My All Time Favourites..

( this is taken from my post in the bag-aholics blogspot )


..is the CARLY!!

Carly is THE most famously associated to Coach Brand.

This is Coach classic handbag design and no other brand dare to create similar look to it. Carly marks the the beginning of Coach era. It was at that moment, like, a must have for all Coach addict!

And after owning two, I honestly believe that you can never go wrong with Carly.
It matches perfectly with every single outfit, at any point of time and functions!

I bought my very 1st Carly at Coach KLCC and it was my dear hubby who pointed it out as she sat quietly on the top shelf, with 50% discount tag during the Coach Clearance 2008! And it was love at first sight!

This is my Coach Large Parchment Leather Carly style #10616, with Mahogany leather trim and Brass hardware.
And check out the baby blue satin lining.


Of course I couldn't just stop there.. I mean, everything needs a partner, right? hehe..
So, I went back to visit all the Coach boutiques but they only have the Coach Signature Carly and no more leather..
I'm not so much into siggy prints, hence, I moved to Ebay and found the perfect pair!

Ta-daa!! Here's my Coach Large Black Leather Carly style #10616, with Black leather trim and Brass hardware.
And with it's shimmering bronze satin lining.

As usual, accessories are my bags best buddies..
so, here are the carlys gorgeously dressed up for the day..


Just incase you didn't notice, I was actually using the same ponytail scarf.
This scarf has several patterns on it and it is different front and back.. absolutely creative isn't it? hehe..

My Coach Ergo Collection

( this is taken from my post in the bag-aholics blogspot )

Hi. My name is Jay. I am a 32 year old mommy to two beautiful cheeky boys.. and I am a self proclaimed Coach-addict! Hahaha.. Yes! I love coach handbags and in this 1st entry of my Coach handbags, I would to share with you my Coach Ergo Collection.

In my humble opinion, I think this must be the most lightweight leather collection ever made by human kind. Yand you can tell that it is lightweight even by the looks of it.

First up is my Coach Large Tan Pleated Ergo Leather Tote, style #12247, followed by Coach Medium White Pleated Ergo Leather Tote style #12240 and lastly the Coach Rose Pleated Framed Ergo Leather Satchel style #12248. All are gorgeously lined with Coach Tattersall sateen fabric lining.
Ok, so you may think that what's so special about this Ergo anyways? It looks boring, there's no hardware accessories, no bling bling.. but just pure plain looking leather bag.. Not even a Coach writing on it (except for on the hangtag and inside tattersal lining and the style creed)..

Well, that's what accessories are all about my dear! Just like a woman, handbags too need accessories to complete the look, if u know what i mean *wink*..and here are pics of my bags taken as i accessorised it to use accordingly throughout the week.
So you see, the Ergos practically have endless looks! With the right kind of accessories, you can transform it to suit any attire, formal and casual. No, you do not need to buy only Coach accessories to use on it. U can mix it up with others, even personal stuffs. For instance, the brown silk scarf on the ergo was actually my mom's scarf! I tried to use the Coach brown-patchwork ponytail but it just didn't match well. See for yourself:
The tips is not to be afraid to mix and match. Till next episode, have fun with your handbags and don't forget to accessorize!
