I hear ya! My "workhorse" is my Bleecker tote. I could probably shoplift a Thanksgiving turkey in it.
Love a roomy black bag!

I am wondering if I need to find another. It is durable and functional for me!
Maybe get an Edie in another color?
I would get a second of my vintage Dooney Equestrian because I love it so much. My Equestrian is black but someday would love to get it in green or red.
Well, I’m in the passenger seat, but I have my Haring UFO tote with me.
Thank you for all this! Do you know if the turn lock was invented by Cashin and whether it while she was with Coach? I really find them beautiful.
I honestly don't know if Cashin was experimenting with turnlock closures before her collaboration with Coach. Early in her career she did costume in Hollywood and she used turnlocks in lots of her sportswear designs, like on coats and dresses. I've read she designed the specific style of turnlock used at Coach in the 1960s but there were turnlock closures before that; she was just one of the first people to use such hardware on clothing. I'm not sure about the exact timeline of her sportswear collections. Google Stephanie Lake. She is a jewelry designer and former mentee of Cashin who inherited her entire archive and design holdings. Lake curates a couple instagram accounts and has a website too. She also wrote a book about Cashin I want to get called "Bonnie Cashin: Chic is Where You Find It."
Cashin got the idea of turnlocks from her convertible top of her car. She didn't invent them, but was the one who started using them on women's accessories.
