Default Gucci Galaxy Slouchy Metallic Leather Hobo
And now I can say that I am finding myself staring at a funky and fun Gucci Bag. I know, right? Been a long time since Gucci really wowed us. There have been a few contenders, a few bags that attempted to win their way back into our hearts, and this handbag is another.

Nothing about the Gucci Galaxy Slouchy Metallic Leather Hobo reinvents the wheel, but the shape is wearable and the lustrous blue metallic leather brings an edgy touch.





I’m digging the slouchy and comfortable shape of the bag, which has an ample shoulder drop of 19″. The single chain link shoulder strap adds the perfect spunk to the already attention-getting blue metallic leather. This is an overall simple bag, but an option rather than going for simple black leather and getting a slight blue sheen which will still work with many outfits. Dimensions are 10.4″W X 14.2″H X 5″D. Buy through Saks for $1050.

Pretty but not a fan of the chain.

I like the effect on the leather, but the design is so plain and boring...$250 is more like it.

I saw this worn IRL and I liked it, but maybe a young look?
