Black Coach Soho Signature Purse
Soho – district in Manhattan noted for its old warehouses converted into restaurants, galleries and theaters.
These astounding classic mini bags, wallets or purses are perfect for the theater, art gallery observing, or dining out. To name a Coach line Soho is genius! It is like the fine wine of handbags or accessories. It is classic by design.
The Mini Soho is the hallmark of a woman’s delicate elegance and fortitude. That is why the Soho is so special. This line is the best of the best. As in vintage, it comes from the finest line of Coach Purses. It is the best of the past complimenting the trends of today. It represents the quality of past techniques and designs coupled with the diversity of today.
I have a black Signature Coach with the soft leather trim and silver buckles Soho. I love this bag. This is the bag I use daily. It compliments everything in my closet. It is perfect for all occasions, whether a trip to the grocery store, work or an evening out, you really cannot go wrong with Coach signature Soho wallet.
She did not become a classic because she is cheap; she became a classic because she comes from an exceptionally fine line of Coach. The Soho line is the best of the best. This line is special because its design will continue to outlast any other. Speaking of outlasting; my Soho gets tossed around, beat up and even withstands my two year old daughter.
The strap is small enough to be hand held without looking like a dingle berry but long enough to be held under your arm incase you need a free hand. My Soho is a zipper top handbag, but I also like the flip top design Soho in tweed brown, blue and black. It is more modern vintage than my Soho because it captures the essence of the late 70’s and early 80’s.
Coach is no dummy, old trends always come back. Today the 80’s are hot, but Coach has put a classic spin on the Boom era. Today we know that hot pink is not a color that should be worn, it is a highlighter. The Coach Soho also comes in twill. In other words, tweed was originally called twill because it was an unfinished woolen fabric woven into a twill pattern instead of a plain pattern. Why would you want plain? While the Soho line and hobo design is simple, it is defiantly not plain. Who else can design a mini purse in tweed blue and make it look hot?
In past eras tweed was a commodity because of its moisture-resistance and durability but soon became obsolete because the production and cost could not keep up with the worlds growing demands and industry boom. So they switched to materials such as polyester and cotton. Lucky for us Coach knows that quality is better than quantity and tweed as well as their other Signature materials will last. Maybe you haven’t noticed that a couch, not to be confused with Coach, made with tweed have withstood the years better than the cheap cost effective ones. This is what sets the Coach apart from the rest.
Whatever your flavor: red, green, white, pink, brown, black, small, large, mini bags, wallets or purses, Coach has got it all. It is a little more expensive, but you know it will last. I mean last; not just as in it will not fall apart, but last as in; whatever the trend happens to be, you know that the Soho line and hobo design will always be in.
The Bag Soho reminds me of Breakfast at Tiffany’s. Audrey Hepburn is the icon of vintage style. She is the fine wine of early Hollywood traditions and a legend not just by talent but by beauty and grace, a face that will live forever. Like the Coach Soho, a fine wine of early trends that became a legend not just by craftsmanship but by the beauty and grace they bring to any woman. Maybe a Soho won’t make you look like Audrey Hepburn, but it sure will make you feel like her.

Coach Fall Patchwork Carly
Let me introduce you to Carly. Carly is larger than life! She is lightweight and trim. Dare I say she is bitchin’! You did know that the first handbag designed for Coach was prompted by a brown paper shopping bag? Since 1962 the inspiration for Coach’s handbags, purses and totes has not changed much.
It seems now more then ever, we need functionality as well as practicality from a purse that is large enough for us to cautiously conceal away what we do not want to leave behind. Besides the average everyday things such as a cell phone, wallet and keys, there are some things that we need occasionally but don’t want to flaunt, or want to keep hidden. So what does a girl want but not want to show?
She secretly longs for Mr. Handsome but doesn’t want to unmask to him that she has already invited herself to spend the night with him on his cozy bed. I mean you could have an overnight bag already waiting in your car just in case. Then when he invites you to stay with him for the evening, you run out to your car to fetch your overnight bag but that is just tacky isn’t it? Sort of disrupts the moment don’t you know?
Not Carly! She can keep a secret about the necessities and unmentionables that are hidden in a woman’s purse so Mr. Handsome doesn’t assume you are trying to move in. The mysteries of a woman are held securely zipped inside the Large Carly Leather Signature purse, handbag or tote.
Can you imagine yourself on a date with Mr. Handsome using a tote that doesn’t zip and accidentally disclosing your smutty intentions? Oops, your bag tips over and there it is for the world to see, exposing your nasty little fantasies Don’t be cheap, be discrete or you will send Mr. Handsome running to Mr. Guys-guy all because you didn’t want to spend a little extra money on a Coach. We don’t always know what life will bring so being prepared is being practical without looking like Allison Reynolds (Ally Sheedy) from The Breakfast Club.
Seriously, there are two ways to mess around. You can clean up the mess around the floor after having the personal items come spilling out of your bag, or you and Mr. Handsome can spend Sunday cleaning up the mess around bedroom. I would much rather clean the up the mess around Mr. Handsome’s bedroom.
Although having a purse that serves a greater need, the Large Carly Signature by Coach comes in a multiformity of different canvases. My particular favorites are the traditional Large Coach Carly Authentic Khaki/Black Purse, and the Time honored Denim Carly’s with patent trim because of its lightweight and reliable signature fabric with crinkle patent leather trim and size.
The Signature Carly Larges are made with either Coach’s patent leather or canvas materials ranging from holiday designs arranged with browns, oranges, reds and black, to summer tones in white, pink and blue as well as tradition colors.
Carly is not just a Coach, she’s a lady!
