This is my first Coach bag, a gift from the US. It is perfect for work and daily use. Love the green patent leather straps and trims. I have bought a pair of shoes that fit perfectly to go with the bag.

Coach continues impressing me with the Audrey. The textured gold leather is so unique it looks like a million bucks when it is in fact USD898. What a bargain!! Not forgetting the generous size and the tone-on-tone brass details which make it super eye-catching of couse…

The Coach Madison collection is already the house’s best selling line now and while the Sabrina has ruled the sales, the new kid, Audrey might overule her anytime soon. There is in fact not much difference between both designs but minor tweaks such as changing the handles of the bag somehow makes Audrey edgier and more youthful yet still keeping the functionality and classic design we love of the Sabrina. Well, I have approved the Audrey as soon as I saw it last week. It comes in this beautiful Jade color among few and I think you should snatch it right away. Karl Lagerfeld at Chanel has made Jade hot for the upcoming season so why not jump on the trend wagon with a beautiful bag at USD398 only? Available at Coach stores worldwide or at Coach.com.

That is a long and mouthful name for a bag but it is pretty self-descriptive. The bag is available in both silver and gold textured leather. The New Cambridge is a functional daily bag with many zip compartments and this new version just upped the glam factor of what was previously considered a very nice daily bag. Naturally this also commands a price increase from USD468 (fabric version) / USD568 (full leather version) to USD798 now. Still, I think the price is pretty justifiable for the rare treatment of the leather for this bag. Do you like this?

Finally a new bag from Coach that i like! Like the best-selling Sabrina, the New Kira is a bag from work to play which can be both toted and convertible to a messenger. There are two separated zipped compartments which come handy to separate your stuff for easy search. The convertible messenger strap is braided leather, which is an interesting twist to normal strap but i am not sure how long it takes before it starts hurting one’s shoulder. The bag is available in brown, green and blue and made fully of shiny cowhide which is tough and thick. As usual, what we like about Coach is its value-for-money price which for this baby is at USD898. Tad pricier compared to Coach bags on average but the size of this bag is pretty big and you pay for the nice thick leather.

I said anything studded will be HUGE next season and believe me, no designer will want to be left out from this stud-studded business, including Coach. I have not made any entry on Coach for a while despite the fact that the brand launches a few new designs almost every month as the last one that has left a strong impression on me is still the Sabrina. The Sabrina has become a classic bag of Coach in its own right and probably one of the house’s best sellers for all the most obvious reasons. For Fall 2009, Coach reissued the Sabrina not only in leather of gorgeous new colors such as green, grey and mustard, it also studded the large Sabrina hence glamming it up a few notches making the elegant simple bag a bag Donatella Versace herself might approve. Finally, at USD798, i will have to highly recommend this bag again. Everything about this baby is just perfect!

Hi Purseholic Team,
I’d appreciate it if you can give me some suggestions on a great birthday gift for my bestie’s 30th .She loves buying and collecting clutches so I want to get her something a little bit extraordinary in design but within my budget of about SGD400 (USD260). With the coming of GSS (Great Spore Sale) I’m sure clutches won’t cost me that much right? I am no good at such thing so pls give me at least 2 recommendations. Oh, I have no problem buying it online too if it’s not sold in here. Thanks and appreciate the response!

Hi Denise
It is so sweet that you and your BFF still have the tradition of gift giving for bday. My first suggestion is no brainer. Coach wrislets are excellent deals, classic and inexpensive too. I would suggest get it in less boring colors such as this Bonnie Leather Large Wrislet in pink leather. The price is the States is USD128. I do not think it is available yet in Singapore either so get it at Coach.com via vPost. Another option would be this marked down blue leather clutch from Juicy Couture. The Onassis Clutch is now USD137, down from USD228 at eluxury.com. You could check whether they have it at the Juicy store at Ngee Ann City beforehand. Else, you could use vPost service too.
Hope this helps. Wish your BFF a happy bday from us too.
