Coach bag

Thoughts on the new spring bags from Coach? I have a fondness for the Suede Pocket Satchel with the blue trim, though I tend to stay away from suede since it tends to look dirty real fast. I am a big fan of pockets and this bag delivers in that department.
I've seen the Optic Signature Suede Gallery Tote in a number of summer fashion guides and an example of the bright colors in fashion now. Personally I think the Coach "C" thing has passed, simply making the "C's" bigger doesn't change that. To bad since the colors are nice.
Jury is also out on the Chevron hobo. I like the fact that is is unique, but still has a simple design. But I'm just not a fan of the mustard/orange combo. If it was something in a cool green/blue combo, I might consider it.
Comments
Hmm... I get what you mean by mustard yellow. Nevertheless, I still really like the bag. I think the pattern just aids the bag to be shaped baggy hobo like. And I suppose any escentric colors match with the bohemian look. Besides, this bag will probably match most daytime outfits, but one must remember to match this bad with simple outfits. cheers.

As my sister would no doubt point out, the color scheme of the Chevron makes it look very much like a bag well-suited for Mindy McConnell. Or Rhoda. Of course, that's my fashion sensibility, so I'm loving it.

Don't Hobos carry their belongings wrapped in red polka dot handkerchiefs tied at the end of a stick? Most hobos I've talked to while ridin' the rails wouldn't consider such a small bag useful.
