Prada Ruched Hobo

My initial response to this bag was eww but you have to give it a second because it has totally grown on me. It is simply adorable and lovable, like a sharpei. At first glance you want to hate it but then suddenly, all you want to do is hug it! I would love to see this in another color, maybe a plum, but this graphite will certainly suit all your needs for Fall. It is also very functional with a deep shoulder drop (9″) on the thick strap and quite roomy with the big round bubble shape. If the ruffles were horizontal, it would be a whole other story because it would look like a skirt you wear for some Latin dancing. I find that Prada has been grasping for a while now but they are again doing bags that make girls want to stop paying rent to get one on their arms. I even think the nylon backpacks are something I want to bring back. They still sell them, always did, but now it is totally retro and it wasn’t like backpacks were no longer useful. I am thinking of getting a white one for the summer with all traveling and outdoor activities. And with the nylon you can definitely go white because it cleans up beautifully with just mild soap and a soft cloth. The ruched hobo is $2120, shop Prada at Saks.

    I looked at it for many seconds and didn´t get it. I don´t think that this a everyday bag.Maybe you could use it once or twice,that´s about it. The price for such a bag is very high.

    I’m still at the initial response. I just don’t get it, either.

    I like it. I think it’s a very fun bag for a simple outfit..perhaps a black tank, nice jeans and sexy heels. (:

    I know I’m speaking as a guy who would never use it…but you have got to be kidding me…I look at it and say…was Prada desperately looking for something to do? Saying let’s take our bags from last season and just runch it up a bit, make it all black, and sell it again…

    That bag is so beautiful! It would look amazing for a night out, or perfect to dress up a simple outfit with some heels. I just got the most precious clutch the other day:

    I would definitely NOT waste the equivalent of 1000 pounds on this dull and…might as well say it…UGLY bag. I don’t care if it’s Prada or not, it’s not like I’m going to go walking with the label hanging outside the bag so that people can see that it’s not bought at the flea market. I have a problem with designer bags that cost an arm and a leg but look incredibly cheap! I’m expecting some sophistication and quality for my money. I bought a gorgeous Chanel bag yesterday, UK limited edition and it was around 1000 pounds/2000 dollars too and this one doesn’t even come close to its quality. I liked Kelly’s joke with girls not paying rent just to buy the latest bag, but honestly…it has to be better than this one.
