Here is my dilemma. I guess I have been carrying a bag (MK Jacquard sig tote curved top with 2 front pockets, magnet button closure - hard to find) too long that I adapted to the bag too well, maybe.
I love the look and variety of Coach so I have bought some pre-loved ones to try. I think I bought 5 totes so far and all of them are too short (except Poppy Glam tote but this flops too much). Also I'm not getting used to the zipper although I like the zipper better than magnet.

I'm looking for a bag that is light weight (leather or jacquard), has front or back pockets, somewhat can stand alone. I like the idea of leather but I'm afraid of its weight.
I fell for some Italian leather (patent) structrued bags before Coach but they hardly have front pockets and not many totes (more like satchel).
So is there a bag in Coach that will fulfill this needs? Please give me names or creed number so I can look them up. Thanks.
 
I tend to think the Coach totes are too short too. I wish the denim pw totes were 2-4 inches taller. The Gigi is a pretty tall tote but the weight of the pockets and turn locks makes it fall over.
 
Have you considered looking at shoulder bags rather than totes? There are so many bags from different eras that might meet your requirements. I suggest you browse through the reference library and the clubhouses, and the mod shot thread to get ideas.
