Fringe. What do you think about when you hear the word “fringe”? For me, I think about my mom’s suede fringe jacket from her free-lovin’ adolescence. I remember borrowing it for Hippie-Day for my high school’s Pep Week. It was soft, supple, and a rich chestnut brown. I wore ripped up bell-bottom jeans and I remember all of my friends spent the day drawing pictures all ...

Mandy Moore sure is a fan of Coach! We’ve seen her all around town with her Ergos, but here’s yet another Coach handbag from Mandy’s closet: the Bleeker Duffle. I suspect Ms. Moore has her Coach bags customized because I don’t believe the strap on the Bleeker Duffle is that short, and I’ve never seen this particular bag in that hide (the large scales tell me it might be alligator), though it could be a past-season Coach. ...
A natural touch gives the Coach Bleecker Floral Clutch Wristlet an earthy, relaxed vibe. The beige canvas trim is a great complement to the off white leather, and the flower appliqués are playful without being childish. Proving it’s possible to have some fun this spring even without an explosion of color, this versatile bag hits the right note. Available for $178 at Coach.
The Coach Madeline Zebra Tote is a fun little handbag, if you’re into the animal prints and are tired of leopard. I love leopard, but zebra is a nice way to change up animal prints. Contrary to popular belief, zebra print goes with a lot, and the nice chocolate brown color that Coach did for the Madeline is neutral enough to wear year round. The Madeline Zebra Tote retails for $998 at coach.com.
Oh, what were they thinking when they made this bag? If the signature isn’t hard enough to work with (although, as Coach has proved, it can work at times), they now thought it would be a good idea to add some Pepto Bismol pink stripes to it and call it a bag. While I plenty understand the beauty of the color pink, I don’t understand why anyone would want to pair it with a brown Coach logo. The handbag ...
Lace is undoubtedly the theme of the Miss Davenporte for Coach collection. Whether it’s lining the interior, overlaying the exterior or just making a guest appearance on a little coin purse, it definitely plays a major part in distancing the handbags from the regular Coach line. That’s evident especially on the simple Leather Tote Bag. It’s extra large, so it’s perfect for the incurable pack rat who can never carry enough. It’s also great for professionals who need something that ...
Similar to last year’s green and brown Scarf Print Tote by Coach, the new version of the classic Coach Signature Stripe bag pairs brass and blue together for a playful, fresh look. The simple shape makes it an instant winner, but you’ll need to be sure of your love for blue if you plan to carry this around. It’s a great handbag for those grab-and-go occasions when your uniform of choice is jeans and a tee, but it’s ...
Love the bag, hate the outfit. Why is it stars always feel compelled to wear luxurious designer handbags with their frumpy gym wear and flip-flops? It only rarely works. Unfortunately for Mandy Moore (who I think is adorable), hers is not one of the ones that work, primarily because the pumpkin-red hue of her tasteful Coach Ergo crocodile purse contrasts too much with her baggy black sweats. Sometimes you just have to save the good stuff for the right ...

It’s no secret that bright, brazen colors rule on the runways and the streets this season. Hues like brilliant blue and pleasant plum are trendy but promise to mean something even two or three years from now. That means you can feel safe buying a piece like this Mini Frame Leather Handbag from the Miss Davenporte for Coach collection and rest assured that it won’t expire anytime soon. It might help that these purses measure on the small side. ...
Ladies and gents, meet one of the most unfortunate looking purses ever. It takes a moment to really take in all that’s wrong with this Coach Lily Denim Satchel. Once it sinks in, there’s a whole lot to complain about. The dark denim and tan combination is just awful, and though on other versions of Lily those brass turnlock closures don’t look so bad, here they really just make things worse. Denim lovers and Coach signature fans may ...
