This bag was inspired by Monica Botkier’s friend, Joy Bryant whose style is “bohemian chic”. The bag comes with an elephant charm which has special meaning to Monica. In her own words, “This animal is a favorite: the community, intelligence, wisdom and memory that elephants possess mean a lot to me. They are ancient animals and definitely know something sacred about our planet and our world. When I think of elephants, I feel a sense of peace and tranquility. My daughter’s name is Sloane, which when phonetically sounded out in Russian and Polish (my parents native tongue) means elephant; taking it full circle.” Both Monica and Joy are avid travelers. Monica took a 6 month trip to South East Asia back in the mid 90’s, where she rode elephants on a trek in the far North, living among tribes for a week. Wow, what a total trooper!
The color grey is a favorite of mine,but not in this bag.Altogether it looks somewhat childish and is clearly meant for younger customers.So be it.
I rather like the large hobo bag and I’m 68. I guess I’m going through that second childhood everyone talks about.
Oh, I totally disagree! I absolutely love it and I’m older!
This is a great bag! Good luck to me!!!
My wife would die for this bag! She loves the color grey!
I think it’s very cute. Great bag!
This is a great bag, it matches my Natuzzi leather chair!!
I love it! Fingers crossed….
I wish I liked hobos but I find them so hard to get into and get anything. I find they look better over the shoulder than they function in real life. Kudos for the grey; as “in” as dark blue this season, according to Neiman Marcus.
cute and lovely
I’ve always wanted a hobo and this grey is great color for the remaining of the summer and this coming fall. Pick me!!!
Why is it that only US residents can apply for your contests? Did you ever think that perhaps you have some Canadian readers that are devoted to the blog and would enjoy the opportunity to participate? After all, we are not THAT far away and shipping is not THAT expensive to Canada. Perhaps reconsider and show some allegiance to your friends across the border that read your blog religiously every single day!
Way too cute. I love that it is so playful and practical at the same time. Just the right one for me.
I really want to win this bag! It’s perfect!
