"Hobo Purses: A Chic Alternative to Leather Tote Bags"

Big Buddha Woven Hobo Bag from Baghaus

What sets the leather hobo handbag apart from other bags is the casual and chic appearance. Not to mention, that they're durable and a little bit more luxurious-looking than other materials like for example suede and nylon. Typical hobo purses are medium to large-sized with a crescent shape and rounded corners.

The neat thing about them is that they're made of soft and flexible material that tends to slouch when you put it down. It's the perfect handbag for the gal with laidback bohemian style! However, you'll also find many classy designs that are more appropriate for office work.

The leather hobo bag (along with leather tote bags and Fendi spy bags) is a popular choice among celebrity fashionistas like Sienna Miller, Nicole Richie and Mary Kate Olsen. They like to carry something practical yet stylish to stuff in a lot of their things. And in the Californian climate it's nice to have a bag that channels their casual style while they're on the go! It goes great with relaxed jeans, simple dresses and tees. However you can wear it with a sophisticated trench coat or black slacks (reminds you of dress pants) to look elegant without coming out too strong and authoritative.

Hobo purses in leather are one of my personal favorite fashion accessories, I have at least 10 of them!
