J.Crew Brompton Hobo

Brompton Hobo $298.00

UPS just delivered this handbag today.  I have been looking for a new bag and I spotted this one at J.Crew last week.  I didn't purchase on the spot but decided to keep looking and think about it.  I received a J.Crew catalog over the weekend with a coupon code for 20% off if you order online and use an American Express card for payment.  Decision made...I ordered it immediately.  
I do love the shape, color, leather and size of this bag but it is the pockets and zipper pockets that sold me.  Note the zipper on the top/back of the bag...that pocket is the depth of the bag!!  Very roomy and a great place to keep things safe.  Snaps on the side help shape the bag and make it "smaller".  The shoulder strap detaches.  Wouldn't this make a great carry-on too?

    What color did you purchase? I've only seen online and not sure what color is best? They all look good!

    Hi Kristen, I got the henna. That's the only color I've seen in the stores too. I really like the color, sort of a saddle leather color. Thanks for your comment and for reading Spiral Style. Have a great weekend.

    Mine just arrived yesterday in espresso. I also had a 20% off coupon code. LOVE! I didn't even know about the top/back zip pocket, how awesome is that?
