Its official, Team Coach has hired some poets to join their design team. From observing the finishing product, I’m not sure what to think about the “Poppy Is Glam” tote. Sure it’s creative, and some bagista’s don’t mind carrying scribbles and logos on their handbags. But somehow, I don’t see much artistic feel to this tote; it appears to look more like a cut-magazine-letters-and-paste-on-a-bag, project.

When you’re carry a tote with letters around, you’re bound to attract some readers, and the poetic inscription of “Poppy is a girl, is a flower, is a state of mind, Poppy is now and forever, Poppy is love I am Poppy”, isn’t necessarily the brightest statement most would want to advertise. To add more dazzle to this statement making tote, Coach adds a bright aqua and glimmery silver trimmed double handles that screams fun summer bag, that’s if you like this look. Look beyond the funky letters and white classic C’s lines the fabric, that way everyone will know that this is in fact your fun and casual Coach bag. The $198 price tag is fairly reasonable, but personally, I would much rather invest on one of the more classic pieces that Coach has to offer.
