Need some advice. I’m looking for a Carrier or a Musette to carry a laptop and tablet back and forth to work. (Maybe even throw in a couple of pouches and I won’t carry a purse to work if there is room.)
Anyway, I do love this canvas/leather combo. What do you think about the damage? Think it’ll hold up, or will I always worry about stressing the bag further??
TIA
ETA: I live in the Pacific NW. May take the train and will possibly get somewhat wet/damp.

I think the leather might be cracked and dry beyond it being rehab material. It's always hard to know for sure from pictures. It's quite a price for all that damage too, but it does look like a really awesome rare bag.

I'm also in the Pac NW, Portland OR.

Are you carrying both a laptop and a tablet? I don't think a Musette would be good for carrying both at the same time. I think a Carrier would be better. I can carry my 13" MacBook Air in my Musette, but I don't put my heavier and larger 15" MacBook Pro in it. A Musette is not that big of a bag.

I also echo the concern about the Twill. I think it is hard to clean if it gets dirty.

If anyone sees City Key Fobs for a decent price let me know. I just purchased a mint green one for a meh price but the addiction prevails.

Too many to quote. So just know it’s to all.
Thanks for all the second opinions! I do think it needs to be the Carrier for space to use as a brief and maybe a purse.
Darn, I love that look of the twill/Leather though.
Yes, price is very high. Don’t think I usually spend that on ONE item though.
Potentially changing career paths after 23 years in the current biz. I felt I deserved to splurge and get something swanky.
So, between now and then I’ll continue to seek a Carrier....

Hi neighbor to the south! I’m in Seattle.
Don’t you just [emoji173]️ Powell’s City of Books??
Wish I visited more often.

Maybe last spring? Two of these (green 9085) were up for auction in the same week. Maybe a little bit more wear on them, I can't recall exactly. Several bidders on both; one went for just over $160 and the other over $180. It does look very clean on the inside.

Sharing my new Bonnie Cashin for Sills coat at whateve's suggestion Love it so much! After reading up about how cool Bonnie Cashin was, I knew I had to buy something of hers and was happy to find a coat that fit my needs! So my shopping was practical and not just frivolous collecting It's a little bit more worn than the seller described, but nothing noticeable or out of the ordinary for vintage! It's so thick and warm that I can't wait to use it this winter!

What a great find! I would totally wear something like that today. And I bet it will still be wearable when all of today's Made In China/Bangladesh/Myanmar garbage is stewing away in some third-world landfill.

That's beautiful! Congrats.

May I ask where you found the "Bonnie Cashin" tags/label? The reason I ask is because on the ebay fashion board, someone asked about a piece of clothing (shirt/vest/pullover top/?) that she thinks is BC but couldn't find any labeling.

No problem! There's a label sewn on an inner seam, the seam that connects the front and back panel. There's also a label near the mouth of the pocket!

I LOVE Coach bags!!!! I also love French Bulldogs! Weird connection. I know.. haha. But I got this beautiful 2004 edition ladybug bag at a fundraising event for french Bulldogs. My first authentic Coach bag ever. I am SO in love! (My mom loved ladybugs.. and ever since she passed away in1998 I am a ladybug magnet. Wherever I go I seem to have ladybugs land on me, and... I think of my mom I got this bag in August 2017 and I am pretty sure it was meant to be thank you for reading

Aw, what a cute bag! I have a coordinating keychain and another Coach ladybug. I also have a French bulldog keychain.

I love Coach bags and French Bulldogs too. But sadly, my almost nine year old Frenchie, Wolfgang, died in July. I sure do miss that boy.

Whateve, I have this French Bulldog keychain too. I really like the Poppy keychain too.

I'm so sorry you lost your lovely Wolfgang. His life was way too short. I just ordered this keychain from Kate Spade.
