So, my goodies from fos came in and they are both keepers. [emoji7] I did debate keeping the tote - because, you know, I'm not a tote person. [emoji1] You would have laughed at my little mental list of pros and cons. In the end, my love for the color won. Also, the fact that such a large bag doesn't overwhelm me helped a lot. I was annoyed that it came WITHOUT a dust bag. (Why, fos, why???) But, even with just minimal wrapping, the bag looks and smells brand new. [emoji28]

I'm a tote person after all. I didn't mind the open bag as much as I thought I would. It also stayed just fine on my shoulders even with a slippery coat. [emoji106]
Beautiful green! I'm glad to hear you don't mind the open tote much. I'm beginning to realize I'm a tote person! :heart: I prefer the look of structured girlie bags x100, but love the ease of a tote, and they're what I reach for most these days. So far I use zip totes, but will try out my open tote soon!

Thanks! I prefer structured bags too, but gravitate towards my hobos often. There was one outlet zippered hobo that really tempted me, but I never got it. It is made with really nice pebbled leather.

I like the navy but as always, I have to see it and touch it. I’m not a very successful online shopper unless I’ve already seen the item.
I'm using the royal today so took a couple shots of it next to purple and blue. For some reason I feel it's more purple than blue in person, but then when I put it next to purple I'm not so sure. I do love the color and hope they come out with more colors! thanks

Thank you so much for posting these photos! I love the camera bag! What a cute silhouette. I see what you mean about the colour though. It’s not quite as navy as I thought. It really picks up the purple tones from your other bags (you have a beautiful collection) and looks almost aubergine. The clasp is beautiful. I’m going to definitely have to try it on. Thank you again for taking the time to gather your bags for the photo shoot!

I'm stocking the beaches again to keep us on the island because we all got way too happy during the last FOS Sale. No swimming without freebies!

Don't worry about me lol. The last time I purchased a bag directly from Coach was 10 years ago. My last second hand purchase for vintage was in December. I am shopping my closet until something amazing comes along. My freebie can continue to gather dust! But I'll take thd pics of Frank!! Thanks.

Oh wow I just LOVE the camera bag!! [emoji173]️[emoji173]️. Are you loving it? The comparison pix are great. Is this bag a keeper?

Yes, it's a keeper! Used it today :)

I can fit my sunglass case, soft wallet, card case, phone, keys, gum and lipstick in there and still have room. It unzips almost all the way (as opposed to the turnlock dylan whose opening is kind of tight) so getting in and out is easy. My phone fits in the front turnlock pocket, but have to sort of push in to get around the turnlock part, which puts a temporary dent in the top. Yeah, my description doesn't make sense, but I found myself putting the phone in the main part and leaving the bag unzipped most of the time so I wouldn't dent the new bag so soon :/

So now there's 2 things I'd change: make the strap detachable so I could swap out with novelty straps if desired and add a back outer slip pocket for easier phone access.

I have my eye on the camera bags with the kisslock as that would be easier to get the phone out of (I assume), but just couldn't pull the trigger on pink. Hoping more colors come out in the less embellished version.
