Cute. I did not know they sold this type of case.

So the last of my Coach purchases (I think my wallet just breathed a sigh of relief)-Dylan in dark denim and the square hologram sunglasses.
Most recent FOS purchases.
Mae Hobo in oxblood - one of the most beautiful bags ever. The picture does not do it justice.
Mae Crossbody in dark denim. This bag has an F in front of the style number on the sewn in tag, which seems odd since Coach.com was also listing this bag in this color (same style number except the F).
1941 Saddle in mineral with Whiplash. The whiplash has got to go. Still deciding how best to deal with that.

There is a post out there somewhere (not sure what thread) that shows how someone braided them. It looked great!
And just arrived...the Riley Crossbody in black, also from FOS. I've been wanting a small black bag but didn't want to spend a lot because it probably won't be used often. This was perfect at 70% off, arrived in mint condition, and even came with the dust bag.
I'm sure there are a bunch of videos on YouTube for how to make straps shorter. The SA at Coach put one of the chain straps through under the flap so both were clipped onto the same ring, this helped a couple inches for the Tea Rose bag. For the other one, we got a tie and tied up all the leather part of that strap- it's stuffed in the bag. Not a great solution but the best we had for that sort of strap.
Great to know, thanks!
For my vintage Regina I actually braided the leather strap at the top. I thought the braid might be better than knotting the ends of the strap to reduce the length and it also helps keep the bag on my shoulder, plus it can be undone. I have heard knotting leather straps is bad for the leather as it stretches it out, but what else is a petite gal supposed to do? I used this video for the braid: https://www.animatedknots.com/braid/
I have two of the chain crossbodies from the outlet, which are a similar design to the tea rose clutch. For those, I put a keyring onto the small metal loop on the bag meant for the dogleash clips. Then, I put the chainstrap through the keyring and clipped both ends to the other metal loop on the bag to use it as a shoulder purse. I think this would work for the tea rose clutch bag, too. I used keyrings from Coach bag charms in the matching metal color, since I never use the extra keyrings they put on most of the bag charms now.
I hope they enjoy their awesome new purses!
Ooh, I like this much better than the cloud color I had ordered and then returned. But I already have too many black bags :/ Seems like an awesome deal!
I'm glad you posted those pictures of the cloud Riley. I was seriously considering it until I saw how much it differed in real life from the stock photos Coach had.
Well that’s cute. Is this made specifically for ear buds? Didn’t know they made this.
I just received my accordion wallet with prairie rivets, but I don't think I'll be keeping it. I usually tend to be more minimalistic with my bags /accessories, and I'm also concerned that the rivets will damage my bags that have leather or suede linings. Gorgeous, though.
I might grab a different version of accordion wallet because the layout is great.
