Bulga delivers a glitzy glamourpuss of a purse in the Misa hobo.
While it’s called a hobo, it doesn’t have the crescent shape or boho feel we associate with these type of bags. Sure it’s slouchy, but so are a lot of purses. In fact, the Misa bears a striking resemblance to the De Beber satchel! But while the De Beber is smart and sensible, the Misa is a party animal. Snakeskin is never a shy print, and the shiny silver color only adds to the effect. It’s safe to say this will be too loud for many, but it’s still bound to have its admirers.
The thing I love most about the Misa is that, unlike many other showy bags, it doesn’t forget about the practical perks. Two round zippered pouches sit side by side, giving the purse that motorcycle feel it shares with the De Beber. The addition of pockets to that loud fabric could easily have become confused, but by keeping the satchel’s shape simple and the embellishments at bay it works well.
The zippered entry with its braided pull opens to reveal a space which is generous, but not overwhelming. It may have been considered large once upon a time, but today it’s probably regarded as medium. Whatever the case, it’s big enough to carry your daily must-haves without weighing you down. That’s a good thing too, because the stiff too-short straps don’t make carrying easy.
If you’re a disco queen this glittering hobo may be right up your alley.
