So, what is a great classic black leather bag?

[Rainbow 06]

My (not so) Little Black Bag is the Soho Large Hobo in black leather. I love it more every time I carry it! It's comfy and, although it holds a ton, it doesn't look that huge. Not too big, not too small. Even though it's a hobo, it's not really very slouchy, so it's less casual and more classic looking - and therefore timeless - than some of the more trendy shapes, and I think I'll be able to carry it for years. It works with ANY of my outfits that black goes with, unless I'm in out-and-out evening wear. Casual clothes, work clothes, date clothes...it really is a great all-around black bag! I HIGHLY recommend it. I don't think it's available through the Coach site anymore, but I know it's in the outlets, and no doubt you'd be able to pick one up on eBay.

Do you have a pic of it, cannot remember it at all? It sounds nice
. I saw the one with the laces at the outlet, duffle yesterday pebble, but I wanted leather...Thank you!!!!

i agree w/Liz that ergo sound intriguing

Thank Glitter..A good idea. I wonder how that slouches and if the medium will be big enough..and a stable that does not change in classic looks. !! I love it with the scarf. If I could find the right tote in leather, I would do it. Thank you!!!!

The black patent leather ergo Hobo will be out in May and that is what I am buying. I too need a classic black bag and I think it is sumtuous in the black patent leather. It is also lightweight and won't hurt your back.

Good Luck!
Liz

I agree..the black patent would be nice..wonder if the big falls well unlike the the large hobo...or the medium would work in black. Patent..I wonder if it will be enduring for style or just current for now? What do you think???
Thanks!!!

I just purchased a black legacy shoulder hippie today, but the totes are always a nice choice. And that black patent Ergo - that is one HOTTT bag!! So many choices.

I like it too but not the really big one...maybe the medium if the patent stays in style for a classic look!!

I am all for the black Ali; simple but hip.

I am trying to get it in the slim flap...love that bag!!! Have it in signature and whiskey!!!!

 

[Rainbow 06]

signature slim flap!!!

Now that idea I like a lot since there is only one black leather one...Yes..good idea...

 

[Rainbow 06]

I'm all for triplets - the black flap sounds gorgy to me.

Yes if I can get it...hopefully I can. YEA!!!!!! for you!!!

What about a black ergo?

You know I tried it and it just did not feel right to me..at all..too big..hoping to find an Ali signature flap in black or a slim flap leather...Thanks!!!

I got it in white at the outlet. I am looking fof a black cute slouchy one. Thanks!!!!

I've seen the black pleated hobo at TJ Maxx lately, so you may want to check there.

My suggestions:
The leather Ali
The Ergo leather tote
A Hampton's carryall

Good luck. I'm sure when you see her, you will know that its the perfect bag for you.

Slim flap at an outlet?
I wish I had outlets like you guys.

I just got the Ergo medium tote in turquoise and it's fabulous. It's very lightweight, the leather is super soft and it holds a lot. A scarf would look beautiful on it as well.

I don't yet, because our camera cable is missing. But here's the drilldown, if you can picture it in black instead of brown:
