Just when I thought I couldn’t stomach another studded bag, Calvin Klein’s come up with the On the Dot hobo to change my mind.
The keys here are restraint and originality. Rather than covering the purse in metal, Calvin Klein gives us two trails of silver down the sides. Studs alternate with grommets to create a look that’s playful and modern. I’m as shocked as you that Calvin Klein has made studs appear contemporary when the fashion is on its way out!
The metal helps to add structure to this soft leather bag. It’s every bit as slouchy as we’d hope a hobo to be, but its platform base and reinforced sides help it stand up. That should make the On the Dot much more user-friendly than your average hippy hobo.
The choice of shoulder and cross-body straps is welcome but not unusual. What’s more intriguing is that both straps are removable, so you can enjoy a clean look no matter what mode you’re carrying it.
Calvin Klein’s also gone above and beyond inside. This isn’t the largest hobo I’ve seen, but it has a whopping four open pockets inside. There’s also a zippered pocket too, so you needn’t worry about your valuables going astray.
At $278, this On the Dot hobo is well priced for a bag you’ll happily carry all year round.
