Has Coach finally bid adieu to the monogram look?

We can only hope. I have never made any bones about the fact that monogram bags especially in pastels, is tres tacky. (This of course doesn’t include my LV) It looks like Coach has finally listened.

The new look at Coach is focuses on classic and streamlined in bold elegant colors -leaving behind the tacky monogram look that has prevailed for the last 10 years.

The new leather bags, accessories, shoes, jewelry, eyewear, and outerwear mark a conscientious move forward, yet backward, as Coach tries to reclaim a more fashionable cliental by bringing back what first made them so popular.

While the silhouettes might be cleaner, the colors aren't: In bright oranges, purples, turquoises, and yellows, the new collection is definitely not your 2011 Coach camels, pastel pinks, or browns. The price-points have gotten an upgrade as well, with bags now selling between $178 to $1,000 and beyond.

Getting back to the basics

I have never been a huge fan of logo encrusted handbags. I don’t need to advertise the brand from 100 ft. Don’t even get me started on the pale pastel multi colored logo bags. Cute for the 15-20 yr olds. Rather like pigtails. You may think you look sexy and hot, but if your over 35 and wearing them in public…you don’t. Trust me on this one.

When I saw Coach brought back it’s classic Heritage line I was ecstatic! . Rich, luscious, high quality leather bags with nary a single C to be seen anywhere on it. They stayed with a neutral palette though that didn’t inspire me to buy. Now Coach must be feeling a little froggy because the latest line is a cornucopia of bold bright colors begging you to buy one of each.
