Yup, I feel the same way. I have this really nice buttery soft leather bag from Lucky Brand, but I won't wear it caz I feel bad I'm not wearing one of my coach bags...it's like I miss them or something...lol.
Totally agree with you, though right now I'm carrying a Banana Republic bag (bought at TJ Maxx) that I love (and kind of resembles the new bleeckers).
Sometimes I feel a bit strange not carrying Coach but other times I feel awkward if I DO carry Coach. I have pretty frugal family and inlaws (and we are too, for the most part) and so I often carry a Fossil bag or something else that I love that isn't a name brand.
I will say that I'm very happy that I love carrying well made but not designer handbags. It's good for my budget!
For example, here's a pic of one of my Fossil favorites! Of course, it still has the Coach charms...

Tejasmama, that's a very pretty bag!!! I know what you mean about your inlaws and family being frugal. Mine are too, and so are we. We don't spend that much money, but we both have our thinks--his electronics, my purses. Here's a pic of a Lucky Brand bag I just love, but for some reason can't bring myself to use caz I love my Coach bags....

i dont mind mixing my coach and lv or whatev. but a sort of normal brnad, like danier or roots or banana or whatever, just doesnt give me that special feeling i get carrying my designer bags. (even though some roots or banana bags can b the same cost as coach- wha tsi up w that?!)
I've become the opposite! I got my Tokidoki bag in January and I've been using it constantly since then, I've gone back to my Coach bags, but I feel weird not using my Toki! And the strange thing is that I've been into Coach for far longer than I've been into Tokidoki.
After my first coach I tried to use some of my old bags that are not name brand. I don't like them anymore and I feel bad because I loved them for so long too- I am giving almost all my old bags away to friends who admired them and now I only carry coach.....i thought this feeling would wear off but it hasn't yet.
