She's here!! She's here!! I opted to get her gift boxed figuring it was a) free and b) the more protection the merrier. It arrived in the new cardboard shipping box. This box is the same as Nordstrom's cardboard box when they shipped my Bleecker Duffle.

Roll back the paper to reveal the gift box:

Coach's new black dust bag:

And here she is in all her feather fob glory:

And I immediately moved in (no tags to snip, did not come with one). My wallet in the front is a Marc Jacobs Marchive Slim wallet. It is about 7 3/4" long. Full size wallets will fit in here with no problem and room to boot. There is about 3 1/2" of space on the top left of the bag.

The detail on this bag is ah-mazing. Every little rivet, zip pull, and D ring is stamped with Coach. The leather feather has tiny gold rivets. The lining is the satiny black with Coach on it and the creed has no numbers. The numbers are on a small white ribbon sewn into the zip pocket.
 
Gorgeous!! Mine gets here in a week. I'm shipping the large one back tomorrow as it was just way too big and heavy. Though yes, leather and details were just stunning!!

I prefer that feather fob to the fringe, too!
 
omg I love this. Thank you for all the lovely photos. I love this bag, my dragonfly duffle needs a little sister for when she is too big to carry!!!

That is exactly why I got mine. I love, love, love my Bleecker Soft Port Duffle, but it can be too big sometimes (and during those times my DH jokingly refers to it as "my luggage"). I needed something small but practical. I tried the Bleecker Sport mini duffle, but to was too small. I had been saving my $$ since I saw the Dakotah in the fall preview and lost patience I guess. I am glad I held out in the end because it was so worth it!! And I love that I can carry all my normal handbag essentials without adjusting anything (i.e. switching to a smaller wallet to compensate for room).
