Ok, I now get why some of you love Coach bags. How cute are they?  I personally like the Soho Twill ones (pink and red one). Very cute indeed! 
Ok, I have found several more that I like but they're $400! How can anyone afford them. WOW!

I have that one and I looooooove it. They are a huge investment.. but if you get classic styles they seriously last forever.
oh and tina I love those two designs as well.. i'm trying to save up for one!

It's funny...when I was looking I was looking for something that was practical that I coul use foever. Then I changes my mine and went for fun at the last minute. I LOVE the pastel colors in the Soho twill collection...but I figure they won't be in style for long....
the pink and red one rocks!
So hubby and I have a deal. If i can keep he grocery bill under $100 a week I get the leftover money. Guess what I'm saving for? A new purse...AND a new exercise videoe. i figure it'll take me a year to get a coahc purse tho

I have only one coach bag at the moment, as everything else is in storage at my parents' house!! For this bag, I wanted something classic and decidedly non-girly, as I am enough of a girl already and don't need the accoutrements to shout it out! I also wanted something refined, and opted for leather because it'll last forever and even on its last day not look banged up.
I actually dress very conservatively, but expensive. I stick to blacks, grays, and dark blue and green because of my blonde hair and ghost like pale skin.  Also because I'm tall too... if I wear a color like red, it is a LOT OF RED. What's that big red thing coming toward us? Oh it's just nelly.

The red and pink one is so me! But I would never spend more than $65 on a purse. Nope.
You get yourself a swanky new purse though! It will look stunning on you!

I like all of your choices...though like you I have NOTHING to go with a red purse. And I get you on the dream outfit for the yellow purse...why don't I have that outfit? That would look so cute!
There's this shop in the town near my parents house that has the coolest purses for around £20-30. They rock...I could spend a fortune there...it's my favourite shop for girly presents. I got my SIL a bright red bag from there once and it looks so cool on her.

I love the Banana republic clutch- very SJP- A circular skirt, fitted cardigan buttoned up and pearls to go with your hair in a bun would compelte the look
I also love the white Banana republic one but the colour would be a disaster for me
The Prada I am not so hot on
and i haven't had a chance to look at the others
My Friend got an AMAZING yellow leather bag in Marks and Spencer lately, I'll check online to see if its still on the site and post a pic.

Ebay

I would not advise buying purses on ebay.. coach at least. I've bought two on ebay that claimed to be "GENUINE REAL COACH PURSES" both were fakes! So I ended up paying about 80 bucks (alot cheaper for real coach) on fakes that weren't even close to being real. I actually returned one of them and the seller lied and said I never returned it. I went through ebay, my credit card company and the post office, but in the end I was out 80 dollars and didnt' even have the fake coach purse I sent back to him to show for it.
I prob wouldnt' advise it. I know others have bought great stuff on ebay, but I think you have to be careful about buying designer items.. they are often fake.

I'm going to buy a purse while I'm in the UK, probably Wearhouse. I love some of their stuff so much!!! I have one wearhouse purse that always gets compliments. I'm not used to girls asking me where I get my stuff, probably because I was in school so long and dressed like a schlub. All that is changing!!

This purple one is my favorite!! But I'm a purple freak, so maybe that has something to do with it!! I really wanted purple when I bought mine but didn't see any that were the right size! I love my pink Brighton purse!! Its very girly, which isn't really like me, but I always get compliments on it!

Hey,
Just thought I'd jump in here...have you ever looked at Roots purses? I love them, they're a little out of my price range but I think they're just gorgeous, and I'm a huge Roots fan (at least I can afford the clothes )
Here are some links: http://www.roots-direct.com/Product_Detail.aspx?styleID=18010670&dptid=7&catid=123&subcatid=&stylecolor=18010670_1002

A bit of Canadian style!
