I just LOVE it - everything about it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mini-cross-body-bag-the-first-few-would-love-your-input#post-319505 Wed, 23 Mar 2011 19:50:13 +0000 CocoLion 319505@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote for the third, PIetro Allesandro bag. It's got enough room and I like the shape, it will hug your body. Agree, unadjustable is a drag but the length looks ok to me. I like to wear mine pushed back a little rather than in front. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mini-cross-body-bag-the-first-few-would-love-your-input#post-319497 Wed, 23 Mar 2011 19:38:31 +0000 Inge 319497@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>And then I searched some more...</p> <p><a href="http://www.kohls.com/kohlsStore/womens/handbagswallets/crossbody/PRD~746595/Mundi+Multitasker+Rockin+Crocodile+CrossBody+Handbag.jsp?prtID=pfx&#038;src=k108283&#038;cm_mmc=Performics-_-Affiliate-_-ShopStyle.com-_-Primary" rel="nofollow">http://www.kohls.com/kohlsStor.....-_-Primary</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.dillards.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?catalogId=301&#038;storeId=301&#038;langId=-1&#038;productId=502557397&#038;linkshare=http://www.shopstyle.com/affiliate" rel="nofollow">http://www.dillards.com/webapp...../affiliate</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.zappos.com/linea-pelle-dylan-perf-cross-body-suntan" rel="nofollow">http://www.zappos.com/linea-pe.....ody-suntan</a><br /> (in purple)</p> <p><a href="http://www.kohls.com/kohlsStore/womens/handbagswallets/crossbody/PRD~754112/Dana+Buchman+Jessica+CrossBody+Handbag.jsp?prtID=pfx&#038;src=k108283&#038;cm_mmc=Performics-_-Affiliate-_-ShopStyle.com-_-Primary" rel="nofollow">http://www.kohls.com/kohlsStor.....-_-Primary</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.endless.com/dp/B002NKM5NU/ref=asc_df_B002NKM5NU1391474?tag=endlesscj-20&#038;creative=395033&#038;linkCode=asn&#038;creativeASIN=B002NKM5NU" rel="nofollow">http://www.endless.com/dp/B002.....B002NKM5NU</a></p> <p><a href="http://couture.zappos.com/n/p/p/7715773/c/421.html" rel="nofollow">http://couture.zappos.com/n/p/p/7715773/c/421.html</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.zappos.com/matt-nat-hendrix-nappa-black" rel="nofollow">http://www.zappos.com/matt-nat-hendrix-nappa-black</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mini-cross-body-bag-the-first-few-would-love-your-input#post-319493 Wed, 23 Mar 2011 19:33:50 +0000 Angie 319493@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>*smiling* !!!</p> <p>There is no competition in my book, Antje. #1 is KILLER and hands down the best to my eye (and I've seen it in real life too).

I really like the chain more than a strap on these for some reason. The third bag is my least favorite. It just seems blah and utilitarian compared to the first one in about the same color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mini-cross-body-bag-the-first-few-would-love-your-input#post-319481 Wed, 23 Mar 2011 19:20:38 +0000 catgirl 319481@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I adore the second Hobo one (they also had it in orange and red, yes?), but when I saw it at Nordie's it was TINY! Have you tested to see if what you need to carry will actually fit? And yes, it was way pricier than a couple of the other Hobo versions.</p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/hobo-international-holiday-vintage-aster-chain-strap-mini-bag/3141353?origin=keywordsearch&#038;resultback=939" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/ho.....ltback=939</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mini-cross-body-bag-the-first-few-would-love-your-input#post-319480 Wed, 23 Mar 2011 19:20:28 +0000 Inge 319480@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fantastic that they arrived already!</p> <p>As far as style is concerned, my favourite is still the Hobo International, and yes, that green would be fantastic. However, I feel it is a little too small or maybe it's just because it sits a little higher on you. I prefer the length of bag 1 and 3.</p> <p>I like 1 but wished it had the fun lock detailing or something else 'on the front'.</p> <p>3 is nice too, I don't really mind the gold hardware (but I hear you, especially with the yellow of the bag), and personally I would remove the tassels;-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mini-cross-body-bag-the-first-few-would-love-your-input#post-319477 Wed, 23 Mar 2011 19:12:02 +0000 dakota 319477@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My vote is for #1 because of the clean lines....just me though. Now I have to say that green bag would have me scarfing it up without a thought. I'm not very adventurous with my clothing but I do love me some funky accessories ;D </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mini-cross-body-bag-the-first-few-would-love-your-input#post-319453 Wed, 23 Mar 2011 18:35:37 +0000 rae 319453@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh I love #1, but then I'm crazy for citron. CITRON! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mini-cross-body-bag-the-first-few-would-love-your-input#post-319447 Wed, 23 Mar 2011 18:26:07 +0000 Heather 319447@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Antje, I think you should keep one and two and check out the Target crossbody that Bella posted. I have seen those in the store, but haven't examined closely for quality. But I vote another fun color in that style! </p> <p>A crossbody is the best for shopping, all-day excusions, vacations, concerts and everyday use! </p> <p>I own yellow, purple and sequin crossbody bags. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mini-cross-body-bag-the-first-few-would-love-your-input#post-319444 Wed, 23 Mar 2011 18:20:29 +0000 nancylee 319444@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Antje, number one gets my vote. It looks like the perfect size and hits at just the right spot on your body. Number two seems a tad small (almost like a wallet size) and perhaps hits a little too high on your body? Number three is nice; it just has more bells and whistles than the other two (zippers, etc.), which gives it a less streamlined look....but this is just a matter of preference. </p> <p>If the look you're going for is clean, subtle, and uncluttered, I'd go with #1. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mini-cross-body-bag-the-first-few-would-love-your-input#post-319437 Wed, 23 Mar 2011 18:05:14 +0000 bella 319437@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry Antje, I've seen it in stores but I haven't examined it up close so I don't know about the quality. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mini-cross-body-bag-the-first-few-would-love-your-input#post-319428 Wed, 23 Mar 2011 17:57:19 +0000 Antje 319428@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bella, I really like the look of the Target one (and the price!) But how does the material feel? Does it look cheap given it's not real leather? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mini-cross-body-bag-the-first-few-would-love-your-input#post-319412 Wed, 23 Mar 2011 17:34:13 +0000 bella 319412@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wanted to add that Target has a very similar bag to the third one:<br /> <a href="http://www.target.com/Merona-Crossbody-Black/dp/B004C0LTF4/ref=br_1_15?ie=UTF8&#038;node=2201804011&#038;searchSize=30&#038;searchView=grid3&#038;searchPage=1&#038;sr=1-15&#038;qid=1300901477&#038;rh=&#038;searchBinNameList=target_com_category-bin%2Ctarget_com_primary_color-bin%2Cprice%2Ctarget_com_brand-bin&#038;searchRank=salesrank&#038;frombrowse=1" rel="nofollow">http://www.target.com/Merona-C.....ombrowse=1</a><br /> They have more colors in stores.<br /> My bag, which also similar to that, is from Nine West.<br /> My point is if you are particular about having a one of a kind item, then this might not be the bag for you. You will probably see a lot of other women around carrying a similar bag. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mini-cross-body-bag-the-first-few-would-love-your-input#post-319408 Wed, 23 Mar 2011 17:30:17 +0000 bella 319408@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote #3 but I am biased. I have a very similar one in blue. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mini-cross-body-bag-the-first-few-would-love-your-input#post-319404 Wed, 23 Mar 2011 17:16:07 +0000 JuliaInGermany 319404@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very clever to order lots of bags and try them at home. I just ordered 17 bathing suits in different cup sizes. </p> <p>No 1: I love the colour, but the shape is just so-so, I think.<br /> No 2: Not fond of cream, but it's gorgeous in green or orange!<br /> No : Love! I'm currently considering a similar bag in red. </p> <p>I wouldn't know which one to pick, either no 2 in a different colour or no 3. Tough choice. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mini-cross-body-bag-the-first-few-would-love-your-input#post-319400 Wed, 23 Mar 2011 17:00:16 +0000 Antje 319400@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gotta love Zappos and Endless - both brought me a batch of mini cross-body bags the day after I ordered. Together with one that I picked up at Nordstrom Rack yesterday, I now have several at home and am starting the weeding out. (I always do this with shoes and bags - order many, and then agonize over the selection...) Here are pictures of the three I like best. Would love to get your feedback!<br /> (Note that I'm not even sure I'll pick amongst these three. E.g., while I really like the tiny Hobo International one, I'm wondering whether the green version wouldn't be even more fun. Don't have that at home, but you can see it here: <a href="http://www.amazon.com/HOBO-INTERNATIONAL-Aster-Small-Cross-Body/dp/B004IYJYEC/ref=sr_1_112?m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&#038;s=apparel&#038;qlEnable=1&#038;ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1300898563&#038;sr=1-112&#038;searchContext=B003WEAN2Q,B003WEAO02,B004IYJZL4,B004GNDN0Q,B003WEAOIO,B003WEAP7E,B004IYJZLO,B004IYJY7Y,B004JN0KB8,B003ELPP52,B003WEAPC4,B003WEALQO,B004IYJZSC,B004IYJZ8C,B003WEAPI8,B004IYJYEC,B003WEAPS8,B001V7RM48,B004IYK06S,B003WEAOPC,B004IYJZMS,B003WEALI2,B00315633O,B003WEALEQ" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/HOBO-INT.....B003WEALEQ</a>)</p> <p>As Angie always says, the devil really is in the details. For instance, I haven't figured out yet what the best length is for these bags. And some of them don't let you adjust the strap, which I think is dumb. </p> <p>1) Hobo International, not sure about the model name, this is the one from the Rack. Love the citrus color! The strap is adjustable. </p> <p>2) Hobo International, Aster. One can adjust the chain though it looks a litte funky when some chain links flop around (I guess I could get them taken out.) Love the shape, the little turn lock, the patent leather, and the chain. It's teeny tiny, though, which I think looks fun but might be impractical. Also, while I love the look and versatility of the cream, I wonder if I would enjoy the green one even more (see link above.) I'm quite enchanted with this tiny bag, but it's also twice as expensive as the one above.</p> <p>3) Pietro Alessandro. Love the buttery soft leather and the zippers. Strap is not adjustable. Feeling iffy about the gold hardware - I favor silver. </p> <p>What do you think?? </p>
