Cool Marc Jacobs Gear for Under $40

Designer clothing and accessories are fun to swoon over, but wouldn't it be nice if they were actually affordable? Marc Jacobs is listening. As rumors swirl about the New York-based designer possibly taking his company public, we've honed in on items already suitable for the masses. In addition to well-priced accessories, the Marc Jacobs website also features a "special items" section with crossbody bags, wallets, t-shirts, bracelets, cashmere hats, and yes, even shoes, all for under $40. These items are "special," but they won't sell out in minutes like a Target collaboration, and there are bountiful styles and colors to choose from. No matter what happens with his company, Marc Jacobs has found his way into our hearts and our virtual shopping carts. By Joanna Douglas, Yahoo Shine Senior Fashion and Beauty Editor
