There are a handful of things I love about the Ryland Downtown Hobo. One of which may or may not be the way it reminds me of the bag Andy Sachs (Anne Hathaway) carries when she runs into its designer (James Holt, played by Daniel Sunjata *hyperventilate*) at a party in Devil Wears Prada.
Or, you know, something…like…that.
So this bag is great. It’s a little different than my normal bag shape, but it definitely works. I could see many a nicknack completely necessary object fitting in this guy and being schlepped all around town. Easily.
The hardware on it is thick. It just looks sturdy, you know? From the rouching at the bottom, all the way up the studded side, to the double O-ring strap. All good.
And those studs? Fuhgeddaboudit. I’m in love. It combines rocker, country, and wild all in one, without that Bret Michaels subtext.
Noooobody wants that. Really. Put the eyeliner away.
For an everyday bag, the Ryland Downtown works well, due to its size and comfort over the shoulder, yet it still has a special quality to it. It’s got a unique shape up top, and the shiny pattern will cause a double-take or two.
I mean, who doesn’t like shiny stuff? Right?
omggg im so glad you love daniel sunjata as much as i do!! he’s like the EVEN CUTER version of cuba gooding jr. (which i didn’t even think was possible lol)
lol im not alone after all!
but yes. totes reminds me of that bag, but i wouldnt have noticed it if you didnt point it out!!
