Coach summer 08' collection
Filed under: Handbags, Accessories
Ah, yes. Coach. Our middle school supplier of leather handbags and adorable wristlets. We temporarily fell out of love with the brand once they began covering practically everything they created in cheesy logos, but all has been forgiven with their most recent collection.Still churning out totes and satchels with big and bold "C's" on them, Coach has made a legitimate effort to make chic and classic leather goods for all those not wanting to appear as if they were walking advertisement for the brand.
For summer, the Bleecker collection features cross-body bags and totes in rich jeweled-tones, metallics, patents and patchwork.
Our favorite piece, the patent leather flap, comes in beautiful plum and can easily be transitioned into fall with our wardrobe. Even better, it only costs $298, which is a very reasonable price when the handbags are as well-made as these.

Coach has been on the up-and-up for several season's now. I think it's great that people (especially the fashion set) are finally taking notice. Last season I bought the Limited Edition Patent Francine Satchel in that same delicious color, plum, and I get the same reaction from people when I tell them it's Coach: "Really?!" As if they can't believe it (especially coming from me--a bona fide fashion fanatic).
Their logo merchandise, which I'm not exactly a fan of either, is obviously their bread-and-butter, but stay tuned...I have a feeling a few more seasons is all it's going to take for Coach to make it back on the fashionista map!
