I CAVED

Suhse — Mon, 13 Jun 2016 21:06:00 GMT

I spent the week end in Portland OR, with family. My Sister, Niece-in-law, and I just had 😉To check out the Coach retail sale, at the Town Center. Sigh!!

I came away, with this Crosby Carryall, in exotic embossed leather. And, somehow, the matching wallet, jumped out of the case and came home, too. The bag wax $495 originally on sale for $247.50 and the wallet, was $278, on sale for $139.

I was never much of a fan of the snake look, but, in the last year or so, I've just gotten more into them. Just what I need, expand my tastes, so, I'll be tempted by more bags!

Great looking bag and wallet. Every now and then one has to treat themselves.

I like the color!

I think it's a beauty. My co shoppers liked it, too, but, they both said, not something, they would buy. There were others styles they liked better, although, 😀I was the only one who bought, at the retail store.

Later, my Sister and I went to the Outlets at Woodburn and my Sister found a gorgeous Black Madison, at the Coach Outlet. A transfer from retail. Great looking bag and a really nice price.

I keep saying it, but, 🤓I really am bag shopped out, for the foreseeable future. At least I better be!

I'm like you, not especially loving any reptile look, but the blues in your bag are just exceptional and pretty~! There have been a couple I've given a second look to (GILI) but yours is really beautiful~!!

Enjoy in great health!!

Love a snake bag - every girl has to have one

@Suhse the Coach sale was awesome this weekend. You did good. Congrats she is a beauty - great wallet.

Expanding taste or otherwise known as a good purpose to shop.

@Suhse OMG they are both gorgeous. I am a big fan of Coach. I myself like the exotic's and the colors are just beautiful. I caved also with the sale and ordered the denim croc swagger & matching wallet. I should get them in a few days. Enjoy your new treasures.

I like the Swagger style a lot. They had some beautiful bags in the Swagger style, at the Portland store, but, even on sale, they were considerably pricier.

I almost bought a wallet, in the Swagger style, a blue that would have coordinated, perfectly, with the bag, but, in the end, I went matchy. 🙃

Enjoy your bag, when it arrives. They're so pretty!

The robot, I found at the Outlet, we visited. He had just come in, as a retail transfer, so a pretty good price. I couldn't resist him!

Really? I haven't visited my outlets in a while. I'll have to go. I am so jealous!

The Outlets's are pretty hit and miss, but they had some good deals this last time.

I'm also seeing an improvement, in quality, in their made for the Outlet bags. They had a line, I think it's called Americana, that was beautiful. One bag was a quilted leather, cream color, pearlescent look, with navy trim. I loved it.

The Woodburn Outlet, had remodeled, fairly recently. They did a great job. It looked more like a retail store. So much easier to shop in.
