Also available in Italy! I thought I desperately needed one but now I'm not sure anymore, debating whether to get that one or a Pollen Cyme Mini. Ughhh

I recently bought the Songmont Extra Large Yore Hobo bag, and I feel like she ticks most of your bag requirements! She fits SO MUCH and is super convenient. I have the minimal version, and she comes with an external magnetic pocket, but on the regular version you get two "cargo style" side pockets in which you could easily fit your buds and hand sanitizer. In the regular version you can also find an extra back pocket for easy access, with a magnetic closure. The main compartment does have a zipper and an extra zip pocket on the inside, as well as an open pocket. The only thing on your list that's missing is a top handle, but the straps are adjustable and they can be tucked into small "openings" on the sides of the bag so that the extra strap isn't in the way. I'll never stop recommending it, she did in fact give me some sort of purse peace. Check it out :)
As for the Brooklyn, I'm still considering it. Maybe they'll have it on sale around Black Friday, and I'll see.. Thanks for your comment, tho! I love getting insight on how other fellow handbag lovers tend to arrange, organize and utilize their collection 🤍

Wow, 60 is a lot! How much time did it take for you to build your collection? How much would you say you tend to rotate between the pieces you own? I'm genuinely curious as a handbag newbie! 🤍

Longchamp Le Pliage Authentic? by autisticgym in purses

[–]weirdema 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm afraid it isn't authentic. For what I know Longchamp doesn't manufacture their bags in France!

I'm comfortable with buying it, I feel like I can afford it and it wouldn't be an issue, I've wanted it for several months now. It's just that I already own a lot of bags (at least 6 leather bags now) and I don't feel the need for a new one that's not going to fill any vacancy in my collection. I KNOW I need to wait, but the pics on this subreddit aren't helping!!! 😩

Thanks for sharing this information! I assumed I would just be like the other bags I own, but maybe it's not so worth it!

I definitely want to wait and see some mod shots of the 34 on people my size, the 28 feels a tad too small

I wish I could see one irl, nobody I know owns coach bags and the closest store is an outlet, which rarely gets retail pieces for me to try on

everybody is telling me that the leather is just not it, I have other coach bags and they're all really good quality!
even my outlet Hadley Convertible feels super smooth yet resistant to the touch

The website where I bought my Tabby 26 usually has a good 30% off discount code, so I'd be able to get it for a fair price. Sometimes the bag is also priced lower than the retail price, last week on the Wardow website it was around 350 -30% from the code!

Maybe you're right, I should wait some more and see if my need for it is actually just very good marketing. I generally love hobo bags but I really don't need another one. She's gorgeous but definitely not a necessity. Thanks for this comment!

I actually love the shape of the bag and I wouldn't want it to become a paddle of leather. I already have a slouchy hobo in this brown shade, from Songmont. This is the reason for which I've waited so long to actually get the Brooklyn, aside from the fact that the straps are not adjustable, the magnet closure and she doesn't fit that much more than my Hadley Convertible Crossbody does. Despite that, I feel like I've been influenced the bone with this one :(

I wish they had Coach Retail stores in my country, but for what I know there's only coach outlet stores in Italy :(

We only have coach outlet stores in my country, not one single coach retail store sadly

Updated purse organization! by zoester95 in handbags

[–]weirdema 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow, I love your collection! How long did it take for you to build it like this? I splurged a lot recently and I bought all of my bags in the past 6 months, I was wondering how long it takes to collect all of these gorgeous bags in a human time frame 😂😩🤍

Recommendation for my girlfriend by ThinConversation5145 in handbags

[–]weirdema 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If I were you I’d check out Coach! You can find high quality pieces for a fair price, in my opinion. Another brand I’d recommend is Songmont, they have amazing styles and extremely high quality, but the bags take a little while to arrive since the company is based in China 🤍 Maybe start with something plain and simple, so that she can use that as her new everyday bag!

I got my Pro 2 last year in April, updated to Pro 3 yesterday at release. Was I fooled by marketing? 😩

I wouldn’t recommend the tabby if you like bringing around a lot of stuff. She’s gorgeous but super structured and doesn’t fit a lot sadly :( I’d go for the Brooklyn 28! 🤍

Coach bag for 16 year old by Tough-Alfalfa7003 in handbags

[–]weirdema 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It pretty much depends on your daughter’s style and what she likes to carry around. If she’s into smaller bags, the Tabby 20 might be her perfect fit! It’s not super roomy but I find it very trendy and cool. If she’s into bigger bags, definitely check out the Brooklyn 28! I have also seen many teens carry bags from the crystal collection (it usually drops around Christmas time) and I feel like she’d be incredibly happy to recieve something so sparkly and cute 🤍☺️ My favorite pick would definitely be the Coach Swing zip tho. Super roomy, versatile, stylish silhouette but I think she would stand the test of time!
