Congratulations!! Beautiful bag!! Know what you mean about being undecided about the large hobo, I, too, was on the fence with my large Cocoa Marcie, but after carrying her for a few days, I'm loving the way it slouches and softens. I just posted a pic in the Chloe in Action thread. Once you carry your things around in it for a few days, it takes on more of a horseshoe shape. Both are great bags and each one has it's own look.
