cz22's Quickly-Growing Coach Collection - lots of purple!

[cz22]

I just got into purses, specifically Coach, in December 2008. My mom gave me a beautiful soft leather wristlet but I didn't care for the color. I exchanged it, and then my collection grew from there (including getting the same wristlet in a different color). I will try to post these in order.

Starting with the Madison leather berry wristlet and plum optic lurex mini skinny that I got when I exchanged the gifted wristlet:


Also shown is the plum optic lurex capacity wristlet that I bought shortly after.

I got a few items that I have since given away before finding tPF and its useful reference of other purses that I Had to Have. Here are the items I got then but no longer have:

Then I found tPF and saw pictures of the Amethyst Garcia 2008 Legacy Leather purses. I had to get one for myself - my first leather Coach purse:

And then my collection grew from there.

I liked the feel of the nubuc so much, I also got the teal in a slightly larger size. So I guess this is the shoulder bag or a large top handle pouch:

A few more scarves


Limited edition black optic lurex signature purse. I prefer the leather purses, so I may not keep this...

Back to Purple.

I got a great Craigslist deal on this plum belted ergo (small size)

pink exotic signature print scarf


(and finally picked up some leather care for my collection)

Then, I confessed to my mom that she had finally gotten me into Coach. She added to my collection with my early birthday gift:

Magenta Ergo Pleated Satchel




and purple Amanda Satin Capacity wristlet

Then I was back to building my collection myself.

Got a good deal on a top handle pouch that is the same size as my purple nubuc. Not nubuc, but Black Pebbled leather

I felt I needed something pink. I don't plan on keeping this one because I found a different pink purse I like better. But here is the pink leather hobo:
