As I previously previewed in 2005, designers Hayden-Harnett is ran by Toni (long-time handbag designer), Ben (fashion company computer-guy) and Py (Siamese, special-agent purse-kitty). The company, whose brand has been featured in magazines across the country, has not only thrived on a hit canvas line, but a stylish leather collection as well. The New Thrape Hobo is just one of many new bags to hit for the spring-summer line, and it promises to be an exciting line at that! This gorgeous hobo features a large leather flap closure with a mini zipper pocket, and is just loaded with interior and exterior pockets to organize your day. Measuring 16 1/2×10x6, it’s available in oyster, yam, tango red, anthracite, black, and grey and sells for $548. It’s doesn’t get any better than this…
