My regret is purchasing a Juliette. I wanted to give the bag a try and branch out from my Sophias. It is a very nice leather design but it is not working for me. The strap is too long but when I double it I hate how it looks at rest.
Like a dog with his head cocked to the side with one ear up when he hears something!!:roflmfao: The top edges of the bag also look a bit sloppy and unfinished to me.
I was conflicted so I left the tags on but she is going back.

LOL! It does look like a dog. You crack me up! I don't like the new Coach bags with horns like that. It looks like a bat.
 
Got a secondhand, but like new, Soho North South in Black when I first got into Coach earlier this year. It is just weird size to me. Either too big to use for when I need a small bag, and too small for what I need most days. Probably will resell it or gift it.
 
I guess it would be my small purple patent Sabrina. I love how she looks, but something is holding me back from using her...just can't figure out what. I've had her for quite awhile, and have never carried her lol. So now I kinda wish I hasn't bought her. Maybe I'll change my mind one day and use her.

I have been using my Coach Isabelle for the past week and I am starting to not like it. I don't like the folded opening. It looks like it was rushed in the making. And when the bag slouches, this folded opening does not look attractive at all. It's weird looking. It's so plain. The opening is narrow and I hate digging in for my stuff.
Anyway, I am still keeping it because the color Magenta is gorgeous and a unique Coach color.

DO YOU GUYS HAVE ANY COACH REGRET BUYS?

Pics of what you're talking abt?
 
I can't think of them offhand---because I sold them or gave them away!

Anything in signature never stayed in my collection. There was once a very cute flap bag in orignial C signature. (Ok so I was trying). It had vachetta and I was so worried about it.
Then there was the Hamptons? Soho? Hobo that reminded me of 1950s saddle shoes. I vague remember a satchel with Cs. Sold off very quickly. Almost any shoulder bag.
My "white" Legacy shoulder bag. First of all, it's not "white." It's winter white, but closer to cream. Hated the contrast stitching on the bag.
Then there was the Legacy duffles that had contemporary hardware and constrast stitching. Bye Bye.
There was a gorgeous suede fringe duffle with brass hardware. That winter was probably the wettest sloppiest one we had had.
I used to sell my Coach follies to a co-worker--if they didn't end up on the Bay.

Through this experience, I learned that I really like plain leather bags and some way of wearing crossbody. The bags I ended up keeping were either classic or fit well with my lifestyle. And now that is what I get, with an occasional cute key fob thrown in.
 
I've bought and returned lots of bags, mostly ones I bought sight unseen and didn't like IRL. But one I kept and kind of regret is the Antique Rose Embroidered Maggie -- Maggie is totally not my style, not functional at all for me, but she's so beautiful I can't quite bring myself to part with her.
 
I loved the look of the new Legacy Mini Mini Crossbody bag when they came out, perfect for going to a concert or a sporting event, but I don't like the way they attached the straps to the backside of the purse rather than on the sides, so it kind of flops forward when you're wearing it....I haven't returned any of the three I bought (two of the colorblock colors and the haircalf one) but I'm still on the fence about them.....

Brooke.
I had the large black Brooke with that gorgeous burgundy lining and thick, amazing pebbled leather....loved how she looked when stuffed with paper, but as soon as I put my stuff in her she turned into this long, narrow, vertical purse and I couldn't stand it. Hated to part with her because she was gorgeous, but found her a new home on Craigslist.
 
Mine was a Hamptons Carryall, it was gorgeous but I never could get comfortable with it, the leather was this sand pebbled and it had a braided belt with a gold clip. Later, the same style came out in MFF. The handles weren't right, it was too shallow, and finally I gave it to my Mom. She loves it, and it looks great on her, but it was just too structured for me. Sad, but happy in the end!
