Coach Francine Purse

Coach Francine Purse

I have been intrigued by the exotic creations being seen on Coach purses lately. We first had Eva Longoria with a Python Miranda then Rebecca Romijn with an Ostrich Lily. But it is not just their exotics that are catching attention. Coach purses are a fan favorite. In fact, most women start out buying a Coach purse when they break into the designer handbag realm. I know I did. And while my collection has expanded, there are still Coach purses that I see and love. The new line is the Coach Francine line, which is just in time for spring with bright colors on patent leather. Sure there is the obligatory brown and white, but I am intrigued by the eye popping teal and slight shimmer to the metallic. Even better is that a purple will be available April 22nd online. The Patent Leather Francine sports a bold color with a great design, offering a removable strap and an outside pocket with turn lock closure. The shape resembles a bowler bag. This design is great for a hand-held burst of color and flair. The patent leather Francine costs $798 via Coach while the metallic leather costs $898 via Coach.

    I’ve seen it IRL and it’s super cute. The turquoise is the nicest color…very fresh and modern.

    I went to Coach this weekend to ogle the vintage leather Miranda in Brass/blue (no, not SS color but sooo beautiful). But it is so heavy!!! Maybe the alt materials are lighter. I didn’t heft the patent shades.

    The hardware depreciates the overall look of this bag.

    The teal Francine bag really catches my eye.

    The only problem is that it catches my eye EVERYWHERE. It’s in the local Coach store window, it’s on display at all of the area Macy’s it’s the first thing you see when you walk into the Coach store in the mall.

    Maybe I’m cheap, but if I’m going to pay more than $500 for a bag in such a striking color, I don’t want to see the bag every time I turn around.

    i, too, started out with a coach bag (or five) and still love to visit the store or website. it feels like returning to your old high school years later. i can still respect some of their designs each season, but i am less inclined to purchase something that is the “featured” bag for spring.

    In my Option, It’s a beautiful bag. Not a bad price in general. But it is for a coach. The coach customer may not spend that on a bag. If it were me…I would rather buy a Vuitton.

    I cannot bring myself to pay more than $500 for a Coach bag. Every high school kid carries Coach nowadays. I started out with Coach as well but nowadays it does not feel all that ‘designer’. I’m 26 and if I want a ‘young & hip’ bag I would rather check out Marc by Marc Jacobs where the prices are always below $600!
    Even more so, I would rather add another $500-$700 and buy a Miu Miu or YSL or Hogan or Marc Jacobs and so on.

    Its great to see Coach stepping up and producing very gorgeous looking bags! :razz: But then, I’ll be thinking twice before I buy a Coach purse above $300. Well, I haven’t bought a Coach since two years ago when I found out that their bags are made in China. But very nice design nonetheless!!! :wink:

    Coach has gorgeous bags. It’s a high-end brand and will always be. If Posh Beckham had that bag, everybody and their momma would run out and buy one. Who know…she probably has it.

    :shock: The bag IS heavy! Even the model above looks like her heart is not into the bag but she poses nevertheless. It looks like she’s about to buckle under the weight. In this picture, she’s a mess.

    Anyway, I tried lifting the bag in the store and it nearly took my breath away. Just thinking about lugging this thing around town for a day would make me feel angry. :mad:

    No, even when empty, this bag is way too much to lift onto my bony shoulders.

    I love the color. I haven’t seen the bag yet, but from what others are saying about the weight just wouldn’t do for me. Trying to lug this bag around while chasing 3 kids around with my coach diaper bag on my shoulder, I can just see me falling out and my kids tearing up. Ha!Ha!

    Im sorry, but when has coach ever been on sale, I mean has anyone ever remember coach back in 06 ever placing the handbags on 50% 40% racks I mean I feel coach died as soon as they started placing their lines on sale. And theyre shoes have really gone down hill Coach is making air force one design type shoes. I used to like this lable, I think this was the last bag I did enjoy, Now I feel their lines are too alike and too easy to get. I enjoy vintage, Like scribble, katelyn sneakers, madison 06 lines, Bleeker, jewlery locket signature circle with cubic zicornia..
