Poppy is the generic name for a collection of multiple types and styles of bags from Coach. It includes big bags such as the Signature Spotlight, Sequin Spotlight or Patent Spotlight, small ones such as the new Bonnie Mini Frame, the new Bonnie Mini Zip or the new Poppy Swingpack models in magenta, blueberry or licorice colors, or the new Poppy clutches, which are absolute superb for cocktail parties, elegant dresses and high heels.
One of the most special bags in this collection, in my opinion, is the new Rhinestone XL Spotlight, made of heavy knit satin with patent leather trim. The biggest attraction of this purse are the multicolor rhinestones which outline the Coach logo and which remind me either of an illuminated city by night or of the winter mountain sky, full of stars. The side cinch details add a bit more charm to this awesome bag, at least that’s what my cat thinks. The outside front zip pocket is handy, but I have to confess I would have liked this bag better without that pocket. It’s just to small and it looks a bit strange, but this is not such a big drawback for this purse. Something that I’m also not very fond of is the chain-link shoulder strap. Luckily, it is detachable, so if you share my thoughts you can simply get rid of it.
Otherwise, the strap is convenient because it’s 36 1/2″ long, allowing the bag to be worn either on shoulder or as a cross body.
Another favorite of mine is the New Groovy line, available in several finishes and colors, the ideal bag for the classic woman. The two buttons detail on the front of this bag looks so cute that I feel it’s a must-have. At $198 on the official Coach website, I think it’s a good value for money. Moreover, it falls within my budget limits, so why not? Magenta is my choice of color, if I’m going to buy the purse.
