Love the troupe. Backpack is adorable, but a no. Too hard to close and not a fan of the scar right on front.
After playing with both troupes a little today I found that the blue one really snaps together with the magnetic bar but the red one with brass does not. I have to fiddle with it to get it to stay and turn the turnlock. The blue bag snaps together immediately and stays even without locking it. Do yours do this too?

ETA the leather is much softer on the blue one as well.
 
Love that charm on the red Troupe...both troupe keepers? Agree on the backpack scar...
The red is definitely a keeper. Not sure on the blue. It's not wowing me and I'm not sure if I can make this style useful enough to have 2 because the shoulder strap is too long. It works crossbody if I don't mind the handles and of course can hand carry. I really only use from car to office and back so not a big deal and if I stop at the store crossbody would suffice for a quick visit. On the other hand I really don't want to have too many returns considering the backpack is going back....

Mine seem to both snap the same. I don't even see the need to turn the turnlock because it seems pretty secure.
Yes the pebbled leather is softer on the blue. I wonder if the red will soften? I've been using my harmony for a good while now and it's just beginning to soften...
 
This is technically cheating...
I returned a pair of coach boots dh got me for Christmas and used the funds for this.
A Demellier Nano venice in cognac snake.
It is itty bitty 7"×7" but holds essentials.
I think I love it (JUST UNBOXEDl. Just glad I got it on sale as fp would have been nutty for this little baby.
What do you think tpf?

Cute! I love exotic bags. Enjoy.
 
Congrats! You found another 1st generation Rogue. You are good at finding these bags. I love the color and how it looks great with the suede lining. Enjoy!

I have a few bags coming (final purchases before the new year) and I will be on a bag ban. I need to focus on some other things in 2020.
I sift through pretty much all the ebay listings and look for bags that are sold by sellers that have good seller ratings but don't know Coach that well :biggrin:. I also will buy from Coach experts that price their bags fairly and have bags in great condition. :)

I got a really good price for the bag and it's looks like it was barely used.

I am on a six month purse ban now. I want to concentrate on other things too, mostly my writing, and my new job promotion. :smile:

Happy New Year! :party:
