can I AW my coach purchases?

I don't own any coach stuff and I doubt I ever will but I did enjoy picking stuff out for my girls...I spent easily 45 minutes walking around trying to figure out what to get...so here goes:

For FSIL who is a BM...nice small purse, she already has a huge one so I figured this one would be a nice smaller option...


For the Best Woman...FI got her a bottle of rum from St. Lucia as part of the gift too but she came to both of my showers so I figured I got some say in her gift.


And for my MOH...big old purse in summer colours...I want to give it to her now but she told me I had to wait til the wedding...


Thanks for letting me show off...I would feel more ridiculous if I was showing off stuff for myself but since it is WR stuff I feel (slightly) less AWish

    I am completely obsessed with Coach (to some people's horror... but I don't care!!!) and, uh, those are really, really cute and fun gifts.

    Do you need another bridesmaid?  :)

    Now I feel like an a-hole for giving all my BM's cans of sardines.

    To be fair, I really only did this so someone can post a secret or call out about how materialistic/AWish/spoiled/rich/etc I am...take the heat off other people...

    When we were in the states my gf and I had a convo about whether or not we would spend our imaginary unlimited funds on expensive shoes or purses. I said purses but only because I can't wear heels and so Manolo's and Choo's would seem like such a waste sitting in a closet.

    One of my BMs is actually getting a non-coach gift because she really doesn't like coach (the one who travels) so I got her something else...I figure the gift is supposed to be about the person getting it...

    Jas...trip was great...I spent just over $300, claimed that I spent between $150 and $200 and they didn't charge me duty!

    I didn't really buy myself anything, a couple of things at Target (including a Shake Weight...Nebb, don't kill me!)...but other than that my trip was really about BM gifts so I managed to control myself...

    Nice job on the purses. You have some lucky BM's.

    I personally own 3 Coach purses, but we got them at the Outlet Mall, and they are leather, so you cant tell they are Coach unless you look at the inside label. I love them though.

    I've never been a purse person, but I'm sure your BMs will appreciate your efforts.

    Nice! I like that the two brown ones are pretty classic styles that will look good for a long time. (But I love the bright one too!)

    I love the outlets. i have a medium sized purse and matching wallet I got for 50% off.

    Actually, perhaps my favorite outlet buy is my Kate Spade purse. Originally $140, purchased for $40 at the outlet.

    I used to date a guy that thought it was ludicrous that I could spend nearly 400 bucks on a purse (that's my most expensive Coach purchase) - but he would buy guitars that were like, 1400 bucks.

    I wear that purse all the time... and his band broke up. 

    I win.

    Hehe well good :)

    I know expensive purses might seem like a frivolous purchase to some but seriously, after buying my first Coach bag I could never go back.  I feel so good carrying around one of those things.  They're expensive but they're not like, too ridiculous (unless some of those snakeskin design ones that go for like, 1200 bucks.  That's just insane!)

    i *heart* coach.  luck BM's.

    i like their Mia line and have my eye on the black leather purse for winter.

    coach has great customer service -  my SO bought me a pair of shoes that were backordered and they sent him a $100 gift certificate as an apology. :)
