Someone posted they saw the Colbat Sophia at the outlet just this week. Maybe you can get lucky and find one.
I have actually owned my HGs and returned or rehomed. Cranberry Sabrina....got it once from an ebay seller and it was not in the greatest condition....think she used Coach cleaner on it and the color was faded. Then bought this again from when the outlets had them but the condition was a bit scratched up. This bag in pristine condition I would love to own.
Black foral sophia....still think this bag is too big for me which is why I returned it, but keep second guessing that decision.

I know I harp on about this bag all the time, but this bag is my all time favourite. I love this one even more than my Chanels! What am I talking about? The original Lindsay in Mahogany/expresso, whatever the colour was. Honestly, I'd like to get this bag in the teal and in the putty colours. Here's my baby:

My Holy Grail(s) were inspired by other member's HGs. They are the Legacy Leigh, Braided Soho Tobacco Leather Tote, and the black Chelsea Abbey.
I started my Coach collection soon after these bags were discontinued so eBay has been a trial and error in acquiring these bags. The straw Legacy tote and banana colored Kristin satchel come close too.
I got all of these as well as a few others within a year that I need to ban myself for a couple of years. Unless I see a vintage Navy Court Bag (my next HG). Hopefully that will be my last HG ever (for awhile)!

This is/was my HG Coach bag! This is the bag that Coach successfully caught back my attention like a few years ago? Is an OP Art Sabrina. I can't stop using her! I bring her to work, shopping, travel, tea, etc. As you can see, she is getting older day by day due to the wear and tears. She is the one and only Coach bag that I keep on using her. I just hope that she can stay with me forever...
You know, I bought a few carolines and the Vachetta at Macys during their awesome sale. Wasn't sure I was going to love it, but I totally love it. Kinda of surprised me.
That's how I'm approaching my Coach buys. I don't have the luxury buying new bags often from Coach , but I like to see how a newer or past season bag stands up in other Coach buyers' experiences and it makes me more comfortable 'going for it' if it's getting good reviews, etc. I'm loving all the bags posted here, and it's nice to see some classics coming up in the conversation too. I need to dig in my vintage bag collection and see if I have a Court bag in Navy. Many of the ones that I buy to fix up/refurbish I keep, and some I pass along at some point.
My HG used to be the Legacy Mandy Courier. I finally got her over a year ago from Bonanzle (now Bonanza).
Most recently it was the Kristin Elevated Leather Flap Satchel in sorbet. This summer I was able to order one from JAX (they had 3 available).
Right now I'm really wishing I could get my hands on a crimson patent MSB from last year without paying an arm and a leg!

Whiskey Ali!
I have Ali in black, white, and natural (gave the natural to my stepmom; she loves it!) but always wanted it in Whiskey and never could find one in new or excellent condition. Finally...not only do I finally have one, she's brand new. Well, brand new in 2006, but never used...although the Legacy '06 bags are heavy, they are my absolute favorite and Whiskey is my favorite Legacy color.
I'm a happy girl!

I must admit I have a couple of HG Bags. All of which are from the Madison line, my favorite coach line. These are very dear to my heart and I can never ever part with.
Madison Floral Sophia, Madison Putty Embellished Sophia and Madison Gathered Black Leather Sophia.
I agree with Madison Putty Embellished Sophia and Madison Gathered Black Leather Sophia and then I also added Zoe to my HG list.
Sophia and Zoe are my HG styles!!!
