I think I'm kinda falling out of love with Coach. I mean, I still like the the styles & durability & really nothing against Coach but, I'm finding that I'd rather just save a lil' bit more & buy something else instead like Gucci or LV. I will probably would still buy Coach in the future but, they are falling by the wayside for me right now. Can't really explain why.

Maybe this is just a phase.

I still love my classic LAMB bags and carry them a lot but so far, I've been falling out of love with all the collections since January 2009. There is nothing new that is LAMB that I need to purchase. A couple of the bags from prior collections I still would love to get my hands on like a Rasta mandeville or the checkerboard Hopewell.

Coach too. I'm really getting disappointed with the quality and the new bags now. I still love their SLG's and small accessories though, but I can't see myself buying anymore of their bags in the future. I rather save up for Rebecca Minkoff, Michael Kors and maybe a Balenciaga in the future.

I like MK bags now. I really didn't pay much attention to them in the past. For long as I can remember, I always carried Dooney and Bourke.

crazyboutcoach · Oct 18th, 2009, 02:53 PM

I so thought I was going to try the poppy line because of all the hype that was generated about it before it came out, but I heard that many ppl are dissapointed with the quality of the leather & feel the bags should either be made better or priced lower.

It's Tokidoki for me. I liked them better when LeSportSac was involved. The prints, zippers, and trims are not doing it for me. I'm going back to Coach. I was really drooling for Marc Jacobs, but I can't justify spending the money. I'm more comfortable with the price point of Coach and they have some really nice styles and beautiful colors.

Designer_Love · Oct 18th, 2009, 03:08 PM

Coach and Dooney & Bourke, I just find I want to branch out to different designers and try different bags. I'm tired of carrying the same bags everyone else has. I'm wanting to buy something I don't see often around here like LV or Gucci or really just something different in general. EVERYONE around here has either Coach or D&B and it makes it boring, seems like there is nothing special about owning a Coach or D&B bag anymore.

MrsMammaGoose · Oct 18th, 2009, 03:19 PM

Kate Spade. I still love the ones I have and will continue to carry them, but for some reason I'm just really not interested in getting any more, and haven't looked for/at them online in a while. I have no idea why; it just happened, and might change again. Right now I'm all about Furla!

crazyboutcoach · Oct 18th, 2009, 03:31 PM

^Yeah, that's like me, I love the Coach bag I have & am carrying it now, but I just don't have the urge to buy any new bags from them even though I like some of the styles.

sadly but true...balenciaga...i haven't been in the mood for bbags lately...i use to be in the bbag forum all the time. not it's just once in awhile

alouette · Oct 18th, 2009, 04:03 PM

It's been LV for awhile now. Can't get into them for some reason. The smaller cosmetic pouches I really like though.

Same here. For me, it's because I always see his bags in stores like TJ Maxx, Marshalls and Ross. But I love him now. Everything. His bags, clothes, sunnies and even the perfume. XD I'm MK obsessed!

I'm feeling the same as you in regards to Coach. The quality just hasn't been as good for a while now. I took a "break" from them for a couple of years while I was using my Kooba's and Botkier's. And it looks like I am on break again. The poppy items are such a horrible quality when compared to typical Coach of a few years ago. I purchased the Tartan large zip-around wallet for $158. I caught myself justifying it by thinking "this is a good price point for them". What was I thinking???!!??? I could get a high-quality leather wallet from Rebecca Minkoff for $150! So I brought it back and decided it was time to spend my good, hard-earned money on better quality products. It's like Coach as skewed us into thinking that we are getting great price-point items from them and are getting a great deal when in reality we are over-paying for mediocre quality!
