Coach Bag Is Art: Style

coach bag

Coach Bag. When I am searching for a bag, it is a fairly thought out process. I have to visit with it and picture myself carrying it in various situations and only once I am sure, will I go and make the purchase.  I rarely buy a new bag on the spur of the moment, unless I see one that calls out my name and then all of my rules go out the window. Yes, that sometimes happens, maybe more often than I would like to admit. Even though I’ve purchased the slouchy styles and some of them have been great, I generally gravitate to structured ones. Whether it be a bowling bag, a doctor’s bag or a simple envelope clutch, it has to have nice clean lines which fit all of my necessities.

A bag is more than just a carryall, it also needs to have a classic style and to be of great quality. I tend to fall in love with all of my pieces and I want to be able to keep my bags forever since each one is a piece of art in its own right. It has to stand alone and be noticed on the street, or become a part of a fabulous outfit as a supporting player in my day.

Recently I realized that there was a type of a bag missing from my collection. I didn’t have a proper daytime to evening purse. It’s the bag that you cannot stuff full of every single thing that you own, the one that looks best streamlined.  I have no idea how I could have missed such a vital component of my wardrobe, so I was thrilled to receive this beautiful Coach bag. Wonderfully lined in a navy satin with chain detailing, it fits all of my criteria perfectly. I will be able to carry it to a business meeting or to a day of gallery visits and then it can also be an ideal companion for a night out. For a more elegant dinner, the straps can be neatly tucked in and then I have an over-sized clutch. This is a two-in-one purse which I can’t wait to take on the town.

Do you own a Coach bag and love it?

 

 

The perfect bag for me:

  1. Beautiful bag. I love clutches with panache.

  2. That’s the perfect day-to-evening LBB (little black bag)!
    I like having a classic black bag for everyday wear and an embellished clutch for nights out.

  3. I currently need a new black bag. I’ve been looking at the rebecca minkoff mini mac, and the mini 5 zip.

  4. Can I have more than just one favourite? LOL!! When I’m on the hunt for a new bag, which is often, I too like to take my time and make sure the bag works for me. This is usually done mostly online because a lot of the bags I want aren’t available over here.
    I love your new bag it’s a great colour and size… I can definitely see it being a perfect day to night bag.

    xo, Jackie

  7. Love the clutch! I’m with you on this one: structured bags are the best! Love them with a bit of edge and glam to them like a gold chain, or a bit of bling 😉 I love big bags for day time and super fancy funky clutches for evening. Oh and also, totally adore messenger bags! Great post xx

  15. love this bag, it is so versatile and practical! and you’re so right, it’s often better to purchase the smaller bags because you won’t be able to stuff them and strain your back!!
