Why my Coach Peyton Handbag Is My Favorite Bag of All!

posted on 28 June 2011 | posted in Fashion


I own at least 10 handbags from different designers - from red evening bags to satchels! Some are brand name, well known, expensive handbags, others are just cute and practical bags I may have picked up at the local Wal-Mart or Target. There is one bag I have that stands out from the rest, it's made by my favorite and go-to designer brand for handbags or purses in general. It's my Peyton Op/Art hobo style handbag made by Coach. This bag is beautifully made, as all Coach bags are, and honestly I haven't found another one like it anywhere, that's including in Coach stores or online, which is exactly how I came across this awesome bag to begin with. Let me just say to make a long story short, I have bought 5 Coach bags in the past few years so I am totally familiar with the brand and all their gorgeous items. My Peyton Op/Art is rather large in size, hobo style, with two shoulder straps connected by shiny silver hardware and has two outer pockets, one on each side of the bag, with leather drawstrings to pull them open or shut. The color and design on this bag is what makes it unique to me, as obviously I've seen other Op/Art bags by Coach, but this in particular is a creamy white with brown canvas-like material with white leather patches on the bottom and corners. The pattern is large classic C's in white across the brown background. Inside is beautifully done in a light baby blue satin, with two small pockets on one side, and a larger pocket on the other with a zip closure. It has a cute hang tag on one of the shoulder straps that is a classic Coach hang tag in white leather. I added one of my favorite Coach key fobs on the hang tag as well that's a mixture of smaller Coach tags in pink, a heart made of pink rhinestones, and two tiny hearts, one is pink with Coach written in silver and the other is silver with a "diamond" like stone in the middle with Coach on the back. Now that I've described this bag in detail, I can tell you why I love it and why it's my favorite. I love it because it's big enough I can carry everything I need with me and then some, but being made of the canvas material it's not heavy as you would assume it to be. It's made impeccably well, as all Coach bags are. I love that to me it's unique because I am yet to see another one like it, in the same colors. It's my favorite because it makes any outfit look chic and stylish, and because it's Coach, of course!
