I dont wear a lot of bright color. Mostly neutrals or black. So I figured I could get away with a bright bag. Do you think these are tacky or cute? I really do like them, but I am normally a very plain person, so Im afraid they might be too outlandish. And Im wondering if the turqouise one might be too small. Not that I need a super large bag. And also if you think they would last a couple of years. My husband is treating me for no reason, but said I better use it for at least a couple of seasons lol. I dont blame him.
Or any other suggestions for a nice bag?


I think this a big hint that he is getting tired of me dressing like a 12 yr old skater boy.

I like the turquoise one the best. The others just have too much hardware on them for me, personally. I don't own any Coach bags so I can't comment on the wear.

I like the 1st and 2nd ones most. I have one just like the 2nd one, except mine's fabric with the logo all over it (also from the Legacy collection). It's plenty roomy, and not small at all. The Legacy bags do have a lot of hardware though, and it'll weigh down the bag. Just a FYI. Definitely go for the 1st of 2nd one though. :)

I think the turquoise one is really cute too. The other two are nice but they are more businessy type bags where the 2nd one would look good with both casual and formal outfits.

I really like the black one the best but I think the turquoise one is really nice for spring and summer coming up.
Let us know which one you end up getting.


I know I shouldn't have browsed the site because now I want this one....

Thanks for the feedback! I am thinking that maybe I should stick with just a black. More likely for me to use for the next couple of years. I might get tired of carrying around a turqouise purse. So I still like the first one.

Other ones I am thinking about:

Pretty much the same as the turquoise one, just black. This is the one my hub recommended.

Or this one:

I guess I like hardware. :P

I seriously would not know which one of those to pick if it came down to it.

I like the one your husband picked out.

I like the first and third in the original post a LOT. I've seen ones that look a lot like the third one though at F21 and that would bother me.

I love the second one, but I have trouble spending so much money on a 'fun' bag that's not as versatile.

And I love the domed bag.

I LOVEEE the first one you posted. It's gorgeous! It will be in style for years and years, too.

Thanks again for all the feedback.

I'm still really liking the first one from the first post, the third one from my second post, and the 1st one from the second post, in that order.

One more question. Do you think any of these bags scream Coach? Definitely one of the reasons I don't want one of their logo printed bags. Every single person I see has a Coach bag, and I don't want to feel like I am a sheep. But I can't help it if they make bags I like. I would like a nice purse that will last me more than 6 months, it takes just about that long to find a purse that I do like.

Now I'll just need to update my wardrobe to work with whatever new bag I get ;)

From your first post,

I like the first one more in the Brass/camel color than the black.

The 2nd bag...I didn't love the turquoise....I LOVE LOVE LOVE it in chocolate!!

The 3rd bag, LOVE it in Brass/Chocolate.

I personally didn't see any ones in the 2nd post that made me do a backflip.

So, sounds like I'm of no help.:D

I totally understand your branding concern. I don't think any of them scream Coach - they just scream "quality leather satchel", which is a good thing.

lol That works for me.

Yeah, I really do like them in the brown and camel tones as well. But I really need a black purse. I have way too many brown and neutral toned purses.

I have a brown leather Coach purse, and I like that it just looks like a really nice, upscale leather bag. If one were to look closely, the Coach tag is on the front...but I like that you can't see it from a mile away. I've gotten a lot of compliments on my bag.

I love the 3rd one in particular in the color brass/chocolate! Very pretty and so stylish looking. The second one looks great in chocolate and the first one in black, although it looks very dark blue on my screen, which I like better.:D
