Once again, leave it to Forever 21 to make designer style accessible to the masses! It was love at first site with this vibrant red/magenta Chroma Hobo Handbag for $19.80. It’s a pretty good “interpretation” of the Prada version, which naturally contains a tiny triangular logo and costs a lot more. The leather strips and colors definitely evoke memories of handbags in the late eighties, but done in a fresh, new silhouette. If you’re not sure if your wardrobe’s color palette works with this one, there’s always the black and cream version to tone things down a bit.
