Which COACH bag are you carrying today?

[Addicted to bags]

This is the same photo as when I got the bag, but it's sitting in the same spot right now. This is an Academy pack in the Cordura fabric that I bought off Poshmark, with a Rexy pin of my own added. I have been using only this since getting it, almost a month now, and am still head over heels in love with it! It fits all my daily carry (two pairs of glasses, notebook + pen, pouch for misc. items, masks, and then my card case and AirPods in the little zip compartment on the front). I typically carry it on one shoulder, but when walking for longer distances will sling it around my body as it is meant to be worn. I love how casual it is, and since it's fabric I am trying not to worry about it as much if I am caught in the rain.

I bought a Gotham Pack in all leather in a yummy red and am debating whether to keep or not. So the trick is to carry on one shoulder when walking around? I like the look when it's slung on my back but I quickly realized what a pain it would be to get my phone or wallet out while making purchases. Let me test the over my shoulder method. I really like the pack but don't want to jump thru too many hoops to make it work for my lifestyle. Thanks.

Bella is a favourite already and I feel so cool when I carry her. My arm aches but I suffer for the beauty x

It's worth the pain!

I keep my card case in the front zipper pocket, so it's pretty easy to grab whether I have the strap across my chest or just on my shoulder. I just pull at the bag until it slides down under my armpit so the front is accessible if it is slung across my chest. It would not be as convenient if I had a larger wallet that stayed in the main compartment.

Thanks for your tips. I don't use backpacks so I thought the single strap sling style might work out better for me. I don't think I have a true use for the Gotham Pack but I really like the color so that's why I'm trying to justify keeping it

Thank you! It's a replacement for fuchsia Legacy duffle. BTW, I saw someone with a Legacy duffle the other day and DH said it was huge. Does he not know I have 3 of them?

Oh wow! I haven’t seen a Sabrina in a long time. Love the colour!

Thanks! I wasn't into Coach when the style came out. I got this one second hand primarily for the color, then realized the style is much cuter IRL than it looked to me in pictures.

I hope you can justify keeping it because it's so cute. But I have a lot of neglected red bags in my closet so I completely understand if you return it. (But make sure you can tell me you tried very hard to make it work before you do. )

He probably doesn't if he's like my DH.
He's so confused. I'll be looking at some bags in a store, and he would say, I like that, do you want it? And I'd be like, no. I already have it! And vice-versa.

I am so out of date on TPF!!! Working on catching up on all the beautiful Coach bags posted lately.

Today I wore my ‘rouge’ Quiltie Willis 18. Can’t wait to see if they do another batch of Willises in fun colors for late winter / spring.

Thank you! It’s such a fun punch of color. I have debated harrrrd getting the red one, and it’s now on sale, but I think I’m going to hold out to get a red Winnie at some point.
