The teddy bear matches the best but is not that spring like. I think some sort of tea rose charm would look great with this bag, like this one:

I'm not exactly sure if the pink of the flower and hardware will match your bag, but I think there were tearoses on the side of your bag right?

Yes! There are tearoses on the sides of the bag and I was also thinking of a tearose charm, but I don't think that most of them that I've found on coach.com or on ebay would look good with the colors of this bag and the applique and the hardware. I can't see the charm you mentioned in your link, could you tell me which one you were suggesting?

Below are pics of the tearose applique on my bag and also a photo of my Nomad with a matching tearose charm - and it looks great. I would love to find something that would look as good with this bag and I am open to suggestions. Thanks!

Yes! I must have been thinking of your nomad photo when I suggested tearose!

I had tried to send the link for the 5th charm you posted (#63783) as it seemed the general color scheme and hardware might match. I can't tell if your bag has the gunmetal or black copper (or something else) hardware.

For some reason your Coach links (and mine) aren't working for me either but I was able to look at the style numbers.

It seems like the all metal charms look good with this bag. I like the teddy and I like @SEWDimples steggy. I'm wondering if these metal tea rose charms might look good, but I'm not sure where to find them/if the hardware will match:

Lol sorry if I'm giving you too many options! Bag charms...gotta buy them all!

Interesting Idea! I have been looking at leather charms but I like the looks of some of these metal charms and they may go well with the bag, thanks!

Well shoot I like them all, but...
1. KH (sorta biased because it’s KH) 2. Bear 3. Heart

The bear gets my vote!

Hi @katev! I love all of them. The bear is so cute and the flower looks good for spring and summer.

I've tried Steggy with this bag. I'm adventurous with bag charms.

Good luck deciding.

I like them all! I use a different charm everyday so I would just switch them out to enjoy them all! [emoji1]

I like the heart charm most with this bag. :heart:

I think you need a tea rose charm! The bag is beautiful!

well so far I haven't found a tea rose charm (leather or tooled metal) that looks good with my Dusty Rose and Black Cooper appliqued Bandit. I have some hope for this "coming soon" Blossom 63783 charm but I haven't seen it IRL yet:

In the meantime I went back to my Charm supply and came up with 2 more options, what do you think?

Daffodil Charm:
