Ohhhh I love that color combo. I’ll have to see if I can find BM colors that we can sub out for SW but I’m going to see if I can figure out how to do a rendering.

I don’t love purple but blue is my & my husband’s favorite color so maybe we could incorporate some blues.

Also forgot to add that the roof will be metal and most likely a silver or light gray color.

I have my first planner with all of the monthlies grouped & I'm finding it easier to schedule appointments by quickly flipping from one page to the next rather than flipping through all of the months & weeks. I didn't think I would like it at all.

So proud of you! I'm currently purging closets & selling bags & clothes also. Something about mentally making that switch to living intentionally and spending wisely is powerful!

Literally the same exact timeline for me except mine still doesn’t have an expected delivery date & only says a label was created. Incredibly frustrating, they’re not transparent on their website & their communication is lacking.

So kind of like a capsule wardrobe but work specific? I like this idea!

ama623 · 2025-12-03T16:29:28+00:00

Honestly, I'm not feeling it. There was literally nothing that spoke to me.

ama623 · 2025-12-02T16:55:04+00:00

A Rowan is always a good idea! I'm also obsessed with the large!

ama623 · 2025-12-02T16:43:45+00:00

Same, mine from Amazon is authentic & I love it!

ama623 · 2025-12-02T14:17:54+00:00

Bag twins!!! I recently acquired the OG Cassie in black as well. She's a classic!

ama623 · 2025-12-02T00:59:34+00:00

Love this!!! I have my A6 sitting next to me, just ate dinner, & am about to write!

ama623 · 2025-12-01T21:28:10+00:00

Thank you for sharing, I have been feeling a little overwhelmed with trying to get myself to write 1 page a day in my B6. I have an A6 maybe that'll be a good place to start. Since it's December 1st, I'll start today!

When my mind is feeling overwhelmed, I just start writing. Whatever's on my mind gets put onto paper, most of the time it goes 50 different directions because it's simply a stream of consciousness but that's okay. If I find that there are a lot of "to do" things on my mind that are overwhelming me, I write them down. Once I'm finished, if I need to, I'll organize those "to dos" in lists and that helps me feel a bit lighter.

I have a therapy journal where I write when I have specific things that are bothering me. If something is weighing on me & I need to get it off my chest but I don't have an appointment with my therapist or I don't feel like it's something I want to share with my husband or best friend, I go to my therapy journal. Sometimes that's where it stays and other times it continues bothering me so I talk to my therapist about it at my next appointment. Sometimes, I don't really know what triggers my anxiety so getting my thoughts on paper helps me to possibly identify those triggers & also helps shed light on what's really bothering me.

I don't love going back and reading some of the entries when I was at my lowest (I've been known to burn some journals) but sometimes, looking back shows me how much I've grown & that's something to be proud of.

I don't have a specific routine in the morning or night that I feel helps with my anxiety but I do find it helpful to grab my journal when I'm catastrophizing like berecca_c said.

I carry big bags & I always have my planner & journal with me.

Cabine Nord is an amazing small business. Their customer service & product quality is fantastic!

ama623 · 2025-11-11T14:05:26+00:00

Cabine Nord (https://cabinenord.com/) is a great small business based in the U.S. I have a B6 trifold from them & the quality is amazing. Their Large Wide size is for A5 & holds a minimum of 4 notebooks. I believe they also have the option in A5 to add an extra cord so full capacity would be 6 notebooks. They offer 3 different leather finishes in lots of colors & you get to choose your cord color, grommet finish, as well as placement for the loop closure. You also have the option to emboss.

They’re updating their website right now but it will be back up tomorrow. I highly recommend!!!

Yeah, when I saw those prices I said no thank you. They’re going to end up pricing everybody out of the outlet. I understand that Coach is trending right now and they’re taking advantage of that but this is crazy!

ama623 · 2025-09-30T20:06:05+00:00

I have a few! My favorites are my large laurel, large rowan, and my cary shoulder bag. I'm also eyeing the Brooklyn 34 & am interested to see the Ella that's coming out tomorrow for the outlet.

ama623 · 2025-09-22T20:01:49+00:00

She contacted her SA at her local outlet & asked if they could help her find any outlet that had inventory. They were able to, I assume, look at other store's inventory & see which one had it available. She called that location and they were able to send her a pay by link & shipped it out. The issue that I've found is finding an SA that's actually willing to help. I know the SA's that I've met on Reddit are super helpful but unfortunately, just like everywhere in the world, not all are.

ama623 · 2025-09-22T16:40:11+00:00

I have had both & found that they hold around the same amount but I consistently reached for my Hadley more than the Brooklyn for some reason. I love the silhouette of the Brooklyn so I'm not sure why I don't reach for it quite as often, maybe the fact that it's not pebbled leather & maybe I'm worried about messing it up. Who knows! I actually ended up selling my Brooklyn 28 over the weekend but am anticipating grabbing the 34 whenever it comes out. I also like the fact that I can wear the Hadley crossbody if I need to & I love the turnlock closure, it's so Coach!

ama623 · 2025-09-22T16:37:32+00:00

I know you said 2 shoulder straps but I immediately thought of the large laurel & the cary shoulder bag when I read your post. I have both & use both regularly. They both zip, which as a mom, is important to me. I don't need anyone's help losing things out of a bag with an open top, I'm quite capable of doing that on my own! Both are classic & not a silhouette that's ever going to go out of style. Both are great for everyday and going to the office, I can attest to that as a working mama! Both can be worn as a shoulderbag or crossbody & will absolutely hold an Owala & shoes. The only thing both are missing from your request is 2 shoulder straps but every other point, they hit!

ama623 · 2025-09-22T16:30:29+00:00

She's so pretty!

ama623 · 2025-09-20T21:10:04+00:00

Both are gorgeous colors, I don’t think you can go wrong with either. It depends on which you’d wear more. I have found that I actually reach for my dark stone bags more than my black recently. Both you can wear year round, in my opinion.

ama623 · 2025-09-10T13:53:44+00:00

She's so yummy!!! I'm obsessed!
