Bulgari Penelope Hobo Bag | Retro Pink and Black Canvas and Leather Purse

Posted on: Jul 6

Bulgari has channeled retro style with this fun Penelope hobo bag.

The cute color combo of pale pink and black calls to mind poodle skirts and jukeboxes. It's feminine without being fussy, and the rest of the Penelope follows suit. The casual slouch we associate with hobos is gone, replaced with smooth, chic lines. It's surprising really considering the canvas body, but the soft grain leather trim and corner patches add a lot of structure.

By ditching the unstructured slouch this hobo also loses out on storage space. Its medium size should be big enough to carry most everyday items, but girls used to oversized purses may still struggle. The sleek look also doesn't lend itself to overstuffing, even though the soft walls could probably accommodate a little extra.

For just $750, the Penelope is a relatively affordable way to add a little Bulgari luxury to your ensemble.
