Review on πŸ‘œ Hobo Vintage Mara Crossbody Purse by Chantel Dickinson

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Lining is important and should match the photo.

I had this tramp Mara in red and I was thrilled! It's just the right size and will last forever. When I saw it in black with the silver hardware and had to have a new Mara. It was smooth and beautiful and pretty enough to eat when it arrived. I could see the choirs of angels as I turned it gently in my hands: and then I unzipped it. My heart just sank. The lining didn't have that pretty floral pattern as in the photo, but a pink zipper with geometric shapes, like something from a tween's bedspread. Fine, polished, delicious adult leather with that awful bubblegum lining. Who does that? It reminded me of the Seinfield episode where he got this nice suede jacket but the lining was pink so he ruined the suede instead of turning it inside out in an emergency rainstorm. Hobo Bags' point is their beautiful lining, and in this case, it was a deal breaker. I expected what is shown in this photo. It hurt my heart to return, but the lining design is important.

Pros
  • Brings joy
Cons
  • Big and bulky
