The design of the Treesje Kingsley hobo shares quite a few similarities with the trendy features of the Botkier Uma satchel with its slouchy ruched body and zippered detail. Actually, the two designer brands really aren’t that far apart in their overall styles.
The main difference between the Uma and this Treesje handbag is the size. The Mini Kingsley hobo is shorter and somewhat smaller in width. However, for being categorized as a “mini” bag, I’m impressed by the space that it offers.
I’m guessing that it’s only called mini because Treesje also has a slightly larger version of the style, which is several inches wider and just a bit taller. Frankly, there’s not a whole lot of difference except that the regular Kingsley is about $70 more. If you’re buying with style in mind over size, the Mini hobo is definitely the better pick.
The long double handles are convenient and comfortable for carrying the purse. Bright gold-toned hardware complements the glazed Italian leather beautifully. The Mini Kingsley is available in this pretty deep blue, which fits right in with recent fashion week trends, and cherry red. This Treesje hobo retails for $555.
