With summer approaching I’m stashing away my thick leather bags and looking for more whimsical, lightweight alternatives. With its playful tassel and gentle checked finish, the Alexis from Donna Sharp fits the bill.
The Alexis is Donna Sharp’s answer to the hobo. Its shape is more bucket than crescent, and it doesn’t have that enviable slouch of a good quality leather, but it does stay true to the hobo’s bohemian spirit. The embroidered strip along the top is the perfect complement to the checks of this Rosemary print. If this subtle pattern doesn’t grab you don’t worry; Donna Sharp offers the Alexis in many more.
You probably don’t expect a lot of bells and whistles at this point, so the simple appointed interior shouldn’t come as a great surprise. But there’s enough space to satisfy all but the pickiest bagista, and enough pockets to keep your essentials in order.
I know once the cool weather returns I’ll reach for my classic leather bags again, but for just $40 I don’t mind if the Alexis spends a good part of the year at the back of my closet.
