Wow, just wow! This bag is beautiful! 💕 Leather lining 🙌 looks really luxe!
Oh thank you! Its quite the find 😊
Hi there!! Absolutely huge fan of Coach's quality. I'm not into most of thier designs but when they get it right for me, i have to have it. I'm also American though, so Coach was my very 1st designer brand i got into. I hate when ppl even have the audacity to group them with kate spade or micheal kors bc coach's quality ( not outlet coach) is massively better. That tag is different vs regular coach tags. It's a 1941 tag which means the bag is the top of line quality for coach. It differentiates the bag from the main line and quality of the leather. Beautiful bag, it's next on my list. I usually save up and buy luxury designer bags, but for mid tiered price bags--- Coach is the best.
Oh thanks for the comment and insight 🙂
I have this exact bag and then brought the smaller version in the black with gold hardware. I love it it gives me Celine vibes.
Oh cool!
Its interesting… how different regions have different colourways. I only saw the small black with silver hardware in person in Hawaii
They finally released this bag/size in Australia but the colours I’ve seen haven’t been ideal :/
Do you find that the top of your bag has creasing on the leather from opening and closing it. On the coach website in the video example it looks like the leather wrinkles everytime it pulls back?
@@melissaward2293 it has very subtle wrinkles when the flap is open and flat and in line w the back of the bag.. yes, it smooths out everytime you close it for me. I think it will eventually show naturally wrinkling w natural bending?
The wrinkley grains show up more on the bent straps from what I can see with my limited use at the top D ring area.
Fresh from the store, the leather appears very smooth.
Whats bothering me more is i think, am totally guessing, that when I bend the flap open, I think i can see where the animal got scratched when alive?? Theres weird lines under the paint, that are slightly raised. Shrugsssss.
Also,
Its foil stamped with “genuine full grain leather” which is confusing because “genuine” can mean “real/ animal” and/or it can mean “not the best possible layer” type of animal leather in the leather-world 😆
I don’t think this will be a precious bag to be baby’d…. i need convince myself to just use it freely!
Exactly this! I've been lusting after the celine box bag for years but couldn't bring myself to spend ££££ / I've been looking for a good enough mid luxe dupe & this is it ! Just ordered the red in Black Friday sale ! ❤ I love the dual strap length effect
@@shrinkshy enjoy it 😊😊😊
New sub here! 🥰🥰 Congrats on your new bag!!! It’s beautiful! Love the color!! Their Madison’s bags won me over! Im not really a fan either, but these bags have surprised me but I love the squishy leather and such!!! I show mine on Candi’s Sweet Love For LV! Glad I found your channel! Love supporting others who are on here doing the same thing as I am! 💕💕💕💕
Thank you Candi 😊🌸
I don’t really know what I’m doing on youtube !!but I’m here 😝 lol
@@Mya.atPlay girl I understand! I started back last November and I’m still winging each and every one of them! You are doing amazing! 💕💕💕
Wow! Elegant bag! Love your outfit too! Oh I wish you didn't throw the tag. I want it!! 😄😍
🙏 aww thank you! ☺️
If you want to pay for the postage cost, I can send you the coach tag ✉️ ✈️ 🏷 😊
Hi, I want the tag 1941 🙏
Just saw your video and the bag looks great. Following you now.
Aww thank you!! 🙏🙏😊😊
I love the look and quality of this bag.. However, I'm concerned that it may be too structured and heavy for me.. How are you liking it so far?
Its been ok. It is quite structured.
Its actually a lot of thick layers of leather, which may feel like a waste of space.
I realised after buying this that i prefer textured leather over smooth leather, which is a personal preference. The craftmenship is good not excellent, i can nikpik lol theres 1 misalignment thing on the top corner of the back pocket and I’ve seen it on more in store.
I wouldn’t say its heavy but its not light… but u can’t put too much in it so it doesn’t get heavy-heavy. I wouldn’t recommend the smaller one even tho its cute. The leather layers n thickness is too much for the small imo
You never truly know if a bag is right for u or not until u try it yourself unfortunately
😊💗
Bag ppl need a guide i think, like if u don’t like it 80-90%+ then don’t get it or something lol
@@Mya.atPlay Thanks for sharing.. I definitely know what you mean and prefer pebbled leather for this reason (I have 4 Cassie bags😅). I guess I'm safe from purchasing this bag for now, unless I can find a good deal on it in the future 😉
Looks beautiful - do you find the bag heavy? Thanks.
In my opinion, it’s surprisingly not heavy for a full leather bag
Is this something you’d consider? Let me know if you have any questions!

I'm not sure whether I want the shoulder or crossbody but I do want to get one. The color you have is called grey but it looks taupe to me. The smaller version has a nice rust color option at the moment. Otherwise, the black option is really the only other color that I'm considering.
@@nmernst the official colour name according to Coach is Dark Stone… but stones come in different colours! Hahaha
IMO, its a grey brown instead of a brown grey… so slightly more brown. I was most drawn to this colour.
This size has at least 9 colours according to my internet browsing but this colour suits me well.
The full leather inside and out makes it maybe a little too thick overall for the small crossbody I think, because it has all the same features such as same slip pockets, just shrunken.
The full leather feels more harmonious with the bigger size… This size feels ladylike to me 😊
If you can, try them both on, put things into it in store, imagine how you use it and select the best for you.
I don’t wear tan so the rust wouldn’t work with my wardrobe, so if you wear warm colours or tans a lot, maybe the rust could work for you. I haven’t seen this Dark Stone colour in the small.
Good luck and enjoy, Nicole!
@@Mya.atPlay interesting on your site it says dark stone. I'd say that's pretty accurate. On the US site it says grey, which doesn't really seem right. Oh that's such a good point about the leather. Yes I could get away with wearing rust as a neutral in my wardrobe but am totally drawn to the color you chose as well. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
Love this bag or bags I have here today
How they look on the outside to see
And how much room and beauty of them
They have within to carry my things around
Paired with boots I wear on season today
They go quite nicely with the boots I wear
They are beautiful and let me unzip a boot
To show I haven't any socks or nylons on
😂 🧦
Ah it’s the same style as the Alie shoulder bag
I just looked it up, it is similar, I hadn’t seen the Alie before~
