I NEED another pink or purple bag like I need a hole in my head, but... :p Anxiously awaiting the pleated leather Audrey in fuchsia!! Should be here shortly!! :yahoo: I'm really hoping it's a nice bright color like the drilldown, but I realize that this is Coach we're talking about. :D

I'm not going to post pics because I don't want to spoil crystal-d's surprise and reveal, which I guess will be tomorrow? Anyone else ordered it?? Is it the same color as the drilldown photo??

I have to admit that as much as I don't care for black bags that much in general, I love it in this style, and I will probably exchange for the black if I'm not thrilled with the fuchsia! For me that's saying a LOT!!

I just got some information today.. According to my Sa they will have new Madison colors on the Floorset and New Poppy Item...

My Sa just showed me a Walnut Zip around wallet that goes prefect with the Madison Carryall amazing $218.00
 
Melissa, that's kinda what I thought too, almost a pea soup kinda green. When I think of a designer colour in lime green, I picture it as being more of a brighter colour. This picture looks like the outside of a not-quite-ripe lime. Maybe it'll look different IRL.
 
I want to see the new hippie. Very excited. :)
We found some pics of the new signature hippie earlier: http://forum.purseblog.com/coach/wh...-the-upcoming-line-528210-3.html#post13155557 (post 34) but none of a new leather one yet... not sure if there is more info about a leather version... :thinkin:

I also ordered the Fuschia Pleated Audrey but won't be getting it until the end of the week. If I don't like it I will not exchange it for the black one, as I already have too many black bags which I don't tend to use that much. That being said, if I don't like it, I will simply return it and get my money back. I also cannot wait to see this color. In the meantime while I'm waiting for the bag to arrive I'll be looking forward to Crystal's reveal. :smile1:

I got it...FINALLY....Fedex was very late today!!! The color is close to the stock photo which is good, but is perhaps a more reddish pink IRL (tad darker) than I see on my monitors here. My photos are a bit washed out no matter what I do.

Honestly, my feeling is this type of leather works better in the black. It is largely a patterned suede, and the "glazed dot" pattern creates the sparkle on the bag. I think a bit of this is lost with this color as opposed to black. Generally, I don't like black leather that much at all, but as with all styles, I think there are some colors which look better than others...even though I may not like the idea as much. :p In this case, with the material, sparkle, and hardware, I would probably have to vote for black. I don't really want to exchange the fuchsia, though (I THINK...jury still out!) because it's a gorgeous pink, and although it's not as pretty IMO as the magenta Madison, I was kind of craving another darkish bright pink bag! IMO this is a prettier color than the peony. I think I will probably get the black in addition to the fuchsia in this bag most likely...BUT.....

My main concern is that this SA had my bag gift wrapped. I NEVER do that, but just get it straight from JAX with the original packing because I love the tags intact, and I like having the extra packing paper rather than the boxes since I have a pile of them! Problem is when I get these bags gift wrapped, they seem to ALWAYS get them dirty at JAX!! :tdown: It's like they drag the bag across a dirty table back and forth....the corners of this bag have a little wear and dirt. Therefore, for my money, I will at least be exchanging this bag for a new one that is left in its original packing. The worst experience I ever had with JAX was with my sunflower Bridgit...the entire back was dirty!!

That said, I have a MAJOR concern with this delicate patterned soft suede-like material. With a light color, this is probably going to be transfer disaster central! I would say a diluted suede/nubuck cleaner will work, but you have to worry about the "glazed dots" from the pattern...you don't want to remove that. The bag is largely this material, so overall, the black is FAR more practical IMO. But since I have enough bags to rotate around, it's not as much of a concern to me. I'll have to carry it on the shoulder, though, away from jeans or dark clothing. That's the downside. You know, something like my peony croc I can just wipe off or use conditioner to remove any transfer....it's more like a patent. This is an extremely porous suede material.
