52 years old.....
Hobos became quite popular when I was a teenager....I have tried to carry small bags, satchels, clutch bags, but I find myself consistently going back to a hobo.
I have had RM MACS and never carried them. Always thought it would be appropriate for that "special occasion", but my lifestyle does not have them!
Plus I had trouble getting my long wallets in and out.
I have had RM MABS that I used for a while and then decided they were just too heavy and I wanted a wider mouth opening.
Right now I have a Longchamp Legende, which is a satchel, but can be shoulder carried....I like it, but its not as structured as I wanted (in the fact that I wanted a satchel). Its a very soft supple leather....I am carrying it now.
I also have a Tods Coated Canvas Sagomata for the summer..
I have carried Tods leather bags, even had 3 Bottegas, but they still didnt fill the bill..I have had Mulberry too.
Right now, I have an Elena Ghisellini Pebbled Leather bag, which is very similar to the Givenchy Pandora...its a great bag. She is a designer for Givenchy.
I also have 3 RM Nikkis and even though they are heavy, they are my go to bag....
I have discovered through a lot of trial and error that these are the things I DO NOT like about bags:
1) I am a one strapper. 2 straps or handles annoy me.
2) I am a hardware minimalist. The less the better.
Does anyone have any suggestions for me for the year? I almost bought a YSL Roady a couple of years ago, when I was buying all the Tods and BVs....I guess I should have and then I would be more satisfied and my bank account would be happier!
Any suggestions as to the direction I should look?
