So as I was scrolling through eBay looking for a casino bag I came across a beautiful Baxter... and I think I might be in love!!! (Lol I know, the two bags are completely different in both shape and size!)
For those of you who own one (or many :)), how do you like the handle? It looks stiff and I was wondering if it would be uncomfortable to carry if I were to hook it around my wrist/arm. Thanks!!!

The baxter does have a crossbody strap. Yes the handles are stiff like a on a briefcase.

I have been trying to "create" a bottle green dye but haven't been 100% successful. I attempted mixing Fiebings Kelly Green and Navy blue but it is still very - green. I'd also reccomend watching videos on dying leather. Leather dye is alcohol based so you want to make sure your bag is well conditioned but not over conditioned so it takes the dye evenly. Hope that helps and please share your results if you take the plunge!!!
Thank you for your reply! I ended up dunking it as some other people recommended and WOW I can’t bekieve how it helped! I have dunked bags before but I had no idea it would help so much with the scuffing! Thank you
 
My mom and I have both been collecting vintage Coach over the years, and yesterday we put our collections together so I thought I would share! I SWEAR we are not hoarders lol! (Coach hoarders, maybe)
