Kristin! I have that bag, look at my pics. It has some structure to it unlike the Brooke.
I already have a Mahogany Brooke. It's sooooooooooo supple and yummy! I love it. Probably the most comfortable purse I have and the only one I've ever been complimented on by strangers. I have absolutely no regrets about buying her.
On the other hand....I want the black Kristen hobo. I like how I can wear it cross-body and be hands free. I'm not crazy about taupe but love the yellow and peach.
