CC Skye Love 82 Hobo | Sophisticated Slouchy Leather Handbag

Posted on: Apr 18

CC Skye has outdone itself with this gorgeous hobo bag. It's called the Love 82, and that's exactly the emotion it inspires in me!

Often the slouch of a hobo makes it look slovenly, but not so here. The soft body only makes the luxury leather appear more opulent. The gentle pleats are undeniably feminine, but the classic colors ensure it doesn't appear too girly.

The interior is almost extravagantly large, but I think it works here. There are zip and slip pockets to take care of gadgets and valuables, and a clip to keep your keys within easy reach. The pale lining isn't the most practical – I expect it to show pen stains and make-up marks before long – but I'm willing to forgive CC Skye this little misstep.

I prefer the Love 82 in matte colors, whether traditionally textured as it is here or embossed in an exotic pattern. The black and white snake print simply looks too busy; the pleats become lost in the mottled scales and it's a great shame. Keep it simple and you'll shine carrying this luxury hobo.
