Leather and lace might be appropriate for after five, but if you’re looking for a casual yet stylish everyday look you can’t go past the combination of leather and linen. The fabrics take center stage in this chic Diana hobo from Rafe.
The natural linen is accented with lush ostrich leather belt straps and trim. You can play is safe with the white and brown varieties, but I prefer the summery pop of this blue trimmed bag. You definitely don’t need to wait for warm weather to appreciate this fresh Mediterranean look! A long tasseled drawstring adds a dash of flirty fun, while helping to secure the front pocket.
That front pocket is just the start of the Diana’s storage options. The bag may be slim lined, but Rafe have still found the room to include a zip pocket on either side. There’s also another slip pocket in the back, perfect for those valuables you want to carry close to your body. And that’s all before you even open the bag up! Unzip the top to reveal a medium-sized interior that’s ideal for everyday use. Two more slip pockets and a zippered compartment make organization a breeze.
Linen isn’t expensive, but ostrich leather is and it’s this exotic trim which puts the Diana out of the reach of many. The $450 price tag seems exorbitant for that little scrap of luxury leather, but this purse is so pretty and practical it’s still hard to resist.
