Of the pictures and descriptions I'd read, I could hardly wait 'til I saved enough to purchase one, and love the pink bag shown here. I received two Coach purses as gifts, one in December 2012 and one in February 2013. The one I'm using is looking quite ratty and I've rarely used the second one as the handles started to come apart after 1 months use... rather disappointed.
I honestly don't know what all the hype is about these bags. My friend has so many of them and budgets so she can get a new one every couple of months. I can't see paying hundreds of dollars on a bag.
Coach is getting WAY too played out in my opinion. I used to love it over 10 years ago when it was still harder to find, when it was made in the USA and it focused on simple leather styles.
Since it's shifted its target market to teens and soccer moms (sorry, no offense), it's been changing its emphasis to logo'ed CC canvas type bags that are so not my style.
I still think Coach is good value and a good entry point for those trying to get into the semi-designer bag market, but I no longer have any desire to own them and stopped carrying them a few years ago. If price is an issue still, check out their outlets - very affordable Coach there.
