Troupe shoulder in KF floral. The strap that comes with it is nice and thick, but not long enough to use crossbody. I added a just in snakeskin strap, a tearose charm and had a moon put on my card case to really empty my poor wallet.

I got a chance to see a bunch of new items today. I went in with the intention of only buying the charm, but I have no willpower.
OMG - love!

Very pretty! How's the width of the bag for holding stuff?
 
Ok, super shocked at how much I am in love with this little lady...Tilly Top Handle from FOS. The leather & ostrich embossing is really nice done; soft & detailed. Love the metal Coach logo on the side & it has feet! The top handle seems (at first glance) to be designed in a way that it stays up. Full length exterior slip pocket. The interior is dark burgundy microfiber. Two interior sections separated by a center zip compartment. There is also a small slip pocket at the back.
It fits my soft slim envelope wallet. It will easily fit the same amount of stuff as my Cassie.
I am very happy with this purchase!

Nice! I would love for them to use this oldy style leather again! When they did the remakes of some older styles (2012?) do you know if the leather was the same? So I can hope. :smile:
@tealocean To be clear, my comment about the Manor was in response the lovely Tilly Teagagle posted. The style appears to be based on the vintage Manor.
Unfortunately, :sad: I just don’t see Coach ever releasing bags made in the original unlined leather again. But that’s not a problem for me, considering all the vintage I acquired in the past few years!
Over the past few years, they have released a few bags based on vintage styles. The new releases have been lined, very much in line with current materials offered. They based a bag in the Selena collaboration on the vintage Trail bag, they released a bag based on the vintage Courier about 2 years ago, the Willis 2.0 ( lol my nickname), Saddle Bags based on the original flap bag . . . Just off the top of my head. And in the ID thread, a Tabitha Simmons bag is styled exactly from a Bonnie Cashin design.

So trying to fit some items in there it's actually not great. My soft wallet barely fits and my phone only fits vertically in the zip pocket vs horizontal. I can fit wallet and phone in main compartment, but foresee a struggle. Oh and this hardware already came apart :confused1: so I don't think it's going to be a keeper as pretty as it is:noworry:.

Oh geeze! I'd say not! That is a big hardware design flaw! Disappointing.

Oh no!!!!! I guess I will be taking this off my list. Wonder if the large troupes will have the same problem with hardware?

I played with the troupe totes yesterday and they didn't have the same hardware on the sides, only the turnlock front. They were actually pretty nice and simple to open. This shoulder bag has a very strong magnet (the entire bar top is a magnet) and it seems to want to close crooked so I have to push it straight each time. Too many moving parts!

I think we have the same SA? She sent me pics wearing the signature troupe yesterday. We are similar height and it looked great on her, I put the signature/floral troupe back on my list if it ever comes back in stock.

I think we do! She's the best and zero pressure!

I caved yesterday and bought from my local SA, who's great too, but I find I give our mutual SA the majority of my business. Local SA offered to send another of the shoulder bag and if it breaks again exchange for something else. I'm kind of kicking myself for not getting the tabby 26 in this print, especially considering the upcoming customization options of the buckle. It would look really great with an iridescent buckle! Can't decide if I should just return shoulder or try again...
