Involuntary Coach ban support group

[whateve]

This year I've been recording how many times I carry each bag. So far this year, except for the bags I've already decided to sell or given to my daughter, I've carried every one of them at least once except for one that I normally carry around Christmas.

Thank you

Oh the tan is delicious! Looks great with the LV! The Borough style was just released back during my last Coach phase but then I took a step back for a few years so I missed them all. I’ve always admired them, particularly the soft style ones. I love it’s layout. I have mine for her first day out at work today and it’s so easy to carry! Very happy!

Glad you’re enjoying your beautiful Borough! I also find the style quite functional. Reminds me a little bit of our Rogues with three sections. My tan Borough has developed a nice patina and it’s quite cuddly, I must say.

Love this, I have its' sister The borough is a great bag. At one point I had about 11...down to 1 now.

Oh, I love this one, too! I would definitely consider adding a third Borough to my other two. This is another beauty.

 

[musiclover]

Thank you. I was torn between the two and had 0 brown in my collection so it made the decision easier. I'm actually using a similar wallet today

Oh, this very nice, too! Love the colour and slim style.

That’s great WE. So you are dating your bags too? Not sure if speed dating or regular dating, lol.

It’s hard when one get used to having multiples but I am trying

I totally feel this. I love multiples but am trying to cut back to two or three. I’m down to three each of my Rogues and Dinkies, two each of my Madison Sophia’s and Charlie’s.

But I could see myself adding a fourth Speedy...not yet but in a couple of years.

Ok for those who are still trying to exercise — I just did my 1 mile walking exercise after skipping “a few”, lol, days. And I am a bit tired and wiped now. It’s hard to fit that measly 20 minutes in but it is on my mind most days — I hope to be better about this so I can work my way up to the 2 mile 30 minutes walk soon.

Oh how exciting about a 4th Speedy — can’t wait to see what size and material/print

Hey I think you all can understand this. I said I can’t buy any more bags this year (or maybe even next year or ever again, lol, due to reaching my maximum number). But I am really liking the black Tabby Hobo. I don’t have any black Coach leather hobo so there is a gap in my collection, lol. Coach hasn’t done a hobo I like in a few years. But I will try to be as strong as possible and wait till it goes to the outlet or FOS next year. In the meantime, maybe think about parting with a bag somehow.

Iam, I think if you are going to use the black Tabby hobo (and you like that style) I would get it and not worry about selling another.

First, I’m like @BeachBagGal in that I love black handbags. You can never have enough. They are good all year round.

Second, this bag is in a style you enjoy and would carry. It would be very functional for you.

Third, you’ve been careful over the years and refining your collection. I think you know what you want and use.

I say go for it! Can you get it for 30% off with the current promotion?

That’s great WE. So you are dating your bags too? Not sure if speed dating or regular dating, lol.

I guess it is regular dating. I'm just carrying what I want. Lately I'm staying in a bag for about a week at a time. I started recording at the beginning of the year. I guess at the end of the year I'm supposed to see what bags I didn't carry much and consider getting rid of them. Actually there aren't any surprises. I know which bags get used more and which bags I don't carry much, but I don't feel motivated to make more cuts than I already have. I downsized my wallet and now can carry my smaller bags easier, so they may end getting more use in the future.

I bought some Coach sneakers a few months ago and I've been trying to carry bags that coordinate with them so I get my money's worth out of them. They are sort of trendy so I'm not sure they will be in style next Spring. Once we really get into winter, I'll be living in Uggs. This Fall is still very warm. I've only worn a sweater once this season.

You are doing well in that you are mindful of your exercise. I’m a bit haphazard right now, squeezing in short walks, but trying to do what I can.

I actually hadn’t thought too much about a fourth Speedy until I saw @Chiichan ’s new Speedy and I thought it would be fun to have a MWT with those beautiful black handles! I’d go with a 30 as I like the size. However, I wouldn’t say no to Speedy 25 B in monogram, or an empriente Speedy. Too many choices. Good thing I’m waiting in the wings.

 

[Iamminda]

Thanks ML . I think I should try it on first before deciding. I am guessing the 30% off would apply (although I would prefer getting it at 50% off at the outlet, lol). I will try to see if I have time to go to the mall with Coach and my LV before Thanksgiving (i don’t like going to Malls during the holiday rush).

Iam, I think if you are going to use the black Tabby hobo (and you like that style) I would get it and not worry about selling another.

Happy Saturday my Ban Islanders. Off topic Question....


Adam Driver — yea or nay?

It is! The kids are especially excited. They want to push the stroller, and feed her and play with her. Lol if only they knew how little babies do in the first couple months.

Yeah, I think that’s what so good about this show. It stands really well on its own, but there’s lots of little hints and mentions of the original, that it’s still like a sequel.

Happy Saturday! Adam Driver... I feel like he’s a yay. He has this thing about him...

Is that Kylo Ren? Sorry I can't remember for sure. If so, yes. The last movie from Star Wars, I really enjoyed his portrayal of his character with Rey. I was kind of intrigued by him.

A yay. Something about him... he’s just kinda different and has his own original cuteness about him. Remember him from Girls? He used to kinda drive me nuts on that show. Lol

I've only seen him in the Star Wars movies, and you guys nailed it-he is intriguing! Tall, dark, intriguing...

Here she is with my other black brass rivet Rogue! Ahhhhh I wish I could use them both at the same time! I normally love my bags structured but there is just something about a slouchy black bag that looks loved and well used.

Very cool with the grommets! Your Rogue looks great all decorated-beautiful scarf! I know this has been said, but seriously Coach needs to hire you for styling ideas and photography!
