I was seriously contemplating the Marelle Tote, thanks to New To Coach’s reveal, because of its beautiful clean lines and understated elegance. However, I didn’t do the bag justice when I went to the store dressed in a well loved old T-shirt (with holes from over the years), baggy jeans, Birkenstocks, and frazzled hair pulled back in a pony tail. In fact, when I approached the greeter at the door to check in, I got the up and down look as if she wanted to say Walmart is down the street…LOL!!
I didn’t care because I’m more mature now (aka old) and feel I’ve earned the right to be comfortable. The SA was super nice and non-judgmental and proceeded to show me other pieces that complemented my style (or lack of
). Options in store was limited so we looked online and that’s when I saw the bag that sang to me!
