This is a pic from the online store, but I just ordered myself a Frank Clegg Classic Backpack to use as an every day carry. This is a brand I've discovered that makes handmade leather goods up in Massachusetts, famous for their briefcases and tote bags. Their style sort of reminds me of the way Coach used to be pre-2000. Looking forward to getting this in about a month, as they have to make it to order. Looking forward to taking and posting some IRL pictures when it arrives.

Beautiful color and also reminds me of Coach from that time frame. Looks like a gorgeous and durable bag!
 
I’ve been loving this new Charter Crossbody from Coach. It serves a similar sort of purpose as what I would have used the Trio Messenger for. I purchased the Trio from LV in January last year for £1300, wasn’t completely convinced that I loved it, so returned it… recently considered buying it again and it is now, after two price increases, almost £1800. Absolutely not going to entertain that, so I found this all leather little bag from Coach for under £300. I love me some camouflage so this is perfect for me!

This is the second Coach bag I’ve bought this year and I’ve found the quality to be really good.

I do enjoy some good Coach. I actually almost got the Gotham Messenger 27 in Saddle yesterday, but passed on it in favor of getting the aforementioned Frank Clegg backpack.
 
Needed a change of pace (and price!) and was intrigued by the new round Telfar bag. I love Telfar Clemens and what he does, and recently watched his fashion show on Telfar TV - a nice change from the usual. This round bag is totally weatherproof, large enough to hold everything I need, and the longer strap means I can easily wear crossbody. I included a “what’s in my bag” shot for ref. 0428885F-FD06-4826-B83C-17F077A67D44.jpeg0351C084-D163-49F7-8AED-923CCE8F7AC7.jpeg

You are so lucky to have scored this cutie T :). I only learned of this bag a few days ago from a PF blog post and the black was already sold out. Love it :)

Thank you! :hugs: I am on Telfar’s email list that shows drops etc. and I watched the fashion show which was so different and at the end they put up a QR code to buy the bag ahead of online drop. He’s really trying to control his own distribution and at least somewhat foil the bots! I love he’s trying to turn the rigid world of fashion into something that works for everyone. And the bag is great, made in Italy. The detachable shoulder strap makes a huge difference.
