Default In search for a new bag!

Hi ladies! Ever since I got my first tano, I have been researching my brains out trying to find the perfect school bag, in ALL black with SILVER hardware. I want to find the perfect hobo thats at least 16 (preferably 18) inches wide. I fell in love with the silhouette and size of the Amanda Playwith, but found out it has brown trim!

Are there any bags out there that might fit what I am looking for? TIA!

(if not, just name off some random bags you can think of ;P I'll be bound to find something!)

The only thing that comes to my mind is the Cooped up which is a bit smaller than your specifications (15x14x5 approx) and it had brown handles/straps. Once again I am talking about a past season bag so the pickings are gonna be slim or none. It does hold a lot. Here are pics of my Cooped up and all the stuff it can carry in this thread:

How about a black on black Boogie? A bit smaller but a pretty HOT bag!

2nd the black Boogie, or the Butane Jane, though they are a bit smaller than what you're looking for.

I am checking out the boogie, I think if it looks great on me, that might be the perfect one. I do like the Butane Jane, but it wont be too good for me daily.

I am 5`9 and I find that tote/shoulder/hobo bags on me look best at 18inch+

What about the Up Close and Personal? It's a tote not a hobo but it's black with silver hardware and seems like it would be a good size for a school bag...(MHB has pics in tuffle, LB has pics in black but it says black is available on both sites)

http://www.lunaboston.com/ProductInfo/Tano/19818.aspx I totally want it in grape!

Or.. the budding romance (it has a little white on it though) is a satchel style bag but meets the size you want:

Hmmm...I think the Boogie would be too small for your liking. What about the Getting Warmer? It's awesome in all black with silver hardware. I know it has the long strap but it also has the shorter one to wear as a hobo. And it's 14" w so that's almost 16.

UC&P is really nice but too small for me =[ Getting warmer is nice but still too small. I think I might go for the Amanda Playwith, I have to see it in person first.

Thanks you guys!

I love the street walker. That would actually probably work for a school bag ....
I know it may be a bit smaller, but I think a minilisa might work as a school bag. It's a hobo, does come in black, but it might be a bit smaller than you are looking for.
The Most Mysterious is a large hobo, but it has the dark brown trim. The Shopper looks like a boogie bucket but bigger. And you still have the darn dark brown trim.
I am not much help, really. I guess TanoExpert really needs to answer your question.

I think the SW might be my best bet as of now. Everything has brown trim! hahaha ARGH! If it has brown trim, to me that means I cant wear it with my greys and other more edgy colors.

I hope the SW would be a great fit on me =[ Its really cute too hahaha.

the cooped up was in crunch leather and it had silver hardware- but this bag in velvet will have brass hardware. This bag was made exclusively for Bergdorfs this season. This dealer must have bought one of the few extra pieces that Tano gets with every shipment in case of any damages.
