Hobo Bags (Page 16)

When you have a hit, keep riding the wave. Miu Miu hit big time with the highly coveted Coffer and for Spring/Summer 2007 Miu Miu has released the fraternal twin. Ohh and ahh at the Miu Miu Quilted Linen Hobo like I am doing. A perfect tint of metallic gold is splashed on the braided top handle, detachable body strap, and other slight trimming. I said it with the Coffer and I’ll say it with the Linen rendition, this is a sure to be hit and one of the most amazing and fun designs out there. The ruched linen body has a top flap, gold hardware, and front pockets. I can not stop drooling over this perfect sized hobo, 12″H X 15″L X 2½”W. Get your hands on one at Saks for $1155.

Not only do I love Derek Lam clothing, but Derek Lam handbags are making quite a splash in the world of accessories. Personally, I am developing a crush on the Derek Lam Hildegard Hobo Handbag. Love the removable shoulder strap, love the supple white leather, love the pleats, and love the Aires ring on the front. Can you dig it? The price is not as amazing, but if you want a white bag and have a bit of extra cash, why not splurge a bit. Via Luisa via Roma for approx $2026.

NUTI is known for impeccable Ostrich that can make any woman swoon. This creamy Pirite Ostrich bag is accented with two gold ruthium rings. Named the NUTI Sevillana, this handbag can also be referred to as an East/West hobo and prides itself in being a perfect size, shape, color, and material for any woman. On the inside, signature orange lining is found alongside inner pockets for storing your essentials. Measurements are 18″ w X 13″ l X 3 1/4 deep with an approximately 5″ drop for the shoulder strap. The words that I hate to see after a bag I year for are “out of stock”, but I am sure Lux Couture will get you on a list or take care of you the best they can (GREAT customer service there!!!!). Make sure to check out all other Nuti items. Sevillana for $2700 via Lux Couture.

Many wonder if the infamous Chloe Paddington has had its time and is over. Not in my opinion, but really, how many styles of this handbag can you make? I love my Paddington, I love my Paddington Tote, but this Chloe Paddington Hobo lacks the oversized (and possibly harmful) shape that I have come to know and love. Sure the stunning and lush leather is unbelievable, the green and ivory colors are divine, but the size is just puny. It is puny enough to make me want to feed it a Hungry Jack meal and put it to bed to rest up and grow big and tall. At least the paddlock is there to comfort us and let us know this bag is a bit familiar. Maybe, on the body, this style is stunning, but to me, it just makes me shrug. Via Saks for $1585.

The lovely folks at Fab Sugar posted about a Fiore bag that I also can’t decide Yay or Nay for. My gut feeling is Nay unless you are part of generation y, aka younger crowd, and this funky pattern works for you. Fab Sugar describes the Isabella Fiore Folktale Fantasy Trina Large Hobo Bag perfectly as a “soccer ball with a folksy, colorful pattern that calls to mind some bucolic Scandinavian village.” Nail on the head, right? Time after time I find myself saying that a bag could work ok with jeans and a teeshirt. I am going to say that for this bag, because for some odd reason I can’t say that I hate it, but for many reasons I am no where near professing my love for it. Buy it via Nordstrom’s for $625.

Tell me what you think!

Brown and simple the Salvatore Ferragamo Sami Kidskin Hobo can be toted for everyday wear and no fuss. This rich leather bag sports a few quilted accents and ruched detailing on the side of the bag. Silvertone hardware is sleek and simple. This hobo bag also has double shoulder straps, a top zip closure, canvas lining and inside pockets. Measuring 8″H X 14″L X 6″W, this bag is as simple as it seems via Saks for $1190.

Even sexy people have their not so sexy moments. Brooke Burke has graced the cover of many magazines nearly nude but sometimes she wants to be like the rest of us; you know, stick out her tongue at her daughter. This picture cracks me up but the other part of the picture I zoomed in on was the bag. Brooke Burke’s Isabella Fiore Shirr Honor Carina Large Hobo was placed on the dirty table surrounded by food. Food stains cream bags! This Fiore Hobo is made with shirred creame leather to give it that unique texture look. The bag is now marked down via Adasa for $625.
