Coach is not the edgiest bag house per se, but they certainly have their collective finger on the pulse of what women will buy, and their Spring 2009 line is getting raves from fashion addicts and blogs.
There is the ultra-feminine Parker series, which includes a Nappa leather shoulder bag and satchel in strong pastel colors. The Bonnie series has a vintage appeal with today’s desirable features of a cross-body bag and a tote for nighttime. And throughout the Coach spring collection, feminine zippers, straps and handles make for playful details.
