This is exactly why I'm confused!!!
@Bagmedic , maybe I'm confusing it with just 'denim', since I completely remember the snake/dark dark turquoise deep blue satchel, and with the oxblood piping it was absolutely striking!!! I'm really thinking this is a lighter blue (almost cornflower-y); AND without the snake contrast, it enters 'BLAH' territory. What do you think?! I'll re-pic tomorrow in daylight...

Aaand, I was thinking this satchel was bigger than it is, since I thought it would be more duffel-travel-sized, therefore neutral being more 'OK'. Hm. (Though I suppose it may be more usable in this size.. but do I want to convince myself to 'have to'?! Weird.)

So, @tealocean, would you actually use these do you think?! Based on the above-

PS- @Bagmedic , that is totally me! I should look up the actual color again, since I'm getting confused.
I'm really not sure now. I thought the blues were the same "denim" color but the handles were just different. There was a mineral blue that was the first generation rogue but not in this doctor's satchel style - just regular rogue style. Maybe the handles being different give it a different look. I know I like mine because of the contrasting handles. Wish Coach made it so we could buy handles and interchange them on the bags! They really do make a difference in the look!

No, and it sounds like you don't like them. I think they're fine and would go with everything, but you want to be excited about them. I'd exchange them for something that makes you instantly smile! Glance at one of your favorite bags/colors and see how you instantly light up. Then look at these and see how you feel. My favorite neutral is black, and I have a grey and chalk bags I like, but I like them more with a scarf or charm to color them. My favorites are colors though! Red, deep teals and bright blues and a little bright pink when I'm in the mood for it. (I want a bright sapphire or ultra violet!) Now that I have 2 turquoise bags, new ones will have to work to measure up! :smile:

@pianolize congrats on the new pretties! I would love to see a mod shot with that Rogue Satchel. I find it funny that the Coach Outlet keeps emailing me about that particular bag and it has been sold out for a while now on the sale. It keeps saying "It is going fast! You better buy it!" LOL. Um can't!
They keep emailing me to hurry up and by my wishlist bags, but I wasn't invited to the sale. They're helping me get ready for a real ban. ;)

Congrats on your new beauties!!

I think these are two colors that work well as with so many others.

Both will go so well with black. They pop but don’t have “too” much contrast.

I’d pair the blue with just about everything black, white, grey, silver, gold, red, orange, yellow, green, purple, pink, brown, taupe, beige and complimentary shades of blue... You can also do three colors if you keep them in the same tone: For example this color would pair well with a camel / brown combo or even a muted burgundy / pink combo and many others.

The pink is similar. I personally wouldn’t wear it with clear bright red, citrusy colors or neons because IMHO the brights wouldn’t go well with this slightly muted shade of pink. Other than that, think. It could go with just about anything!

Enjoy your new additions!
Thanks so much for your input- I'm thinking they're perfect for dull winter doldrums-w-neutrals (I totally get your combo choices but have no camels/browns/those colors you've mentioned!)

I'm also thinking that now that it's sunny out, I'm thinking more vibrant.

I don’t wear jeans very often (in fact I’m back in my heels! Yay!)

But, I did wear jeans and this bag on a trip a few months ago and got color transfer all over the back. I was completely freaked out. Then I remembered that @dcooney4 (I think it was you dc, correct me if I’m wrong) mentioned using baby wipes to remove color transfer. I didn’t have those so I gingerly used makeup wipes. Lo and behold - it all came out! I was so happy I could have cried!

So, now I’m super careful. But, I’ll keep this trick in mind for future.
Makeup cleansers! Great idea! I'm a huge fan of jeans+heels, as I rarely wear flats. So the color transfer from whatever just kills me.

I'm really not sure now. I thought the blues were the same "denim" color but the handles were just different. There was a mineral blue that was the first generation rogue but not in this doctor's satchel style - just regular rogue style. Maybe the handles being different give it a different look. I know I like mine because of the contrasting handles. Wish Coach made it so we could buy handles and interchange them on the bags! They really do make a difference in the look!
So maybe they ARE the same- I'd actually wondered whether I could go get them attached @Coach house or something, since I'm trying to replicate that bag I can no longer get! Therefore, it looks "blank" to me. If I'm using it regularly ('not as a travel bag'), it feels 'missing'...:sad:

So true, so true! If they were easier to return, I think I would have by now. I'm sitting with them to see if it's just seasonal excitement for a color pop, after I'm getting over my initial surprise at the shades, though they really are beautiful and have nothing like them, color-wise.

They keep emailing me to hurry up and by my wishlist bags, but I wasn't invited to the sale. They're helping me get ready for a real ban. ;)
Haha, good!!! WHY do they do that?! :shocked:

Thanks both!!! @tealocean , the rogue is 'dark denim/old brass', and the Faye is 'antique rose/gold'? I'll try to get the color on the photo better- they're both truly beautiful, but I was hoping/remembering a darker, deeper blue (mineral?!); and a pinker 'rose'.

They really are freestanding, 'neutral' colors- but since I either wear blacks OR a crazy color, they'd clash OR I'd pick a more vibrant or metallic color to offset the blacks/grays!!! Or go straight black. (@carterazo & @Sparkletastic , I feel I need to ask your thoughts on this!!! :confused1:)
These are great colors, @pianolize! The dark denim is a perfect neutral. I think it would go great with black/grey and would tone down a lot of crazy colors. I would pair it with pinks, yellows, greens, and orange, as well as whites and beiges. The mineral you mention is rather similar in tone and it was really more of a dark teal. At least the mineral Rogue I have.

Thinking back of the first (stock) picture you posted of the Faye when you bought it, I know it's a delightful rose color. I love it! [emoji7] I think it's a perfect pink for black and greys. The contrast is not too harsh imo. It would be delicious paired with a black and white outfit. It's a deep rose without being too bright, or too dark. Don't you think? This pink can be dressed up or down too. I love the contrast of the three types of leather as well. But you have to love it so that you can enjoy it. [emoji4] [emoji173] If you don't love the colors, don't let our excitement sway you. [emoji56]

Can you post other pics in a different light?

thanks, @carterazo !
The pinks with the suede I just love!!! I think you're totally right, since when ordering I was on a black/white kick.

About the satchel-
I THINK I SHOULD HAVE gotten the dk teal-ish mineral?/snake handled satchel when I first saw it. This one seems lighter and not as stunningly gorgeous as the original I'd wanted. And smaller than the travel bag I'd envisioned. Maybe I should take the wrapping off and walk around with it. (And look up the returns! I'm feeling like IF I can find the other in a comparable price , though it's skyrocketed, I'll buy/return. Haven't been able to though-it just doesn't seem available...)

@Sparkletastic would you come over and put outfits together for me!! Lol. You gave me some good ideas!
One of these days I’m going to put outfits together and take pictures. At 5:30 in the morning I’m a little too lazy to try and ‘style’ outfits! There’s an app for this too but I can’t remember what it’s called

Here’s my newest. I wanted a tote in pink. I was looking at the Market Tote, which is a similar design as an LV Neverfull, but wasn’t sure if I would like a bag with little organization and no zipper.
Then I see this in Macys and it is a bit basic (to me anyway), but checked off all my requirements!
It’s super comfortable, lightweight and the leather is yummy!!
Taylor Tote in Dusty Rose and her Unicorn charm :)

It sounds like you should search for the one you truly love. Hopefully you find it in time to return this other one. Good luck!
