^^ lulu I have MORE than 7 bags now! I totally went out of control the past two months. Now I have to purge if I want to go back to being good, but oh man... I can't think of anything to let go of! lol
wow that gray pushover was REALLY in bad shape. i wonder if the person is going to take it to be cleaned professionally.
moth i know what u mean... i'm going to spray my natural pushover. i don't want it looking grungy. i don't mind it aging naturally tho. going to try Wilson's on the tag first tho. i'm totally paranoid. i used LMB on some other bags, and it totally darkened it and made it look matte when it was orginally glossy. i think it's good for certain bags. it makes my black bags look really nice.

It's an older style I've seen references to it coming in Ink and Loganberry. Mine is a sample that is larger than the production model. I'll post my photos later.

49 Square miles Two Timer Hobo
49 Square Miles
A winning variation on 49 Square Miles' Big Mouth Hobo (over there on the left), the Two Timer Hobo moves its two outer zipped pockets to the ends of the bag, leaving the middle a beautifully clean slate. Thanks to hidden magnets, the pockets' folded-over tops stay extra secure. Another concealed magnet closes the cotton-lined main compartment, which opens to reveal an additional zipped area and two open pockets that keep your cell phone, lip balm, and other necessities at the ready. We love the Two Timer's slouchy style, and, as usual, we're crazy about the hammered brass hardware that puts 49 Square Miles bags in a class all their own. Given the softness of the leather and the Two Timer's charm, this practical bag is sure to become your one-and-only.Shoulder drop: 11" Bag dimensions: H: 13" x W: 18".
original price: $548.00

Here are more pictures of my two timer. I believe it has similar proportions to the production model but is larger.

has the same strap as the big mouth
a repeat to show the general shape.

mothbeast - I LOVE your turquoise two-timer! That was a great find. I wish I could make it to a sample sale, but L.A. is a really long drive to S.F.!

I like it. It looks too big for me but I love a lot of the styling of the bag. I like in the picture how it looks like it can be worn crossbody or as a shoulder bag when you knot the strap. It looks a lot like the pushover so I presume they are similar in size.

Snowed in and miserable here in Jersey. I feel like buying myself something pretty, but can't break the bank. Any suggestions?

It is cute, and the 49 SQ MI site has the lilac one for $38. I just don't know if I'd use it.
