Yes I saw the Riley's and the Preston's in person. They look more rubbery than plasticky to me because the paint makes it look matte. It's cheap looking though, and I have a feeling color loss is going to be a major issue because it's just paint. The leather itself is woven but the color/striping is just painted on. I hope that makes sense.
I agree....I used the wrong word, rubbery is a much better adjective than plasticky
 
Just left Coach store. The manager had the daily bag in seamist which I hadn't seen before. So much prettier IRL. None in the store for sell so she ordered it. Only 50 left in case anyone is considering getting. Also got the matching zippy and the gold/crystal flower and gold sea fobs. Done for this PCE!

Are you sure the leather is actually woven? I had a quick look at a Riley yesterday and I'm pretty sure it's a stamped or embossed woven pattern, not actually woven leather.
 
I came home with the Sullivan hobo in camel/pink ruby. I love everything about this hobo. The leather is soft like the drawstring. Great size for a petite person like myself. I have no issues with the shoulder strap. I love the camel color with the "edge of pink"!!
 
I might get a ring. I have great success with Coach rings. I have four Coach rings and every time I wear any of them i get a compliment. I wear rings every day and never no one says a thing until I wear my Coach ones, then somebody always comments on it.
 
I got mine today in the mail. I also got a phone call from my local boutique which was nice.

I'm getting a couple of wallets:
The cornflower blue saffiano double zip accordion.

I love this wallet. I bought one from FOS in BV and it's become my favorite wallet. My phone and keys fit in it which = LOVE!

And, the Madison double zip phone wallet in either burnt camel or sea mist:

I played with this in the store and I really liked it. I love the wristlet strap. My phone fit perfectly. A great smaller wallet that you could use as a mini clutch. .
yes my SA also called me and I don't even shop that much in FP store. that was nice of her! i love that phone wallet. I have IPhone 5 and use protective clear case on it, i doubt it would fit...would it?
 
I actually received my first PCE card and I'm thinking about getting the Bleecker Small Cooper Satchel in Peach Rose. Does anyone have this color/bag? Just wondering if this is a color that you found goes well with a lot of different outfits.

Here is the mini woven Riley and wristlet taken in store. It does feel like rubbery
I think I just figured out what I didn't like about these the first time I saw them pictured. It doesn't look woven in the same way as my woven Romy. There are no spaces between the strips. But what bothers me most is the painted lines that seem to be fighting against the woven pattern.
 
Vacation!! Where? The entire trip to Coach was ridiculous! Hubs wanted to get me an anniversary gift - 17 years today - yet the bags I wanted were excluded or they only had the floor model to sell me - ewww. Lol


Thank you and have a grand day!! :)
We're going to New York!

Congratulations on your anniversary! I'm lucky if DH even remembers ours, but sometimes I'll forget it too! I'm sorry the trip to Coach was a bust.

I'm glad my SA didn't call me so I wouldn't have to tell her, but you've got to wonder about their sales tactics. I doubt the things I was considering were excluded.

If the medium size is not too big for you it's deleted. Macy's had them on sale for $208 + an additional 25% off with their Friends and Family sale. I was looking at them on-line this afternoon.

I have the small embossed Cooper in grey birch, but my hobo is Peach Rose and it's an amazing color. I think it's definitely neutral and soft enough to go with anything.
