Default I need your opinions

So I'm looking for a leather hobo under $400 for everyday use but I can't make up my mind between the Francesco Biasia Glamour Girl or the Marc by Marc Turn-lock Leather hobo. Which one do you prefer and does anyone have a code for discounts or any other suggestion?

As much as I am a HUGE Marc fan, I would say go for the other one. The way the MJ hobo is shaped, it doesn't look like it can carry alot. Then again, if you are looking for something casually, then maybe the Marc is better. The Totally Turnlock line has really smooshy, soft leather.

the MJ is crazy small.. not really that great for an everyday bag... the size and shape is deceiving.

I can't say enough about the Francesco Biasia bag. I have two and I love the leather on both. I don't have a Marc, so can't really compare, but I know for sure that I could have more FB's!!!!

Thanks Luna, there were no dimensions on the Marc hobo on the NM website anyways so it's nice to know. I'm gonna get the FB! By the way, pinkmascara.com sells authentic right? Cos that's where I saw it
