vintage coach

This is one of my favorite dresses because it's sooooo easy to wear.
It's traveled across several states with me and I've never had to iron it.
And every time I wear it I pair it with a different belt.
But this post is really not about the dress. It's about the BAG!!!
My mom's super old school Coach bag to be exact :)
It's so soft and so perfect and so goes with everything. My mom better get a lock on her closet...

wearing: urban outfitters dress, thrifted belt, dolce vita boots, coach bag
worn to: dinner and drinks at Mua

P.S I'm typing and sippin'...please excuse any typos and/or incoherence ;)
Also I finally got a Facebook page for the blog. Please LIKE ME HERE!

    Aww, that color looks FANTASTIC on you! I really love the soft purple. And that vintage bag is awesome. I wish my mom didn't give away all of her old, but amazing items. The other day, I was thinking about buying a pair of velvet leggings and then I realized that my mom used to have THREE. Made me sad thinking about having to buy a new pair when my mom's old ones would have been perfect. Anyhoo, Happy Friday to you!

    I love anything vintage. That bag really compliments the dress...even gives it a vintage look. As always, you look astonishing.

    I'm not really a big fan of Coach (however, I like their leather items, more than the monogram stuff).. but your vintage Coach bag is marvelous!!! :)

    xx Love & Aloha

    thanks everyone!

    sharonlei-the monogram stuff is not for me either, but they have really improved their other line.

    pancakeSTACKER-i'm grateful for this bag, but heartbroken that she gave away her D&B bags.

    I love that knit dress, looks great on you! Anything with a 70's feel, I usually love. That bag is a treasure too and they do get better with age:)) BTW, love your blog, new follower here. Hope to have you as one also;)
