Hi! I've always been a fan of Coach items. I have had a station bag for about fifteen years and it still looks gorgeous!

Anyway, lately I've been wanting the legacy bags, so today I bought the Ali in whiskey. It is beautiful but I kept on eyeing the Hippie at the store. Now I want both! I think the Hippie color they had in the store was also whiskey because it looked just like the Ali, but a different shape. Should I own both the Ali and Hippie in Whiskey? Is that too much? Should I exchange the whiskey Ali for black instead? OH what to do???!!! I wish this were my only dilemma in life but I won't bore you with my other problems. Let me know what you think! Thanks.

Thanks, Ranskimmie! The reason why I bought it in the Coach boutique instead of Macy's (I heard they will have the Friends and Family discount in two weeks so I can get 20% off) is because Macy's does not carry the Ali in whiskey. Someone tell me I'm wrong. If I get Ali in black I will get it at Macy's so I can get the discount. Is the Ali best in whiskey? I have not seen the hippie in black.

In my opinion, you can't possibly overdo the legacy items. However, I'm completely biased since I adore the Legacy line. :yes: If you love both bags in whiskey, then get both! ;)

Ok, I took a beauty nap and now have a clear head. I am going to get the Ali in black because I just attached my station bag straps with the brass clips to the Ali and it does not look half bad and leaves your hands free. But since I have black straps I need a black bag. Since the hardware is the same, it looks like it goes with the bag. I think I am more a "black" kind of girl because the whiskey looks more casual and I like dressier bags. I am going to exchange the whiskey ali for a whiskey Hippie. Is this a good decision?

The legacy black is gorgeous and it doesn't scratch like the whiskey or the natural. I have the shoulder bag and the french purse in the black - although I adore the whiskey ADORE IT - I would be rubbing out the scratches all day long.

Thanks, Shoulderbabies! That makes me feel a lot better! I am so happy I made my own hands free Ali with the station bag strap. It's amazing how after 15 years, the brass and leather are still in great condition.
