Not technically a new Coach bag, but I did make myself a new storage area. After outgrowing the closet I decided to put up these shelves for my favorite bags and keep the closet for overflow. It's like my own little mini boutique :smile: also stole a tie rack from hubby to hold my straps and wristlets. Here it is in regular light and with the lights off :smile:
Happy Sunday everyone!!
You have a wonderful collection and display !! enjoy
 
Beautiful bags, all, and the fancy shelving! I got my fall pre-sale confirmation email, and hopefully it is shipping out tomorrow. The brick red Rogue 25, I'm excited. :biggrin:

Brick red arrived. It has a small dent in the handle from the plastic torpedo from the price tag (on the right side in the picture). :doh: :shocked: I've also been touching the leather and it smelled pretty plasticy. The color is definitely "brick" even though some pictures I've seen on the internet makes it look brighter (may be optimization settings on phone cameras). I think I might just return it and not try for a new one. It is a pretty color though. Maybe if it is around at sales or goes to the outlets.

and the retail therapy continues....

It actually is a nice color combo. I wasn't sure if the multiple colors would work, or if I'd like it, the sides are wine, and the zipper leather is oxblood. Tonally matches versus that green amazon, with canyon sides (and cameras make it look almost orange sometimes) and another color. In person, it does work. Not sure if it is the leather from the batch for this bag, and another batch might be better. We'll see, the fall collection seems to have so many things in it ....

I'm so lost here! How do I go about purchasing things pre-sale? How do you even see what's available beforehand to purchase? That red is gorgeous! I'm sorry it isn't going to work out for you.

Most SAs will text pictures of upcoming "newness." You can order before they are available in-store or online through what they call the backorder system. I used to do this a lot, but seeing things I paid full price (or if my SA was lucky during PCE I could backorder with the discount) not sell out and end up 40-50% off during SAS (or 60-70% off at FOS) has taught me to be patient.

That's definitely good advice. But those SAs are smart sharing those pics and folks can order to receive in advance, but they are all full-price. And I guess it might be fine if Coach actually sells out of the item for good, but I see the webpages of the prices when items reached the outlet and it kind of makes you want to cry. But then I never can find really nice retail items at the outlet because ours isn't the greatest and I'm sure it gets picked clean by folks who live nearby. And I don't snag any finds on the outlet website. So....

There is a really cute mini rogue bag charm for pre-sale in the dark green/canyon color. I had hoped it would also maybe be available in the brick red, but it may not come in any other color. But, I'm annoyed by Coach right now when I called about a second item I had ordered and received. The rep on the phone consulted with her manager and the response was really kind of off-putting. So I sent two emails to two different mailboxes at coach and hopefully someone else will reach out regarding my concerns for that item.

Thank you for this info. I'll try and make friends with an SA lol. If any of you get a heads up on presale for the studio bag please post here! I haven't stopped thinking about it since I saw the runway show. But I do agree about how disheartening it is to see stuff go on sale!!

here's a pic of the Studio in case anyone is curious and didn't see it yet. Many colors and two different sizes were featured. Isn't is adorable!?!

I love the strap! I'm not feeling the pushlock though.
