shoulder and going about their activities.

Pharrell is the first man to be featured in a Chanel bag campaign. The campaign’s film short was directed by Antoine Carlier. Get a peek of it below.
