Is this Marc by Marc Jacobs hobo supposed to go "in" in the middle like this?

[jackie100]

I've never had a hobo before but I bought this bag impulsively and I don't know if I should keep it or not. It looks a bit weird when I put my makeupbag and wallet in there; the shape looks a bit weird and it bunches up and goes in at the middle... Is it supposed to be like this??

I don't have that bag, but given the width of it I can't see how it wouldn't? Unless something long like a ZC was in the center and stayed there... but then again it would make it scrunch elsewhere.

I've never seen a hobo not scrunch in some way though.

Sorry I can't be of more help! Someone else that has this bag will soon chime in

I think if it's not filled to the top it's going to do that. Looks OK to me.

 

[jackie100]

Ok, thanks... I guess I'm just not used to it... that's all...

I think the bag is supposed to fall this way - it seems to be like a slouchy hobo design.

 

[jackie100]

I don't know if I like it or not... What do you guys think?

 

[gypsybiker59]

I think it looks great on you

Which one do you guys like better? The mevie hobo one or the Liz Riz and why? They are both around the same price... What do you guys think?

i definitely prefer the black hobo. i am not a fan of croc-embossed bags though

 

[K.Z.]

^ Ditto. The black hobo.

 

[tadpolenyc]

it looks fine to me. all hobos slouch in the middle. i definitely prefer the mevie to the croc riz. there are issues with the latter, so i would avoid getting it and keep what you have.

 

[gypsybiker59]

I'm with tad, I definitely prefer the mevie...

 

[jackie100]

Thanks guys! Can you guys think of anything similar in the price range of the Mevie which is also cute and also made out of leather, not nylon? I'm just trying to see if there is anything else out there...

 

[jackie100]

Also, do you think the Mevie bag would look ok too with a suit or a pencil skirt or is it more like a casual bag? I want something versatile I can wear with both jeans but also with a pencil skirt/suit etc

I vote for a Teri or Faridah...same outer pockets with the turnlocks. There's a sage Faridah on Nordstrom's site for $299.99. Oh, how I wish I could get it!
