Wolly Mammoth hang tag from online sale and a poorly listed Rocket box program card case from eBay (got it for $10!!). Also can I say it is so nice when stuff is shipped from a store and presented so nicely.

Congrats! I'm so glad you got your Chalk 25. I think it is the most perfect size and I agree, just adorable!! I absolutely love mine. Enjoy!
Thanks musiclover! It is my first Rogue with the brass hardware and I really like it. Overall, this colour combo is just striking in person. I kept taking the bag out today to admire it (did I mention I have a purse cupboard in my office at work...)
Yes, it appears there are at least a few Canadian Coachies in here who get it! CBSA assessed $50 duty plus the taxes (at least I am in Alberta, so that is only 5%!) Ah, to be at par again. Oh well, it is what it is.
I must have missed it, but what is your new bag? I totally understand the plight though - there are other bags I want but I have bought way too much so far this year so I need to sit on my hands until at least closer to the end of this year!
Hi RayKay, how lucky you are to have a purse cupboard at work! That would be fun!
You're my neighbour. Our taxes are hefty here in British Columbia as you know. I find it hard to buy things from the Coach FOS (even though I want to) because once the exchange is completed, plus possible duty and shipping
it's more than I can take. Well, more than my bank balance can take, anyways. I have a beautiful brand new LV Speedy 30 B Damier Ebene which I want to start using but waiting for it not to be quite so hot outside. I've put the chalk Rogue 25 on my list for a light coloured summer bag which is actually more of a need than a want as most of my bags are either black, brown or navy. That's how I'm justifying it.

Ah, I love (parts of) BC. Taxes not included of course. My brother and his hubby lived for years on and still have a house on the island (though both are now posted on the other coast!), my own husband used to live on the island, we married on the island, we are going to visit island later this month, I have relatives in/around Vancouver, plus you have spectacular scuba diving along the coast!
I thought I had seen you with a new Speedy (to celebrate 30th work anniversary, right?) but I did not want to assume. I think Chalk would be a great addition to those colours! This is my first white bag - I was unsure but it just works. I used to stick mostly to bags in browns, greys, blacks....but Coach has such wonderful and tempting colours, including ones that still manage to be neutral somehow (like Butterscotch!)
I saw that listing on ebay! I thought about bidding but I'm not hot on the rocket design and I didn't really need a card case haha. Lucky you for snagging it, though! I also bought two woolly hangtags during the sale. The mammoth was the only one I was interested in of the four Coach beasts, and I got the woolly hangtag when it was $18, and then when it got marked down to $15, I thought "why not get a backup?" So I've got two now lol. I like the woolly design so much I impulsively bought the wristlet, even though it wasn't one sale. But I'd use it as a wallet and would use it every day. It's scheduled to arrive today so we'll see.
Oh I'm jealous, that's a great price! I just picked up the rocket card case for $22 at Dillard. It's really nice leather and I love all the slip pockets. I figured it would be perfect to hold all my player's club cards when I go to Vegas
I think you're in for some spectacular weather if you are coming over to the coast soon! I'm an island girl myself (but living on the mainland now) so I'm delighted to hear you're coming back to spend some holiday time. I still go home regularly and love it there. I remember that you enjoy diving so will that be part of your time here for this trip? I've been to Banff and Calgary a few times to see our friends in Alberta. I've recently come to love Canmore as well!
Yes, that's me with the Speedy B, a gift to myself. I knew I wanted something I would use for work and the Speedy is a great silhouette for me.
I've only had one white bag, but it had a bad encounter with a pen so I've not purchased one since. I have my cream based Dooney and Burke Disney retro Satchel but not every occasion calls for Minnie and Mickey (although as I write this I think that every occasion SHOULD call for those two cuties). Anyhow, I love your chalk Rogue 25 (and purchasing one would make a great addition to my own handbag collection).
Now, if I can just quickly get over the $595 US sticker shock once we convert it to CAN funds, it's going to be alright.
My first ever 1941 item, the Rogue satchel in chalk. i noticed that almost all of the ladies here opted to get the burgundy, black or even the pricier butterscotch (equally my favorite along with chalk). i personally love the chalk with the burgundy handles, i find it very classy yet relaxed, like it's not too serious business-like. im in love with the quality. the construction, the lining, the leather, theyre all amazing especially for the price. i've always wanted coach to thrive just because,.. but the past years(before stuart), never ever considered getting a bag from them due to the direction they were taking. i guess a massively discounted bag was a good way to test the waters lol

Love it! I have the Oxblood and the Black Rogue Satchels (they were my first 1941 items!) but if I had not been able to find a secondhand Rogue 25 in Chalk I was definitely eyeing up a Chalk satchel, too! I agree the chalk with the oxblood handles is a striking combination.
Enjoy, and that goes for your pretty new KS, too!

I've never given the satchel a 2nd look in the other colors but it looks great in chalk. I may need to reconsider [emoji848]
hehe
for me, it was the first color along with butterscotch that i really had my eyes on. i find the black satchel a little too rugged for my personal style. the burgundy wasnt a choice for me cause im only a neautrals bag kinda girl. nevertheless both are very beautiful bag. i really still want the butterscotch though
yes the chalk with the burgundy handles just make the bag a lot better. if it had been accented with black instead, i wouldnt have bought it. the version in rogue regular was my first favorite 1941 item. hehe i just love this satchel, its very classy but casual at the same time, i love how it has a bit of slouch and isnt overly stiff like an actual doctors bag.
thanks! i love the KS as well, very pretty and well made.
