I was out attempting to shop for my RAOK buddy last night when I remembered Dillard's had some stuff marked down. They didn't have much left (a black Bleecker Duffle, some Holiday and Fall Patchwork pouches and a black Sig pouch) but I did manage to find SOMETHING.

(sorry the pictures aren't the best, I can't manage a camera this early haha)

Chelsea Signature Braided Flap!

My boyfriend actually talked me into this...it's my first black Coach bag and i've been wanting a flap for a few months now. I couldn't justify paying full price for a black bag since I wear more brown, but I couldn't pass this up! It retails for $298 and I got it for under $160! :tup: The best part? My boyfriend said he would pay me back IN FULL for it since he talked me into it :yahoo::love: Now I just need something colorful to decorate her with!

I also picked up something for my RAOK buddy, but I can't tell.:sweatdrop:



Now...I was looking at my collection yesterday and realized I have way too much khaki signature. Does anyone else feel this way? I have a pretty diverse collection as far as styles go, but 3 of my 5 bags are khaki sig. I even considered the thought of selling my Carly, as I sometimes find her way too heavy for my liking.:sad: I know for certain that i'm going to part with a wallet that I never use, but I don't know if I can sell off any of my bags.:crybaby:
 
I am the opposite, I really want to add some signature to my collection. The only signature I own at the moment is a couple pair of sneakers and a pink agenda, no actual bags.

That new black bag is very cute!
 
congrats, cute! :tup: I only have 4 bags right now (2 aren't even here yet) and 3 of the 4 are khaki sig! I just love the looks of it.. granted 1 of those will be my swingpack, but still. :s
 
this is cute!
and the fact that you bf is paying for it makes it better. :P

we don't have a dillard's here.
in fact, on this forum is the first time i'd even heard of one!
but maybe i'm just sheltered. :shame:
 
UPDATE!

I used this bag today when I was grocery shopping with my mom and it was SO comfortable to carry! I almost forgot how cozy a bag could be (with my Carly that likes to slide off of my shoulder and such). I was skeptical about this bag at first last night, but now i'm in love! I see another flap in my future. :love:
