When I prayed to God to create an affordable bag for school that is spacious enough to hold all of my necessities– especially my incredibly heavy makeup purse– he showed me a sponsored post from GVN about their large hobo bag. 

The material of the bag is a pebbled vegan leather with a thick canvas lining on the inside along with a small zip compartment. Even though the bag does not hold shape due to its material, I find that the “slouchiness” of it makes it more “chic.” Despite of my height (152cm) comapared to the bag’s size and capacity, it does not “wear me” or “swallow me,” it does not look awkward when worn, which gives a similar vibe as the Bottega Venetta Hop Large tote bag, Ralph Lauren Polo ID in large, The Row Allie leather hobo bag, and the Celine Romy bag.

Aside from the fact that this bag has a zip closure (a commuter friendly design), this feels extremely lightweight yet durable which makes it a great option for people who carry their laptop and other gadgets all at once. From experience, it can fit my 14-inch laptop, my 11-inch ipad, a make-up purse, an umbrella, my 128 pages thesis manuscript and other small items like my keys and wallet.
