B. Makowsky puts a modern twist on the traditional hobo with the Westport.
While it might sound like it came from an exclusive private school, the Westport isn’t too different from any traditional hobo. It’s more boho-chic than straight-laced, with slouchy soft leather and relaxed style.
But the Westport isn’t just another run-of-the-mill hobo bag. The front features soft braiding, which is mimicked on the gently twisted straps. Ordinarily braided handles can be uncomfortable to carry, but by keeping the braiding soft we should have no such complaints.
With such a conservative color palette, it’s refreshing to see the Westport let loose inside. The medium-sized space is lined with leopard-print fabric, but it’s not entirely frivolous. There are two slip pockets, and zippered pouch, and a fob for holding your keys. I”m glad to see all these pockets considering the ones on the outside are a little too skinny to be really useful!
The Westport is a great option for girls looking to complete their hippie chick ensemble or add a little boho style to their everyday wardrobe.
