The clutch is nice enough but the satchel is thrilling. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bag-faceoff-keep-one-the-other-or-both#post-1482402 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 23:31:10 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1482402@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the satchel. It makes me sorry I threw away the 25 percent off Mother's Day coupon they sent me a couple days ago. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bag-faceoff-keep-one-the-other-or-both#post-1482294 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 18:44:29 +0000 Staysfit 1482294@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You absolutely gushed about the satchel in two posts already. I think you must love it. I say keep that one and pass on the silver clutch for now. IMO, I don't think there is enough difference to make it worth two metallic bags. If you want a clutch I think you can do better. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bag-faceoff-keep-one-the-other-or-both#post-1482213 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 15:23:21 +0000 Michelle 1482213@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm. Thanks for that description. I always envisioned just carrying it tucked under my arm like I always do with my day clutches + using the handle only when necessary. I'll try it out when I get home tonight. Appreciate the tip!<br />Your reply </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bag-faceoff-keep-one-the-other-or-both#post-1482208 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 15:18:07 +0000 Angie 1482208@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I found the clutch too big and unstructured to hold in the way it is intended - which is slipping your had through the front handle. Once my stuff went in it, the bag was heavy and slouchy, and I could not clasp its shape with my hand. I have another clutch in a similar design but it's smaller and very structured. It's very easy to clutch with the same style handle.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bag-faceoff-keep-one-the-other-or-both#post-1482192 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 14:39:52 +0000 Michelle 1482192@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Interesting! Angie, what happened when you put your things into the blush version? The bag strikes me as structured enough to hold my belongings very well. Curious to hear what happened to you.<br />Your reply </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bag-faceoff-keep-one-the-other-or-both#post-1482191 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 14:34:48 +0000 Angie 1482191@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Make sure you can hold the BR clutch when it's full of your stuff. I couldn't manage which is why the blush version isn't mine. If not - you are good to go.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bag-faceoff-keep-one-the-other-or-both#post-1482151 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 13:11:47 +0000 Michelle 1482151@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sterling, I don't think it will be impractical to carry. I enjoy day clutches in general, and this one does have a handle I can grab if the need arises.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bag-faceoff-keep-one-the-other-or-both#post-1482101 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 11:52:37 +0000 Anonymous 1482101@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My silvery bags are year round workhorses. I have a satchel that is my go-to bag and a larger tote for serious shopping, trips and to events that mean taking a book or notebook. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bag-faceoff-keep-one-the-other-or-both#post-1482100 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 11:45:17 +0000 Summer 1482100@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You seem to love both of them, Michelle, so, if they fit your budget, and they will be functional for you, I would keep both. &nbsp;Sorry to spend your money for you! &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bag-faceoff-keep-one-the-other-or-both#post-1482094 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 11:23:42 +0000 Anonymous 1482094@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh no. &nbsp;I love them both. &nbsp;I could see me keeping both of them. &nbsp;I am especially enamored with the shape and color of the Coach bag. &nbsp; </p> <p>Would it be hard to carry the Banana Republic bag? &nbsp;It seems to me that it might be awkward. &nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bag-faceoff-keep-one-the-other-or-both#post-1482073 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 10:08:15 +0000 Ledonna N. 1482073@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm an enabler I say keep both. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bag-faceoff-keep-one-the-other-or-both#post-1482068 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 09:38:04 +0000 Style Fan 1482068@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both are lovely but my first choice would be the Coach bag.&nbsp; I see the BR clutch as a second bag in a handbag capsule.</p> <p>I could see using the BR clutch year round.&nbsp; We could use some shine with our winters.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bag-faceoff-keep-one-the-other-or-both#post-1482056 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 06:33:19 +0000 Sal 1482056@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh that are both very nice...if picking just one I would go with the Coach rose gold....if I then had room in the budget I would get the silver too...they are quite different and I think could be worn all year. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bag-faceoff-keep-one-the-other-or-both#post-1482033 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 05:03:51 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1482033@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm going to be no help at all. I'd keep both. I like the little nude leather strap on the clutch--you can slip your hand through there as you carry it, right? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bag-faceoff-keep-one-the-other-or-both#post-1482012 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 03:54:17 +0000 rachylou 1482012@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I didn't realise the satchel was Coach. It inclines me more toward it, if you can't keep both. I've loved it in all your outfits I've seen it in. I find the silver clutch a little primitive - it doesn't seem to have the refinements of the satchel. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bag-faceoff-keep-one-the-other-or-both#post-1482011 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 03:49:59 +0000 Michelle 1482011@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joy, the BR clutch is really lovely. The leather is very soft, even with the shinier finish,, and it's extremely roomy. <br />I bought it on sale, thank goodness, so that helps. Am I right that this could be a multiseason bag depending on when and how it's worn??<br />Your reply </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bag-faceoff-keep-one-the-other-or-both#post-1482008 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 03:37:20 +0000 Anonymous 1482008@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A silvery day clutch has been eluding me for some time. Most are too small and formal. If the budget allows, I may have to get your BR find too.<br /> You already know that you love the Coach bag, so that's a definite keeper. The clutch may depend on your budget and what else you need for the season. At least that's the way I'm looking at it when thinking of ordering one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bag-faceoff-keep-one-the-other-or-both#post-1482002 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 03:27:19 +0000 Michelle 1482002@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joy, I found myself as an unexpected convert to day clutches this winter when I carried one from Club Monaco. The silver one is even more spacious than the one I used last season and has a little more functionality in the form of an inside pocket. So yes, I know for certain this would be a practical and viable option for me.<br />For reference, here's the one I carried in the winter.<br />Your reply </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bag-faceoff-keep-one-the-other-or-both#post-1482001 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 03:22:23 +0000 Anonymous 1482001@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's a tough one. The silver looks big enough and simply styed enough to serve as a dressy or day clutch. Will it hold everything you need to carry so that you can get to it easily? Will a clutch be difficult to manage with Reva? If the silver works for you, you should consider keeping both. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bag-faceoff-keep-one-the-other-or-both#post-1482000 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 03:15:33 +0000 Michelle 1482000@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>When I was updating my accessories earlier this spring, I was hell bent on finding a silver bag to carry me through the season. I'm not keen on changing my bags multiple times a week, though some variety is good, so this hypothetical silver piece would see regular service. <br />I checked out Banana Republic, saw a style I loved in blush, then was told they had the same version in silver available online (see below). Obviously I zipped right home and ordered it. :p<br />But then, not 24 hours later, I saw the Coach Prince Street Satchell in rose gold and fell hopelessly in love (it's below too). It obviously picked up on my amorous vibes and followed me home. <br />Now the BR envelope clutch has arrived...and I think I love it too. I can see it being a great alternative, and I suspect it has a bit of a dressier vibe than the satchell? Or not?<br />What would you do if you were me? Keep Coach, embrace Banana Republic, or make room in your heart/closet/wallet for both?<br />Your post </p>
