Ok, so I have a Rambler in black and I love it. I got it as a Christmas gift. I was thinking I wanted an LV for my birthday coming up in May, but have lately been kinda turned off by the brand and have fallen in love again with the Coach Classics. I have always loved them, but they seem to be doing so amazing and the gorgeous leather makes my heart just sing. My SA sent me 2 pics. She was so cute and wrapped one with a scarf to show it off. I am thinking the Cassie in the chalk... or the turnlock in the chalk, or the azur? I have a lot of pink bags, so not really thinking about the taffy. Which one should I choose and what color? Anyone who has these want to weigh in? I don't carry a lot. I am not a zipper fan, so the Pillow bag is not one I desire. :smile:

Which one? Cassie or Turnlock Clutch? Or Do you guys really think the Tabby Pillow 26 is worth it and holds up well?

I love these posts! I’m voting Cassie but I’m biased... it’s more my style... I own a chalk Cassie 19. I also LOVE Coach’s color chalk with that gorgeous brass hardware :love: With that said, it’s a classic and versatile bag that you can’t go wrong with. It also packs a punch by holding a lot. You still have the turn lock closure but I love the”c” style turn lock. The pillow tabby is definitely on trend and very hot right now but I just can’t get into the style for some reason. That’s not to say, that you will not fall in love though.

Lol!!! That’s awesome! Glad I could make you smile. I was watching videos and just realized the pillow came out only 2 months ago. I love the look of it. I badly want to pet it. Wait that sounds kinda dirty. Oh well. I do. Lol.
Usually I am a classic kinda girl. I think the Cassie in chalk is gorgeous for that clean light color. Will go very nicely with any spring / summer colors I throw on. I believe you are right about the Cassie being more versatile where as the Turnlock Clutch and Pillow are more “fun if I have extra cash to spend”
Another weird thing I do, if I wear bags according to my body shape which will complement my style. I am in inverted triangle and fit athletic shape. So I don’t wear bags that sit up close under my arm but wear them down by my hips to draw the eye down. The pillow bag is too puffy to wear under the arm for me. I worry the size would be awkward on a longer strap by the hip....

Does the Cassie ever go on sale?

Ok and also to point out the chalk is really like the color of white chalk. It was more white than I thought and I was able to see oil spots here and there. No big deal - but if you’re nutty about it it must drive you crazy. Soooo in that sense, I preferred the colors. I was shocked to get the green. Lol. The azur color is like a blue with “burnt” corners. Think of burnt orange but in blue. Seeing the Cassie in person next to my rambler, the rambler was more my style and relaxed while the Cassie was almost a little too stuffy for me. I could see getting it in a fun color. As for black, I am beyond thrilled with my Rambler in black. Does that make sense? The ivory for the pillow bag was a really lovely cream beige color. Very nice. Looks amazing with the colors I had on today. (Pink , peachy corals...) hope this helps.

I have the Cassie and the turn lock clutch both in black. I have yet to carry the Cassie as it is very similar to one of my favorite vintage Vuitton bags. I reach for the turn lock clutch at least once or twice a month. Which do you feel would better fit your lifestyle? which one makes your heart sing or at least makes you smile? Or me being the enabler which I am get them both. Good luck with your decision.
BTW...I love how your SA dressed up the Cassie.

Did you decide? Yes the Cassie regular size can feel a little more business like for my style. It’s still a gorgeous classic bag and I know it’s versatile though. I felt the same about the Tabby 26. I want to like it bc it’s so on trend but even the SA told me that the Tabby 20 top handle and Madison 18 bag were more style...which they totally are. At least they are all gorgeous bags and you can’t make a bad decision.

Oh yeah. I posted above. I ended up falling for a green tabby pillow 26. Lol. My kids who have sensory experiences both love to squeeze my bag and the tag. I can totally justify more. Lol
