The choice of animal a brand goes for when choosing a charm for their range can heavily dictate the direction it will go in. Go for butterflies and hearts and you're targeting the younger market, but go for birds and you go for the young-at-heart - grown ups that love the whimsical.
Marc by Marc Jacobs' bird icon add a quirky detail to their classic bags, making the entire range stand out from the crowd. It's colourful and cute but the kind of bag you could still use for a day at work.
This Marc by Marc Jacobs Petal to the Metal Shoulder Bag is from Net-A-Porter and it's £345.
