What age are people talking about when they say millennials? I'm 34 & would be considered a millennial, but I'm also a much different person than say, a 22-year-old recent college graduate.

Same here. I'm 33, right in Millenial range, and I love Coach. Honestly, I don't see a lot of 20 somethings with purse and if they do have a purse, it's often MK (so many MKs in NW Ohio right now).

I think they need each other to survive? Hope it works for them.
Coach is on the decline. Has been for years now. M Kors is the new Coach. Everyone carries them around my way.

Not true, actually. A few years ago, yes. Coach was struggling for awhile. That is changing the past couple years now with Stuart Verviers...

Perhaps you are seeing a decline that is unique to where you live, but across the board, it seems that Coach is on an upswing, especially now with the KS purchase.

Kors, well...see below. Not doing so great.

Coach soars after profit news

Hang in there in the ad when you click on the video link. The video comes up after about twenty seconds.

The ranges are pretty broad for every group I think. I'm a baby boomer at the late end and I know I probably don't have a ton in common from the earlier years of baby boomers, music for example. I think in your group though, the differences are more apparent because when people at the top age of that bracket are being compared to college kids, they probably don't have much of anything in common. I think college age kids would be a hard group compared to about any age. Just my .02

Plus college kids are almost universally broke.

That's true. It's just that a few people were saying that millennials aren't into bags and I think they were referring to mostly early 20s kids.

The early 20 year olds I know aren't into bags. Mine like to find some old boho looking bag and wear it with everything. Lol.....if only I had saved my stuff from then, the fringed bags and leather jackets, the shoes, the tie dye, the peace signs, bell bottoms....it was a great time for fashion, in my eyes.
