Hi @K.E.W. Yes, everything pictured in my haul was 70% off. Some items were on clearance and other things were not. The KH totes were around $93 each.

Those Lelia shoes are my new favorite because they are really comfortable. I have black suede, wine suede and saddle/black colorblock.

Wow, you must have some huge Coach Shoe collection!! I remember seeing some of your sneakers (I think either KH or Disney, or both!). So now you own FOUR Lelia pairs??

Yes, I do. I used to buy Coach shoes from the FOS until they locked me out. Now, I buy them from outlet or on sale at full price boutique.

No, I own 3 pairs of Lelia flats, 1 pair of Penny, 1 Mickey Porter sneaker, 1 NY Patches Porter sneaker and 2 pair of KH sneakers.

Guys, as I’ve noted, this bag was difficult to capture accurately — but hopefully you’ll get an idea of the overall look.

For starters, since Coach’s online photos show a great view of the bags interior, I focused mostly on exterior leather closeups and the actual holographic sequins that make up the heart, since I have seen NO details of the heart anywhere! I actually took a chance on ordering it, as there was no clear photo available anywhere — probably still isn’t.

Fortunately, I’m okay with the sequin colors, albeit I would have preferred a more Redish/Orange theme, especially since Valentine’s Day is nearing, plus it would have been a nicer contrast to the gray/metallic silver leather.

I hung it up on my shower curtain rod for easier access, using bright bathroom lighting. Parts of the straps are excluded to make the closeups easier to access. Also, note that even though we keep calling the leather gray, it IS more of a Smokey metallic silver...and a matted silver, NOT shiny. Anyway, since these photos are not going up on Ebay, I’m not looking for perfect shots.

LMK if you have any questions — Coach’s website accurately shows the interior and their mannequin model scales the size. You can see that it’s a Rogue 25, much smaller than regular size.

I believe that the heart details will be the most valuable closeup for potential buyers to see, since all other parts might not be dealbreakers, as they’re already revealed online. BTW, the extreme heart closeup is the more ACCURATE color of the sequins — the heart colors you see on the hanging bag are quite different than that one zoomed in shot...another example of how the holographic sequins vary from angle to angle ofbthe lens, altering the reflection colors...ugh!!
Hi @K.E.W. Congrats on your new KH Rogue. It is really beautiful and unique. I love color and the leather sequins. I have several Coach X Rodarte bags with the same sequins. Enjoy your new beauty.
 
That sucks that you’re still locked out! I’m not technically locked out, but that website is so poorly maintained that I rarely get in before trying like 20 times, with such major delays in waiting for the site to sell out of anything decent, since it freezes up constantly...so I just give up! Great for sales, huh? Well, the wallet is happy though.

If you ever want some screenshots AND I’m able to get in within my first 25 tries, I’ll be happy to send you images. I think you go to outlets a lot though, so it’s probably no biggie for you...my closest outlet is 1 1/2 hour’s by car w/no traffic! :thumbsdown:

Thx! Yeah, the sequins reminded me of my own Rodarte, Black clutch with sequins. They look identical, actually, since they’re also made of leather and even similar colors!! Just realized that as imtyping my reply here!

Yes, I pass one outlet on my way to and from work, so it is no big deal. I believe they have my locked out on purpose because I have 2 outlets within 10 - 20 minutes of my house and 2 additional about 45 mins to 1.5 hours.

Are you obsessed with it? I'm a little sad it's sold out on NM website, but was wondering if you think it is worth the price tag on it.

I am quite curious too. Besides my recent Minnie Dinky purchase, it has been quite a long time (since the 1990s) that I've purchased any Coach bags full price. I am already having guilt and I don't even know if I am getting this bag or not! What do you think @K.E.W. ? Is it a keeper?

Heather gray. I had a tough time getting a good picture of the color but the photo I used comes closest. It looks a little bit darker in real life. The inside bag is oxblood.

That’s a nice simple but elegant bag! I can see that it’s a big challenge to capture the color accurately....those grays are extra tricky! To me, it even has a hint of green in it, maybe the green striped upholstery that it’s sitting on is influencing the color somehow, if that makes sense?

The bag is really lovely!

I wouldn’t say I’m obsessed with it, but since it’s my first Coach (or ANY) bag purchase since probably last October, I felt it was time for a mini splurge, if you get my drift. :lol:

It’s hard to judge if it’s worth the price tag — if you’re willing to pay that, then it’s worth it, no? Between the beautiful smooth leather and the leather sequins on the heart, it’s a nice KH piece in quality Coach leather. If you can take it or leave it, it’s probably overpriced....but that would be the case for ANY bag.

Even though I haven’t carried her yet, I’m finding that the Rogue 25 is not as tiny as I had imagined, which is deadly for my wallet! I’ve loved many previous Rogue 25 color releases that I passed up, wishing it was larger. I think the 25 would make a cute crossbody size on days that I can pull off lugging less crap around, haha! This scares me a little, honestly.

I hope I answered your question!

Yeah, I have not been as smart or selective as I imagine you have been, regarding any discipline with only buying items that are discounted or on sale. I tend to jump in first and regret it later, ESPECIALLY with Coach’s trend to often mark down higher end leather bags, diluting the value, as is often discussed in here. I used to be bitter about that, but ultimately have accepted that it was 100 percent my doing, or my choice, to throw money at Coach. I have little respect for how they treat their loyal followers, but it’s still MY choice whether or not to continue making any purchase.

I hope I’m not sounding preachy here, but it’ gets so tiresome to constantly see how people take no accountability for their part in making poor decisions (about ANYTHING). I’m one of the biggest offenders of that, but becoming more aware of it. Just my 2 cents. :lol:

Btw, she is a keeper, lol.
