What a beautiful haul! I love this cornflower color and silver hardware is also my preferred choice. Enjoy!

Thx, Iamminda! I don't know if this is how you feel, but sometimes Coach totally mismatches their hardware with the leather exterior. Other times they match perfectly. As much as I don't care for the gold or light gold hardware, there are some leather hues that the gold is perfect for. Offhand, I don't remember which colors, but I'd know it if I see it. :giggle:

Yes!! Absolutely!! And Navy/Dark Blue. And Bright Reds.

We should make a small list of the colors we think the Gold hardware is perfect for. I'll list them here as I see them, and you could let me know if you agree. (No pressure, lol, but I think it would be fun).

Great idea. Maybe you can search to see if a thread exists discussing color and hardware. If not, it may be a fun discussion for everyone. I also like gunmetal hardware btw. Ok, off to bed. G Night K :)

Today was a great UPS arrival day! Got my FOS stuff PLUS my two F&F summer sale goodies.

The first pic is the total haul all of all six pieces. On the LEFT is the Glovetanned 21 Wristlet With Exotic Leather Link and the Slim Larger Trifold Wallet -- both are Beechwood color. They were FP but I used the 40% F&F.

On the RIGHT is the FOS Lenox Satchel with matching Cosmetic bag in Cornflower, and the Star Bag Charm and Emoji Round Coin Purse.

The last three pics are just different angles of the Lenox.

I have to tell you, that Lenox Satchel is THE NICEST FOS item I've gotten so far! First of all, the Cornflower color with Silver hardware is perfect. The leather is so soft (not smooth, but soft) and squishy. If you hate leather squishing, do not get this bag! I LOVE IT! I love the roominess and there WILL be slouching, which I also like. The leather looks very rich and classy to me, and you have the option of extending the interior's capacity by detaching the side foldovers (is that the correct term?). Plus it has the nice detachable shoulder strap.

I just received it and it's still got the paper stuffing in it, but I'm ready to try it immediately! I wish the hardware on the other existing colors (Chalk and a Pink?) were also silver, instead of gold, so I could buy one in every existing color -- not sure how many colors Coach made.

What a gorgeous satchel!! Does anyone else own one or more Lenox satchels, and if so, please tell me how you like it.

I do like light gold/gold hardware (my pale but warm skintones look best with yellow or rose gold, but I actually wear gold, rose gold, and platinum interchangeably, mix metals, etc so I don't follow any "rules" that way except that I do not look good in silver or rhodium plated white gold), but it has to be on warmer colours/tones (earthy browns, deep greens, rich burgundy reds). I am thrown off a rich reddish luggage brown if it has silver hardware.

On cool colours/tones I prefer silver (so your cornflower blue, blue-ish grays, summery pastels, many brights). Sometimes...just sometimes...a light gold will be okay as light gold tends to shift a bit more.

I find I am okay with gunmetal on anything; "black copper" or whatever to me is also fine on most. Brass also works for me on most things just because it is classic. They might not be my first choices for some bags (like the luggage brown mentioned above) but these won't cause me to turn a bag down, either!

I really like the Lennox too, been using it about a week. Midnight blue and really smushy!

Snagged this @ the men's outlet today. With the sale, it came down to $154! I've wanted a lg tote for those fall/winter days & I think this will look great as I typically wear basic solid sweaters & jeans.
I only went into look for some small item, like the rip & repair pouch & came out with this. I love the exterior pocket & heavily pebbled leather.

My purchases from the F&F sale. I will be doing quite a bit of traveling soon so I bought some items that I thought would go well in my carry on tote:

Space Rexy wristlet, Steggy passport, Rexy hangtag and two garden floral cosmetic pouches.
The wristlet is amazing and it has the antique nickel hardware! The cosmetic pouches are very nice and are lined with some kind of material that resembles leather (pleather?) rather than fabric, which I think will make it easier to keep them clean inside. IMG_1498867141.666173.jpg
I also bought two small Nomads, one in burgundy and one in butterscotch. The burgundy is going back and the butterscotch will be here Monday. I'm hoping I'll love the color and it will be a keeper.
