I've never been and would love to go!Its been a 20 year dream and taken me 3 years to get to this point... just need the spending money for it...thats the problem..Ive been buying bags not Euros.
Lovely!!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?
Congrats!!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. 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.
Happy New Year!![]()
I'm definitely keeping red. Blue isn't going back, but may get rehomed. My ban starts tomorrow and it's paid for with 2019 dollars (and was 50/20) so may just keep it too. Debating throwing some customization on there, but will probably try to jazz it up with a charm for a less permanent remedy. I will use red first and decide if I like the style enough to keep blue.I love these colors together on the Tabby.
Red and blue colorblock troupe totes. I don't think I can decide between them.

I have this fear that the other 3 arriving Monday will be keepers too as long as they are in good shape. If I do then I cannot purchase even one bag in 2020. That will be quite a feat but I got beautiful bags during this sale so plenty of closet shopping is available. I am not going to beat myself up over this. I took the snakeskin tea rose rogue and the rogue 25 back out of their shipping boxes today too.I'm definitely keeping red. Blue isn't going back, but may get rehomed.

I looked at it again today and liked it better than yesterday lol. I did check out the magnet and do agree that red is less "magnetic" than blue. Not sure why that is....
So basically I'm no help...maybe wait for all your other bags to come in and then decide? I have 4 more coming and a wallet and whatever surprise Christmas gift Las Vegas Coach sent me. Thing is they all arrived at my UPS center last night, but only 1 was due to be delivered today. I guess truck space is at a premium vs. driver time/mileage...so I wait...
Keep em all lol. I'm banned until at least April. I go to Vegas in April so I'm sure I'll cave there. Then comes the Mother's Day event and SAS so I'm taking it one month at a time. I think a lot of us are. I guess it'll give Coach some time to catch up on all the returns they have piling up.I have this fear that the other 3 arriving Monday will be keepers too as long as they are in good shape.

A good thing for me is I know I won't purchase a bag at full price. The Willis 18 is the only one.
I love the blue one as much or more as the red. I think the magnet situation might be because the red leather is stiffer. Just a thought.
Beautiful colorblock, and I love the charm on this!Tabby top handle in black/chalk/grey. Pebbled and smooth leather mix and either suede or micro sides, I can't tell lol but sides smell different than the micro lining...
Congratulations on your promotion!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. I also will buy from Coach experts that price their bags fairly and have bags in great condition.
