Dautore Slouchy Hobo

Haven’t you heard?  Boho chic is back even though the dwarf twins are no longer in the news (as much).  Maybe that’s the reason, it’s way less tiring this way.  OK, so this may not be so bohemian but I am appreciating a good practical hobo, so why not add some fun and interesting details, like the ruching, patent cording swirls on the sides and knotted strap – and they do not get in the way of function but give the bag style and personality.  It is also my Cheap Thrill of the week so if you are not totally convinced, at least you won’t be needing to take the bus to afford it.  And that brings me to the thing that makes “Cheap” the operative word here, the interior’s got some funky printed lining that I do not like.  Yes, it’s bright and colorful but so are clowns, let’s just say it is not a sign of refined style.  It probably is not so bothersome if you have to just glance at it quickly but you’d be surprised how much you pay attention to the interior of a bag.  That is the thing I look at first and is usually a deal breaker for me if I am not fully satisfied with its quality.  Hmmm, maybe I should not have featured this bag.  Oh well, too late now.  Take it for what it is.  Besides, there is no science to bag obsession, someone might really be digging the print.  Dautore Slouchy Hobo at Shopbop for $656.
