2 Bags To Shop for Fall From Coach

There is no such thing as owning too many handbags. (To my husband: If you’re reading this, you might want to stop here.) Whoever tells you there is doesn’t know what they’re talking about. I aspire to be a bag lady. My dream closet has a wall dedicated to my plethora of shoulder bags, clutches, totes, you name it. Given my bag obsession and career choice, I have a pretty good idea of what handbags are worth the buy.

This fall, two of the season’s best handbags are from none other than Coach. No surprise there—the arrival of the Coach Tabby Bag, with its updated pillowy shape, sent the fashion community into a frenzy a few years back. Now, we’re meeting The Brooklyn Bag and The Empire Carryall. The Brooklyn, a chic slouchy shoulder bag, has already been seen on supermodels like Bella Hadid; and the Empire, with its vintage-inspired silhouette, instantly elevates any outfit you style it with. I was lucky enough to get my hands on both bags (in multiple colorways, might I add), and I’m breaking down why they deserve to be in your fall lineup.

Enter the Brooklyn Bag. As I said, this bag is already making a splash on the streets and it’s a true game-changer for those who want a bag that does it all while looking effortlessly chic. I pride myself on fitting all my belongings in even the smallest of bags, but having something that can fit my whole life? I can get on board with that. The bag comes in two sizes, both with roomy interiors that don’t make the bag look bulky. While I love all the colors this bag comes in, something about the soft-brown suede is *chef’s kiss*. Walk into a room with this bag, and trust me—everyone will be begging you for the details.

Now, let me introduce you to the Coach Empire Carryall 26—the compact but equally stylish sibling of that massive bag you’ve probably seen all over TikTok. This bag is all about the details, my favorite being the adjustable crossbody strap. One thing about me? I love versatility and convenience. The structured top handle of this bag gives it a sophisticated feel, but the addition of the crossbody keeps things fun and playful. And don’t get me started on this buttery, natural grain leather. It’s sturdy but soft, so it’ll hold up through it all.
