Hobo Shoulder Bags Are Here to Stay This Spring

If you were a child of the late ’80s or ’90s, then growing up you likely remember the ultra-stylish and incredibly sleek shoulder bags that were at the forefront of fashion in the late ’90s and early 2000s. Burrowed beneath the armpits of It-girls like Carrie Bradshaw aka Sarah Jessica Parker, Paris Hilton, the Olsen Twins and more, the minimalist silhouette was beloved by so many. Clean in design these bags are not only sleek to look at, but they’re also an equally as stylish, but much more functional alternative to the micro and mini bags that have been trending the last few years.

While hobos have been making their comeback, this season in particular it’s all about the hobo shoulder bag—the sleek, short-strapped silhouette that’s compact, yet somehow spacious at the same time. A street style must have, we’re loving new versions of carry over styles like the Gucci Jackie that’s been reinvented in denim this spring as well as the new kids in town like Saint Laurent’s logo Le 5 À 7 Hobo and Fendi’s newest must-have, the Croissant bag.
