Has anyone tried pairing this bag with the black tea rose tooling strap? Does it work/match? Thanks to these lovely pictures I will be receiving this bag for Christmas but I'm not so keen on the way the straps join together for cross-body wear.

I actually have the black tearose strap but have not paired it with this bag. I can pair it later today & take a quick pic & post.
 
I admit, I was skeptical about this strap working with this bags color scheme but it does! The little glitter studs almost pic up the green. I'd say go for it!

Thank you so much for the photos! It does look good. I had assumed the yellow-ish studs were brass or similar metal, but they are glitter? They do pick up the green. I think I'll go ahead and order the strap tomorrow.

They appear gold & are glittery but it really did take the green tone when I put it next to it! Get it Macys while they still have 30% off!

I wanted to ask how heavy the tea rose strap is? I’m considering getting it for my Utility, just like you, but am hesitating - I’ll be going to Coach to pick up my new Rogue 25 tomorrow, I’m hoping they’ll have a tea rose strap I can check out.

I don't find the tea rose strap to be very heavy. It's definitely heavier than a flat strap like they're currently offering but not nearly as heavy as the one that has the chain link. I have the strap that has the cross-stitch P
print and that's my favorite. I have this floral applique one which is also very comfortable. I had the one with the chain embedded in it and it was just way too heavy for me and I ended up taking it back. I think what is considered heavy is very much a personal preference and is determined mostly by what you carry every day. I actually haven't even carried my rogue with that strap yet. It's probably something on more likely to do in the summer. I don't know if that helps you but thought I would share my opinion!

It helps very much! Thank you. I knew anything with chain would be a bear, so haven’t considered that at all... But I really like the look of the black tea rose on your Utility Rogue 25, so am hoping to be ‘bag twins’ - ;)
 
I have that same black tea rose tooled strap and used it with my Dinky for quite a while. As you know, the Dinky is rather lightweight and the combo still felt lightweight but the strap, being wider, gave it a more substantial feel without adding weight. I hope that helps.

It does! And I was able to fondle the strap in question today at the Galleria Edina Coach store, and it is indeed a lightweight strap, so well made. I've got a lead on one on sale, so am off to buy right now - (and yes, it looked lovely with the Rogue 25 in Utility).
 
fun color! I am still debating getting the rogue 25 as well... I don't know what I was thinking buying the 17 because I couldn't fit anything :p I returned it and haven't repurchased another Rogue yet, but I may have to! How is the size working out for you?

The 25 is my absolute favorite size. I had the regular ones but sold them all.
Everyone organizes their stuff differently, but personally I put one of Coach's slim full-length envelope wallets in one of the exterior pockets; my cell phone, my work badge and some tissues in the other outer compartment; and my car keys, cosmetic case and shoulder straps in the middle zip compartment. This works out really well for me. I can't tell you enough how much you should just jump for it, particularly given it's on sale! I'm so shocked that both utility and Primrose are already on sale!
