This is not a sponsored post but hoping it will be sponsored. :giggles: When I was in US, someone msg me, asking me to check out the price of COACH bag in US. Huh? What coach, sofa ah? Knowing me, I was not in trend with the latest handbag brands as I donβt carry one. The only time when I do carry one is when I am attending a dinner function.
Anyway, this person got me very interested and I found out that the COACH bag is very popular in US and Hong Kong. It is almost like LV, a very expensive piece of accessories. Vien and I went to the factory outlet at Gilroy to take a look, we were disappointed because the bags were not very attractive. The signature was hidden on all the bags. *kiasu look* Hey you want to buy an expensive bag, make sure the brand is in view right.
As we were shopping at COSCO, I was surprised that there was a booth selling COACH bag there, mostly above US200. COSCO was the last place I would see any expensive bags for sale. I was surveying at the SFO and HKG airport, minimum was at least US230. Well, for me, I will not spend so much for a hand bag. At first, if the price is right, I want to get 1 for my aunt.
During CNY, I saw my aunt carrying a COACH, gee it is haunting me again. My aunt told me that my cousin got it for her from Bangkok. Ha! Imitation and it looks like one too.
Finally, I think I almost forgotten the word COACH. A week ago, someone msged me telling me there is a sale and all bags going for 75%. Another temptation, it is like COACH is not giving up on me. So I surfed in the COACH website and with the recommendation from my friend, came up with 2 choices within my budget. Which one do you like and guess which one I am going to buy?
Opps, the left one was my favourite as the design of the right one seems like more easy to be out-dated.
My sis told me a friend of us can get up to 30% off in COACH KL, i think maybe she was working there, but not sure the procedure or any limit or anything as i haven’t meet up that friend !
I have a suggestion: how about asking your hubby to read this post and then wait patiently for the bag on your birthday π
One more COACH haunt for ya… I carry a COACH purse, present from hubby π
I’d go with duckie’s suggestion π
I guess you will choose the left one, correct?
I like the right one as it’s more trendy.
My friend managed to buy at US150, but it’s a small handbag.
chooi peng: Nice to know a friend like that.
duckie: I am sure he will read it and give approval. I have already ordered. If he gets it, it will be more expensive. π
giddy tiger: Show me tomorrow yeah. I didnβt know you carry one. So do you want a handbag?
huisia: Why do you guess that I choose the left one? You know me so well. π

You’re getting a handbag for me? A COACH one? Thanks Michelle!
Giggy Tiger: π Not for free but 25% off.
The right one looks more hip but out of fashion very fast so the left one look more sensible…
Then again, I don’t think I want to splurge on bags anymore esp not fully leather type… not worth the $$$…hehehehe… my 2 sen.
My guess would be the LEFT 1 !!!
I like the left one too.. more classic.
The thing with Coach is, it’s very lasting.. really.
So you are buying? Through the web? You mean they do international shipping? The last I shopped at the Coach site, they don’t even accept international credit card.
Left one definitely. More classic and will last longer than the right one.
HEy, I did my search in Coach website too a while ago. My choice is COACH Signature Stripe Swing Pack (Pink). Love the website, it tells you how large is the bag too with your size carrying them. COOL! THe prize there is quite reasonable ler. Some is like USD 128. check out http://www.coach.com
Angeleyes: Right one for new generation ladies, me old generation, so chose left. π
Jessie, Shooi: Sorry no prize for getting it correct. π
Zara’s mama: Through a friend. I wonder do that take paypal money?
Allyfeel: That’s looks cool. However, pink not my color. Yeap, I think the coach site got an increase of traffic from me. π
Wow you ladies really have lots to say when it comes to handbag. Hrmm…shall blog more of it if any other brands haunt me.
