I have been going through the way-back listing and have saved some photos of some of the items I have liked or might have to my own image gallery for later reference of the item and it's product number. Click here!
^yes, burb3rrylov3r, I loved all of those bags you just mentioned. I just spent a ton of time on wayback machine and saw all those poppy bags! I also saw a white demi with the mulitcolored polka dots in real life this past weekend!
And the multicolored wave totes and hobos were great. I even liked the chevron bags. And what about the bubble tote:
Sorry, I like wacky bags
Yeah I have a thing for those bubble items. I have never been able to find this bag... yet....
Here are my bubble babies
I'm not sure what line the bag was from, but the leather and size of the bag looked similar to this white legacy that Coach Addict shared. It came in black (sorry thats all I remember cuz I was in love with it!) and the long crossbody strap could be double-folded (does that make sense?) to make it a shoulder length strap. I beleive it was a zip-top. If anyone remembers this bag, this was the one that I think I've loved the most and was "the one that got away".
Bunny, thanks for doing that! that is very sweet of you.. I get irritated by the wayback machine.. it's hard to know which links work and which dont.
T-Girl, I agree about the batignolles. I love the shape and that is light weight, but the straps and the trim get wrinkled easily and doesn't look as pretty, plus the vachetta gets so dirty. I am super careful with my bags and the leather of the batignolles is driving me crazy!! The same with my mono speedy.. the handles get dirty easily. My latest one is a Damier Ebene sarria .. I hope this one is better.. I never had this problem with any of my Coach bags.. I feel like I need gloves to handle my LVs
Coach Addict, all I have to say is that you have awesome taste
I hunted down some of those bags for a while but it was worth it!!
This thread is reminding me why I love Coach, I can get a great bag at the outlet and not be afraid to use it.
If anyone is looking to see older Coach styles from like 2005-2008, here is a link to a Japanese website that shows some of the older Coach styles:

I know! It is so frustrating and I am hoping the vachetta darkens soon so I don't have to keep cleaning it. I try my best to keep the bag clean and it deson't prevent the wearing out. I am glad you mentioned the Mono Speedy vachetta handles. I have the Damier Speedy and the glazing came off the handles in the 12 days after I bought it brand new. I feel more confident carrying my Coach knowing the warranty will be there if stuff happens to it.
Many thanks to arsweb for posting about a Legacy Ali Hippie in Whiskey in the eBay thread! I jumped on it immediately, even though I thought I wanted this bag in white. The price was a little high for me (I'm kind of a cheapie), but I've been stalking eBay everyday for a month and there have been NO Legacy hippies at all! I figured since I have gone to the boutique twice in 2 days with a PCE card and came out empty handed, it was meant to be! And it comes with a legacy stripe wristlet that I didn't even realize until after I purchased!
I can't post the pictures from the auction, but would anyone be willing to weigh in and re-assure me this is really the whiskey color? I've been trying to figure it out by reading old threads, but haven't been able to decide definitively with all the natural, walnut, and brown legacy leather variations!

Bunny, thanks SO MUCH for all those references to the older pieces. I've gotta go back thru them when I have the time to really browse!!!
I own one of the bracelets you posted, just in a different color combo. I was lucky enough to score it off the bay years ago for $20 bucks shipped!!!
Mine is the black signature, you had a pic of the gold? <---I believe it's gold!

Congratulations!! Nice bag, I love the wristlet!! I was never lucky enough to score any legacy stripe accessories.
I do believe your bag is Whiskey. I am attaching a picture of my walnut Gigi so you can see the color.. whiskey is more reddish.. I also posted a picture of my whiskey Mandy before.. I think that is the same color as the hippie you bought.
