Laurel & Sunset Dunsmouth Hobo | Smelly & Confused Pleated Purse
Laurel & Sunset always delivers affordable accessories, but often its aesthetic leaves a bit to be desired. Such is the case with the Dunsmouth Hobo, which sees some promising elements clumsily sandwiched together.
I can't help thinking of the Bride of Frankenstein when I ...
Urban Junket Makes Battery Powered Bags | Plastic Bottle Handbags Charge Mobile Devices
We've all heard of handbags that charge your cell phone while you're on the go, but most of these innovative fashion items cost a mint. Urban Junket offers a more affordable alternative which is every bit as tech savvy with its new battery powered bags.
Urban ...
Kathy Van Zeeland Flapper Chic Hobo | Snake Printed Synthetic Handbag
Kathy Van Zeeland shows uncharacteristic restraint with its Flapper Chic hobo.
The name doesn't refer to the flapper style of the 1920s, but the hobo's classic flap closure. This curved element mimics the Flapper Chic's soft, voluminous shape. Pleats near the base ...
Jalda Salini Hobo | Soft Anaconda-Embossed Teal Leather Handbag
Serpentine scales make the Salini hobo from Jalda a very refined creature.
The embossed scales are significantly larger than we typically see on snake-style bags. Jalda says the bolder finish is inspired by anacondas, and I've never been close enough to one of these jungle giants to argue! ...
Gucci Bella Hobo | Medium Classic Brown Leather Handbag
Gucci delivers a hobo worthy of its name with the Bella.
This hobo truly is a thing of beauty. Gucci's extracted the essence from the familiar handbag style and done away with everything that can be gimmicky about the style. It's more sophisticated than your average boho fare, ...
Global Elements Sarita Hobo | Eco-Friendly Woven Sisal Purse
Global Elements has created an eco-friendly and affordable alternative to Diane Von Furstenberg's Stephanie bag with this Sarita hobo.
It seems a little unfair to compare a cheap and cheerful purse with a celebrity favorite It bag, but the influence seems undeniable. The chain-like woven finish ...
Ghibli Jeweled Beige Suede & Reptile Leather Hobo Bag | Western Styled Handbag
Ghibli gives the classic hobo an unusual makeover with this Jeweled Beige Suede & Reptile Leather Hobo Bag.
Its name is a real mouthful, but it tells us plenty about this striking purse. Breaking it down ensures we don't miss any of this hobo's ...
Franchi Princess II Mini Hobo Bag | Elegant Rhinestone Covered Purse
Franchi has reinvented its Princess purse with the Princess II.
The original Princess was a clutch covered in glittering Swarovski crystals. The newest incarnation takes the form of a small hobo bag, which is every bit as elegant as its predecessor but a bit more practical. ...
Francesco Biasia Ismene Hobo | Blue Woven Leather Drawstring Bag
Francesco Biasia offers a chic woven leather handbag for less with this Ismene hobo.
The label has clearly taken inspiration from Bottega Veneta here. The Ismene's woven leather is delicate and refined, every bit the equal to the tight weaves Bottega Veneta offers. But the bold ...
Fossil Campbell Hobo | Laser Cut White Leather Handbag
Fossil always creates solid accessories, but it's done little to truly excite me of late. So I'm thrilled to see the American label shaking things up with this Campbell Hobo.
The gorgeous laser-cut finish really sucked me in. A delicate art deco design is punched into the leather ...
Kirrily Johnston Designs Limited Edition Hobo for Special K | Suede Purse for Cereal Snacks
Australian fashion designer Kirrily Johnston has unexpectedly teamed up with Kellogg's Special K cereal for a limited edition handbag.
The classic red suede hobo features a clever pocket purpose built for holding a Special K cereal snack bar. According to the press release ...
Bottega Veneta Braided Leather Hobo Bag | Luscious Red & Pink Take Everywhere Bag
There's kind of a divide in the fashionista kingdom. There are those who go for status, those who look for quality, and those who look for design. Bottega Veneta is one of the few lines that covers all bases and manages to attract everyone from the ...
Donald J Pliner Numa Hobo | Black Fringed Leather Handbag
Donald J Pliner brings some edge to bohemian fashion with this Numa Hobo.
The Numa's soft slouchy silhouette and crescent shape are classic hobo trademarks. The long suede fringing which falls softly from its straps brings some extra bohemian style to the design. But ...
Diane von Furstenberg Elaine Festival Hobo Bag | Classic Lightweight Black Leather Purse
Coachella may be winding down, but it's just the start of what should be a vibrant summer festival season. If you plan on hitting a few of these musical spectaculars you'll need a reliable bag by your side. Diane ...
Chocolate Yazmin Hobo | Summery Pink Woven Raffia Purse
Chocolate gets us ready for the warm weather ahead with this Yazmin hobo.
Raffia is often used on summery bags, but it rarely looks as smart as it does here. The tight weave brings some sophistication to the casual material, especially when it's paired with the complementary pink ...
Badgley Mischka Annette Hobo | Large Metallic Leather Handbag
Badgley Mischka goes big and bold with this Annette Hobo bag.
This isn't a purse for wallflowers. Its oversized dimensions work with its shiny pewter leather to demand attention. It doesn't do it with a lot of grace or decorum, but it gets results.
I've never ...
B. Makowsky Ollie Hobo | Casual Weathered Fabric Handbag
B. Makowsky's ditched his usual leather for fabric to create this casual Ollie satchel.
While soft materials are often regarded as leather's poor cousins, I don't feel shortchanged by the fabric. Its weathered finish reminds me of denim, and it shares the same casual appeal. The ...
Anne Klein Anchors Away Hobo | Chic Nautical PVC Handbag
Nautical inspired accessories are perfect for summer, but all those anchors and rope accents can look kitschy. Anne Klein interprets the look the right way with this Anchors Away Hobo.
It seems a stretch to call this bag a hobo, because its clean lines ...
Nixon Boardwalk Hobo | Casual Weathered Leatherette Purse
Its name conjures up images of eating ice-cream by the Jersey Shore, but Nixon's Boardwalk is really a bag for all seasons.
It takes its cues from traditional hobos, but it downplays the style's typical boho leanings. There are no tassels or beads to tizzy up the design. ...
Olivia Harris by Joy Gryson Columbier Hobo | Bohemian Woven Straw & Leather Handbag
Joy Gryson takes bohemian style a step too far with this Columbier bag from her Olivia Harris line.
Hobos generally have a relaxed hippie charm about them, but most manage to pull off the look with more style than this. The earthiness ...
Hobo International Paulette Hobo | Vintage Italian Leather Handbag
Soft glazed leather helps this Paulette handbag from Hobo International turn heads.
I've seen the Paulette in various skins, including glossy patents and exotic impersonators, but this buttery leather is the pick of them. We've seen it in Hobo International's other Vintage purses, but it's used ...
Lockheart Compleat Flynn Hobo | Ruffled Pear Leather Purse
The unique ruffled finish on this Compleat Flynn from Lockheart helps it stand above the other hobos.
Ruffled bags tend to look flouncy and feminine, but Lockheart's given the familiar accent a more modern feel. Its ruffles are very tight and very small, unlike those soft ...
Big Buddha Pearl Hobo | Reversible Red Textured Chevron Stitched Handbag
Big Buddha takes its cues from Miu Miu with this Pearl hobo.
The Pearl's chevron stitching mimics Miu Miu's iconic Matelasse finish. I wouldn't say that it's a carbon copy, but it's definitely derivative. It doesn't have the same attention to detail, and as it's decorating ...
Big Buddha Cassandra Hobo | Mid-Sized Woven Synthetic Handbag
Big Buddha gets us ready for summer with this casual Cassandra Hobo.
It appears like so many woven raffia purses, but the Cassandra is actually crafted from synthetic leather. By using nude leatherette Big Buddha's ensured the finish has the same seaside charm as the natural ...
Botkier Apollo Hobo | Casual Belted Green Lambskin Handbag
Sumptuously soft lambskin and a rich bottle green hue make this Apollo bag one of the most desirable hobos I've seen in some time.
Lambskin is an ideal material for crafting a traditional hobo, because its buttery finish slouches so easily. We can see its quality in every ...
Radley Whitmore Punch Hobo Bag | Medium Perforated Public Leather Handbag
Ever since I was small, I've loved purple. My mother insisted I'd tire of the color, yet even as a thirtysomething the sight of this rich regal hue makes me weak at the knees. Radley's used the color to great effect in its Whitmore Punch ...
Lola Bernard Modena Hobo | Croc Embossed Coffee Leather Handbag
The Modena sounds good on paper, but sadly this is just another lacklustre hobo from Lola Bernard.
I'm not entirely sure where Lola Bernard went wrong here. She's used real leather rather than that cheap synthetic stuff. She's also added some crocodile-esque embossing to make the ...
Gucci Jungle Hobo Bag | Bohemian Caramel Leather Handbag
Has Gucci created a bag that's casually cool with the Jungle Hobo, or is it simply not trying? Honestly I'm not quite sure.
Making up my mind gives me a chance to take in the Jungle's lush caramel colored leather and distinctive hobo slouch. The long tassel gives ...
Pour La Victoire Jagger Hobo | Classic Taupe Leather Studded Hobo
With the classic style and rock star flair of its namesake comes the Jagger hobo from Pour La Victoire.
Initially I was disappointed that the accents were kept to a minimum, but the more I look at the Jagger the more I appreciate its ...
The SAK Olema Hobo | Classic Bohemian Brown Leather Handbag
Clean lines and a bohemian spirit make this Olema hobo from The SAK something special.
I love the way The SAK strikes the right balance between boho-chic and true sophistication. Its silhouette isn't as slouchy as many hobos, which makes it more dressed up than the ...
Stone Mountain Isabella Hobo | Large Retro Colorblocked Handbag
Colorblocked panels help this Isabella hobo from Stone Mountain turn heads.
We know the label for its conservative casual leather goods, so it's surprising to see it using its favorite material more sparingly here. Instead it opts for soft suede, and uses only a touch of ...
Salvatore Ferragamo Ceyla Hobo | Sophisticated Woven Leather Bag with Wooden Handle
With this Ceyla Hobo, Salvatore Ferragamo proves Bottega Veneta isn't the only fashion house with a way with weaves.
It's been a long time since I've seen a woven finish as striking as this one. Salvatore Ferragamo has manipulated leather strips of various lengths to create ...
Lauren by Ralph Lauren Harbridge Hobo | Large Cobra Embossed Leather Handbag
Ralph Lauren helps us add a touch of luxury to our everyday lives with this Harbridge Hobo.
The soft curves and slouchy silhouette are classic hobo, but the snake-embossed surface makes it feel more sophisticated than the average. It's not the most convincing cobra mimic, but ...
Pilar Abril Coco Hobo | Chic Brown Leather Handbag
Pilar Abril gives the hobo a sophisticated makeover with the Coco.
Instead of the hobo's characteristic slouch, the Coco has clean smooth lines. Its curves mimic the hobos of old, but they come with much more elegance and refinement. In fact, the long tassel is the ...
Mulberry Evelina Hobo | Sophisticated Khaki Pebbled Leather Handbag
Mulberry's business is going from strength to strength, and when it releases handbags as stylish as the Evelina it's not hard to see why.
This hobo strips away the bohemian image from the handbag style, leaving clean, cool lines in the place of a slouchy silhouette. This more ...
Miquelrius Sweet Leather Hobo | Jordi Labanda Debossed Illustration Handbag
Miquelrius offers us a more luxurious handbag than usual with this Sweet Leather hobo.
While most Miquelrius bags are made from canvas, this one's crafted from leather, or sweet leather as Miquelrius tells us. I'm not sure whether it's quite as delicious as that description implies, ...
Mellow World Hollywood Hobo | Affordable Leaf Decorated White Leatherette Handbag
Hollywood isn't all about beautiful actors and actresses earning the big bucks. For every star there's a hundred busboys and waitresses looking for their big break. Perhaps Mellow World had these starry-eyed folks in mind when it created its Hollywood hobo.
The celebrities carry high-end designer ...
Melie Bianco Alyssa Hobo | Large Expandable Synthetic Carry-All
Melie Bianco has created its fair share of "designer influenced" accessories, but I think it's at its best when it's marching to the beat of its own drum. When it strikes off on its own and refuses to bow to fads it creates practical purses ...
Laurel & Sunset Utilitarian Hobo Bag | Convertible Practical Brown Leatherette Handbag
According to dictionary definitions, utilitarian is a word describing something designed for use rather than beauty. So it's only fitting that Laurel & Sunset's used the word to christen this hobo bag.
I wouldn't say the Utilitarian's an ugly duckling, but it clearly puts ...
Jalda Masha Hobo | Black Fabric & Leather Everyday Bag
Jalda reminds us that fabric can be every bit as beautiful as its favorite leathers with the Masha.
Honestly I thought this hobo was made entirely from leather at first. However it's actually crafted from superior Italian fabric. The softer material creates a more natural hobo slouch, while ...
Gustto Masilia Hobo | Slit Detailed Taupe Leather Handbag
Gustto brings some contemporary edge to the bohemian hobo style with this Masilia bag.
At its heart this is a classic hobo bag, with soft curves and a slouchy silhouette. The soft taupe color is right on trend, but it also gives this hobo a distinctly hippie air. ...
Guess Priscilla Hobo | Large Soft Pink Pleated Faux Leather Handbag
Embrace your feminine side with this Priscilla hobo from Guess.
This may be the girliest hobo I've ever encountered. It's more floaty and frothy than slouchy, and its faux leather finish is in a pretty pastel pink. This hue is well chosen, as it's girly without being obnoxiously ...
Global Elements Suede Hobo | Brown Beaded Flower Purse
Global Elements takes a break from its usual tribal inspired fare to create this Suede Hobo.
This hobo has a unique homespun charm to it. It's not very high class, but there's a sweetness to its fun floral accents and classic brown suede finish. It's the ...
Givenchy Obsedia Hobo | Chic Medium Brown Textured Leather Handbag
Givenchy gives the classic hobo a fashion forward makeover with the Obsedia.
Givenchy's retained elements of the traditional style, but made the finish much more sophisticated. There's a gentle slouch to the material, but it's so thick and lush that it doesn't collapse in a heap. That added ...
Ed Hardy Tina Hobo | Signature Synthetic Print Metallic Bag
Ed Hardy's back to his self-promoting best with this Tina hobo.
It's got the slouchy silhouette we expect to see on a hobo, but that's where the similarities end. The bohemian vibe typical of the style has been stripped away and replaced with a much brasher ...
Donald J Pliner Logan Hobo | Spacious Brown Glazed Leather Handbag
Donald J Pliner's created a great everyday hobo in the Logan.
In many ways this is a hobo like so many others, but there are a few key details that have turned my head. I love the way Donald J Pliner has taken the ...
Cleobella Electra Fringe Hobo | Bohemian Brown Cotton Handbag
Cleobella delivers the handbag equivalent of Cousin It with this Electra Fringe Hobo.
When used well fringing can create a fun western or bohemian vibe. But too much, as we see here, and a bag just seems hairy. The accents dominate the design rather than enhancing it, which ...
Chocolate Danielle Hobo | Red Synthetic Handbag with Studded Handle
A smattering of studs and gemstones brings a glamorous edge to Chocolate's classic Danielle Hobo.
While it doesn't have the crescent shape of the first hobos, its slouchy finish makes it look much closer to a hobo than many modern incarnations. The relaxed silhouette makes the Danielle perfect ...
Bottega Veneta Belly Bag | Sophisticated Woven Navy Leather Hobo Handbag
It's got a silly name, but this Belly Bag from Bottega Veneta oozes sophisticated style.
The cute moniker perhaps stems from this hobo's softly rounded shape. If we use our imaginations I suppose we could see it like the portly tummy of a jolly old man. ...
