Prada Stripes Multicolor Small Hobo

Prada Stripes Multicolor Small Hobo

On Friday night my parents had a dinner party that Vlad and I attended. Of course all of my moms friends know that I am the 'bag lady' and many times they ask me what I think of their handbag. The same handbag-loving-friend of my mom who carried the Michael Kors Watchband Clutch to the last event we saw her at was again carrying a new stunner. As she walked in the house and greeted us, my eyes were drawn to her Prada bag and as I stared at the bag I instantly fell in love. She was carrying the Prada Stripes Multicolor Small Hobo in the turquoise-violet combination which looked divine and really was the perfect size. The small version adds the right amount of color splash and spunk, while not taking away from the overall outfit or look. The leather is supple Nappa, which is smooshy to the touch and perfect to showoff the colors. The top handle and shoulder strap are detachable, but I loved this being carried with the small top handle. Dimensions are 9½"W X 7"H X 3½"D. I first posted about the Prada Trembled Blossoms Bag and found it captivating yet pricey for the small size. Now I find it captivating, pricey for its size, but worth it. Buy through Saks for $1675.

love the leather on this bag, but the color combinations are not my favorite. There is another combo I prefer a bit more. This is a fun bag though.

I love that purple and pink combo...so pretty

I am def. more of a fan of the purple/pink combo. Its TDF!

Pretty design but fugly colors.

Actually Megs I must agree with you in saying this purse is really growing on me. The blue version has really caught my attention this time around... the purple tone bag is still not for me though. I am generally quite boring when it comes to colour in purses - but now I am eager to see and hold this purse IRL. I love that this bag can be worn two ways... although I prefer the handle version (never a fan of wearing small bags over the shoulder). I think i added earlier that I liked the gold detailing too. I am really glad to see this beauty again - yep... loving the blue.

Not feeling this bag at all.

I'm jonesing for this bag, but will have to buy it next year, I guess.
I really love it!

I heart the pink/purple one

Sad to say that I don't love it. Both the brightness of the colors and the multi-color pattern itself seem limiting in terms of what you can wear it with. For that much money, I feel like it should work with almost everything in your closet. I do like the multiple strap/no strap options a lot, though!
