Coach Resort Turnlock Tote - Designer Handbag & Purse Chat.. The Bag Forum

VivaLaJuicy · February 25th, 2008, 07:09 PM

While doing my daily net browsing, I spotted this newbie on the Coach website, the Resort Turn lock Tote. From a distance on the new items page, this specific bag caught my attention. Why? Well, I was curious; I had to know what type of adornments Coach placed on this one bag of theirs. Upon enlarging the page and reviewing the description of the tote, I learned that the body of the bag is made out of metallic leather (nice), legacy striped fabric lining (sweet), a 13 ¾ inch length by a 14 ½ inch height (big), a $698 price tag (nay), and a whole lot of multicolored brass turn lock closures applied onto the body of the bag (shocked

). I believe adding substances onto an item can really enhance its appearance, but then again, too much application can really hurt an item as well. Would you call this brass application a clever or an unwise decision by Coach? Is mixing metals stylish? Personally, I would prefer a solid metallic leather Coach bag over this one bag. Second of all, I can’t really think of what I would wear with this bag! So what do you all think? Yay or Nay?

I do like the mix of the metals just NOT the bag.

Yuck Yuck! I really don't like this bag. I do like the occasional turnlock closure, but an army of them? No way. Not for me.
