Lockheart Zip It Alana Hobo, Handbag of the Day
The Lockheart Zip It Alana Hobo is secretly one of the trendiest bags we've seen this season, and yet it conveys effortless elegance. How did they manage this?This purse follows not only the boxy, sturdy shape trend, the metallic trend, and the gathered leather trend, but it even has a rosette that doesn't appear too overly "springy." The secret to this mastery of style is balance -- the metallic hue and zipper trim keep the rosette looking utilitarian, and the sturdiness of the shape make the gathered leather appear natural and even graceful.
This modest,13½"W X 7"H X 5½"D hobo is adorned with a "twisted and knotted" shoulder strap, making it an easy purse to carry on a busy day -- but clearly this is a purse worthy of an cocktail dress or even a dance floor.
The Lockheart Zip It Alana Hobo is available from Saks Fifth Avenue for $540.

I LOVE IT!!!! When I saw this post I checked their website (lockheart.com) and I just saw all the things in their spring collection and they have a lot of bags that are effortlessly chic. I love LOCKHEART because they have tons of pockets and make organizing inside a breeze but they are also bags that match my lifestyle ie: can go from work to play with no problem.

So cute! Zippers are totally in this season so I love that the rose is made out of it!

This bag is so trendy! The rose made of zippers is so different than everything that's out there right now which is what I love about the brand.
Does anyone know anything about the brand? Ive never really heard of Lockheart?

Lockheart has the cutest stuff. Just checked out their website and they seem to have a lot of purses with roses on them. I like this one though because its made of zippers.

I love the zipper detail on the rose! I checked out the other colors of the bag and i really liked the green one, it could really dress up casual day outfits, but it is chic enough for a night out too. LOVE THIS BAG!
