A friend from Australia called me Love in arguments all the time, maybe it was the accent but I did not mind haha. "Did you just hear yourself, Love? We don't put ice in tea, it's supposed to be a hot beverage. Yeah nah I reckon iced tea sounds bloody awful."

Hi,
Please authenticate. I'm wondering if this coach bag did have white stitching for that year it's made. Thanks.

That 9170 version for 1995 was probably an online only or limited store release item since it was a remake of the vintage Classic Shoulder Bag/Classic Pouch and might not even be in the catalogs for that year, but the bag is genuine so that's how it was made in 1995. Coach has used contrast stitching on rare occasions over the last 20 or 30 years but I don't remember seeing any of them in catalogs.

Hello Authenticators,
I got this cute little taco purse and would like your opinion on authenticity whenever time allows. If it is authentic, not sure if it is considered Saphire or Purple either.

Item: Kimball 9911
Measurements: 8.75" W X 6.25" H X 3" D; 21" strap drop

Thank you!

My guess would be Sapphire which would probably mean a 1993 date. We've had a few 1993 bags in Purple posted here and the purple color is pretty accurate and definitely has more red in it. This one is closer to blue, like a good Tanzanite. If anyone gave me a nice bit of bling with either a sapphire or especially a Tanzanite stone that color, I'd be a very happy lady. :biggrin:

I have no objection at all to being called "Luv" if it's said with a proper Brit, Aussie or Kiwi accent. Just imagine it's the 1960s and it's coming from the mouth of Paul McCartney or Michael Caine. :graucho:
