Hello fellow Coach-Fans,
after deciding that I don't need a new bag for work and some detours by Chanel and Longchamp I finally found, that the Parker is my ideal bag-form, so I want to buy one for fall. But I can't decide on the color. Today I tried on the Parker in a silvery anthracite with gunmetal hardware. It fitted perfectly to my leather Jacket and looked edgy. But for fall I am thinking about buying a camel coat and wearing more warm colors, so I thought about the one with patchwork (without the top handle)

or an oxblood-colored.

Any suggestions?
Thank you!

Are talking about this colorblock Parker?

I think both color options are nice. The oxblood is more classic but the other colorblock adds a little bit of fun and wow factor to it.

Thank you, its not the colorblock Parker, it is just like the one with the handle just without. Maybe I just go with the one I like the most which would be the anthracite one.

I love how the different leathers are arranged in a striped pattern on the Parker in the first picture. It reminds me of the Legacy stripe fabric. The colors and textures looks really rich as well.

I am 32 years old. Lately I have been on a 1970’s fashion trip. This bag screams 70’s chic vibes. I just bought it in the sale. I got the matching card holder. All for under 300. How in the world does Coach keep their pricing so low??

I love that it has a trim around the flap of the Parker. I have been wanting a Parker but have been afraid of the flap deforming after prolonged use. The trim gives me reassurance.

Congratulations! How do you style the bag? I would love some photos! I also thought it has a strong seventies vibe.

My bag just arrived. It’s definitely darker than the website images appear especially the trim. I still like the bag though. It’s pebbled leather so it’s not gonna scratch easily which is nice.

It’s comfortable and casual even with the chain. It’s also roomy!!

I hope the pictures help.

It’s my (2nd) Parker (I have the 18 with the velvet and rivets) and I am glad I didn’t get it in the smoothest sleeker leather option.

Gorgeous! I love this one!! I agree with you that it gives a 1970s/vintage vibe. She's beautiful, enjoy her.
