Your new Coach: a mini-reveal thread!

[momtok]

A relative sent me a $100 Coach gift card yesterday. I found this beauty at the outlet for $99 today. I love the suede side panels and subtle python embossed accents. Here's my exotic trim leather Minetta in stone:

That leather looks really nice. It looks like the really soft version that the Madison line used, especially before Madison moved to mff. (Actually, I don't know Minetta's "heritage", so if that's the line it's actually from then I realize I'm stating the obvious. But my point is that you can *see* it from the picture alone.)

Shearling and plaid are in.

See, now I like that plaid a *lot* in the actual wool format. I guess it's from the wool texture ... much better than merely printed on the leather. Artistic pic too.

Found this beauty yesterday

Is that a Cooper? Those are/were very well liked. I think the embossing works so much better on the matte leather too ... I mean, much better than on the patent.

Very pretty -- really liking the suede side panels! Enjoy! Also, sending you good thoughts and vibes, dear CN😀

Thank you! I appreciate the positive thoughts.

Nice, very classy!

Thank you!

Good eye. It was originally a Madison style. The leather feels nice and smells good (it's one of the nicest MFF leather bags I've ever seen), but it was made in June of this year. Is that too recent to be made of left over FP leather?

Twins! I love Coopers! I got mine last Christmas for a great price on FOS during one of the reserve sales. What did you get yours for if you don't mind me asking.

Thank You, twinnie!
Mine was $179. I know it's not the best price but I don't think I'd find it for cheaper. Can I ask how much was it on FOS?

Great find!

Thank You!

It's a regular Cooper. I have always liked the shape of Cooper and embossed leather in Ecru looks sharp imo. I love Bleecker leather.

I had to go look at my receipt (yes I sill have it, I keep the receipts for every bag I buy). I got it for $106.50 before tax.

Hi Ladies, I'm relatively new here but loving coach and growing my collection. I got this adorable Central Satchel in Oxblood from Macy's on super sale yesterday. Down from $295 to $165 and then after giftcards, I only paid $50! I had been stalking it for a little while and finally went to the store yesterday and it was the only one. It is the perfect size for me and I love the crossbody strap.

I would love to see a mod shot of this bag! I almost bought this yesterday online at Macy's with my 30% code, it would have been just about $150. I couldn't find much about it though in real pics to judge size. I read one review that said the leather is soft and wonderful, and quality of bag like older coach. I was too lazy to go to my Macy's and see if they even have this bag. Then I saw the style with rivets and like that one too, but this Oxblood color is so pretty on this bag. Feel free to share more photos, this is the first I've seen this Central satchel on the forum.

Recently I celebrated a personal goal with the Turnlock Tote in navy. I really like how sturdy it is. I have a taxi tote but it's way too loose to house my laptop comfortably the way the Turnlock Tote does. The only thing I wish Coach would introduce is a key D ring inside the bags like MK. I didn't realize it, but there is a deep pocket when you unlock the Turnlock, which might be OK for thin papers and files if you don't want to stretch it out.

Very nice! and yes, i agree a D ring would be nice inside the totes.

Ok, here are a few pictures I just took tonight. Pardon my gym clothes! The leather is thick and substantial and I can tell that she will get more slouchy over time as she's used. It definitely reminds me of the old school coach leather. I was debating between this and the prairie and the prairie seemed a little more flimsy (?) maybe. I also LOVE the oxblood color. I feel like it can go with brown or black. I read a review on this forum I think that the oxblood was a little dull and I will admit that she does look like she could use a little moisturizer, but I'm hoping that that will shine her right up! I haven't seen this anywhere other than Macy's in this color. Even the coach website doesn't show the small version without the whiplash lacing on the seams, and while Zappos has the central satchel they aren't showing this color. I feel like I lucked out!
