Bally Bohemian Floral Hobo: Snob or Slob?
By Bag Snob Tina on March 2, 2009 12:00 pm Tina Craig

ballyfloralbag.jpg

I have been eyeing Bally bags for a year now and am quite impressed with Brian Atwood‘s efforts thus far.  I am even swayed by this floral hobo… a bit.  It’s not really my style but I see the appeal in the beautifully embroidered flowers and the gorgeous colors for a boho chic girl.  This could have been really tacky but Bally really pulled off the look without offending the senses.  Even the price is fairly reasonable at $1,173 considering the handiwork!

It’s a large suede hobo which is usually best in Fall but the spring flowers will allow you to rock this all year long.

I saw Bally everywhere in London and Paris on the arms of the nonchalantly chic.  I’d love to carry this with a whispery white summer dress. See BALLY – FLORAL EMBROIDERED HOBO SHOULDER BAG here.

What do you think?  Snob or Slob?

    Somehow this bag reminds me of the cheap Spanish bags tourists would buy ages ago from Mallorca and other places. Therefore I say-slob !

    The bag is a nice design with all the perfect details – except the flowers. Wouldn’t surprise me to see the same thing at Sheplers with matching cowboy boots.

    Slob! The flowers ruin the gorgeous bag. Hoped they would use a different print like dragonflies, lady bugs or even grapes. Not flowers…

    White or cream would be a better color with pastel print.

    This looks like something Isabella Fiore would have done three years ago – the last time Boho chic was happening. Not very original but I still kinda like it.

    I loooove this bag. I had to jump through hoops to get the last avaiable one in Germany. For 40% off. The leather is absolutely perfect. Very soft and beautiful. I looks so much better “in person”.
