Which COACH bag are you carrying today?

[K.E.W.]

What do you use the Wristlet 30s for? I'm looking for an excuse to buy one, but I can't figure out how it would fit into my life.

I'm not sure yet. I have the Rodarte Black 30 (with the gorgeous multi-color leather petals), which is being preserved for any special function that will allow me to be fragile with it. And my Space 30 I haven't used yet, but I'm planning on either placing it inside one of my larger bags (kind of like a huge purse organizer), but then it would be hidden, so I also plan to carry it as an actual big clutch, on its own, when the whimsey factor is appropriate. And last but not least, it'll be a great IPad carrier (alone or inside a larger bag).

Honestly, as much as I love that Wristlet 30 size, I admit that size is not the most practical, but like SEWDimples, I find it must be in my collection...make sense? Of course, if EVERY Coach style included a Wristlet 30, that theory would go out the window!

If my "excuses" above don't make your cut, maybe you can wait for a really Special one to come out, that you won't need an excuse for, but that will just WOW you? Works for me!

Milk Sullivan -- my only "white" bag. I am a simple gal and wish Coach would put out more simple classic leather hobo like this.

Gorgeous!

Looks so nice and squishy soft! Great summer bag!

So pretty! How do you keep it so white? I got a double dinky recently and im wondering how to keep it white. It's actually a cream rather than a chalk white.

Thanks. Others can chime in but I think Milk is not as bright "white" as Chalk and might have a bit of yellow undertone. This is just from my recollection of what a Chalk Nomad looks like. Yep, I am ready for Coach to bring back the classics (or new classics).

It is very pretty! I don't have a Milk to compare but I know I found the Chalk "creamier" (less bright or stark white) than I expected it to be. Which was fine with me as I prefer more cream/ivory/off-white types of whites. But it may also differ between smooth and pebbled leathers (I have the Rogue 25, so pebbled), and in my bag's case it may also be affected by the red and oxblood contrasts. It might look brighter white if it was against black handles, for example.

Thank you

Thanks .

Thanks . It's off white in real life and since it is pebbled leather, it is pretty carefree (unless a pen run into it, lol). If I remember correctly, the dinky is gloved tanned leather? Which I find to be more delicate -- maybe some applegarde might help?

Thanks . You are right that the colors probably look a bit different on different types of leather.

As some of you already know, I have a weakness for summery, beachy, picnicy bags (I have many weaknesses.) So I have been pulling old favorites out of the closet all summer, including my straw Bonnie tote and my sunglow Preston. But my company's picnic is tomorrow so I dived back into the closet today and selected another old favorite - a very impractical bag that is just perfect for a picnic IMO!

You've probably seen her before, but here she is again, my Straw Basket Tote 10728 Brass/Natural/White from 2006. I bought this bag for $7 at the thrift store a few years ago and rehabbed it - and I love her!

I pulled a lot of accessories out of the closet too - including my watercolor ponytail scarf and Fiona sandals, and my Bonnie striped wallet and a Kate Spade envelope to complete the ensemble. I also took the opportunity to use my recently purchased, new to me, angel fish pendant as a fob and I will wear my punch Andee boyfriend watch, too. I'm ready to have some fun on a picnic!

I just hope that it doesn't rain!

Thanks but I forgot one item in the ensemble, my Coach Floral Hat! I've just stuck it in the basket bag - just in case!

I haven't posted much lately, but as always, I carry Coach almost all the time. [emoji56]
I can't seem to move out of archival rambler in carnelian.
I also carried my beautiful turnlock Borough in chalk to church.
I did cheat once for a girls night out. [emoji6] Treesje Metro clutch in electric blue [emoji7]

Such gorgeous bags as always! I remember the rambler and wish I had bought one now. The carnelian is very cheerful.

Is your chalk turnlock Borough the small size? The colour appears to be a warm white, is that correct? The leather texture looks a bit different than mine, which is pebbled. I like it a lot!
