Furla Elisabeth Camoscio/Croco Hobo
 I’m not a big suede fan. It looks kind of dated and at times kind of cheap, and because of the texture, it gets dirty oh-so-quickly. I’ve never seriously considered buying a suede bag, and I doubt that I will any time soon. It’s not part of my personal style.But someone’s got to be buying them, because people keep making them. And if you’re in the market for suede, the Furla Elisabeth Camoscio/Croco Hobo might just be a great bet.  This bag is so thoroughly not my thing, but I can totally see why someone with a more conservative aesthetic (or that has a lifestyle need for more conservative bags) might like it. It looks roomy and comfortable, and the suede, despite being suede, looks pretty lush and touchable. The name of the bag seems to promise more croco-stamped trim than it delivers, but the extra carrying strap is a practical touch, even if webbing looks super cheap. As always, I’d take it off, but not everyone has the same bag habits I do. What do you think? Would you happily carry this bag? Buy through Saks for $475. View the original post on PurseBlog Savvy! |

For me I really don't like the look of the fabric strap with the suede.

This is a good bag for someone who's in hiding, since it's unobstrusive.
Call this the Witness Protection Tote. |

That is truly a gorgeous bag, but I know that if I would wear it one time, the denim dye would rub right off on that bag for the rest of it's life!

It's pretty. But I haven't used suede in years. I'm sure that light color would be hard to keep clean.
