Tory Burch “Edye” Wool and Leather Hobo Bag: A Heartfelt Approach


icon

What’s not to love about the combination of snug wool felt and sleek brown leather? Satisfying what the other material lacks (soft versus hard, smooth versus soft), Tory Burch’s big, roomy, comfortable hobo is great for work, without being stiff or stern.

The optional shoulder strap doesn’t work for me – it’s all about the angular top handle that follows the shape of the bag – but it’s nice to know it’s there if you need it. A curvaceous trim gives this hobo the formality it needs to make it into the office, not to mention some always-welcome va-va-voom. Anytime the mood – and weather – strikes to bring out your tartans, tweeds, wools, and fur, you’ll easily fall back on this fall bag, one set to make a yearly comeback. At Saks Fifth Avenueicon for $525.

Pair with: Streamline a large hobo with slinky cashmere. This camel wool-cashmere blend by Joseph, with extra-wide lapels, is a timeless coat that will never diminish in style. On Net-a-Porter for $1,095.
