I have a crush on an $800 Coach handbag

admin — Tue, 17 Jan 2012 23:40:04 +0000

I have shared this before, but my first ever handbag was a Coach bag. From that day forward I was hooked on bags and it clearly changed my life going forward, as I get to talk about the accessories I love every day. While many designers have come in and out of my collection, Coach will always have a special place in my heart. Over the past few years, Coach has churned out higher quality and priced items season after season. The true Coachies (a name given to Coach bag lovers by our loyal Coach PurseForum members) have grown with the brand and found the collections that they love most.

For $800, brands like Alexander Wang and Louis Vuitton can be purchased, but right now I am crushing on the Coach Pinnacle Leather Allie.

The leather is sure to be richly textured and the smooth and pebbled combination will give a nice tonal effect. The reason this shoulder bag stands out so much is because of its custom buckles, exotic framing detail, and the leather belting. The bag is quite spacious, 18″ x 7″ x 15″ and has a nice shoulder drop of 11.5″. I see this bag working well for the young professional to the empty-nest mother.

I really like how elegant this bag looks, perfect for those who love the brand but are not looking for a monogrammed bag. But my question comes in about the price. I am not one for sticker-shock but I do realize that $800 is high when many people think about Coach. Is this something that you appreciate as they continue to expand or does it turn you off from the brand? Buy through Bloomingdale’s for $798.

The famous duo who started off on one of my favorite sitcoms, Full House, is continuing to take the world by storm. The Olsens’ highly talked-about fashion line, The Row, has given us bags to talk about because of their beautiful designs and exorbitant prices.

The latest creation from The Row packs a hefty price tag punch in a compact bag, 5″ height x 7″ width x 2.25″ depth. The Row Twin Mini Messenger Bag features contrasting pattern ostrich leather on either side. The shoulder strap is adjustable and long, and the interior has smooth leather lining and an internal zip pocket. The price is a whopping $4,700 via Barneys NY.

Alexander Wang’s Backpack is actually quite cool

Alexander Wang Marti Convertible Backpack, $850 via ShopBop

Can I start off by telling you all that I’ve not been a big fan of the whole backpack in place of a handbag movement. It simply is not my style and even in school I always carried messenger bags (aside from the years where I took every possible book with me at all times and you could tip me over with the slightest nudge). But this morning at the Oscar de la Renta Pre-Fall 2012 show, I ran into fellow blogger friend, Rachel of The Greyest Ghost, who helped change my opinion on wearing backpacks.

We were chatting after the show and both Vlad and I realized she had quite the nifty camera bag. But this wasn’t an ordinary camera bag, instead she opted to use the Alexander Wang Marti Convertible Backpack as her camera bag.

And that got me thinking. This backpack can be worn traditionally, or you can change it up and carry it as a shoulder bag or by double handles which leaves you with many uses. I am always preaching about using a bag that is both chic and functional, and this Alexander Wang bag truly does that.

Unlike many other Alexander Wang bags, the Marti Backpack is not overly heavy. There are plenty of functionality aspects, including 4 zip pockets at the sides, detachable backpack straps, and a detachable shoulder strap. Totally hip baby bag anyone? Measurements are 15″H x 11″L x 5″D and price is $850 via ShopBop.
