I am super excited about this review! This has been the most anticipated Coach bag since The Rogue came out. At least for me. When I first saw this bag on the purseblog , my eyes widened and I was immediately obsessed. The Soft Empire Carryall comes in four sizes. Size 48 is ridiculously big, I cannot pull it off, but the 40? Perfect. Size 35 and 26 just doesn't give off the same wow factor. This bag is meant to be a statement piece and head turner. Kudos to Stewart Vevers for creating another hit that everyone will be obsessing over for a long time. I hear that more colors will be released soon, and I am hoping the distressed lived-in version will not be exclusive to size 48. In case it doesn't happen, I'll be using my Empire 40 as much as I can to give it a distressed look myself. For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and please check out my video to see what fits! Coach Empire 40 Merlot This bag is huge, it's definitely the biggest bag in my collection. ...
Tempted to get the Yin Poncho cos I like how the model wears the black one. I don’t think a poncho is too practical though ...
ReplyDeleteAlso interested in the Align Crop in Wee Are From Space Greyvy Persian Violet. Looks like a pretty grayish purple but not sure if the space dyed ones are as soft as the solid ones, My embossed Align Crop feels more like Luxtreme than Nulu, Thoughts?
Agreed, ponchos are not easy to wear... Looks very elegant though!
DeleteHard to say- regarding Wee Are From Space Greyvy Persian Violet- if they're anything like the pair I bought earlier this year - mini space dye herringbone- they do not feel the same as the solid color nulu. Here's my review-

They're textured and thicker and fit is tighter. They're still soft but they're definitely different because of the texture. So not sure if it's the same kind of fabric, I would have to see them in person. I still kept my usual size in Aligns. They were not tight enough to go up in size.
Thanks, Leslie. I remember reading your review on the herringbone one but this one might have a smooth texture I think ...
DeleteFinally got my refund for pants I sent back three weeks ago! Good luck! :)
Oh nice! I just got the email from Lululemon that my order was FINALLY processed for a return. So I hope I see the money back on my account in a few days. Whew!
DeleteThis was a pretty disappointing upload. I know I shouldn't get my hopes up, but the Hong Kong site got so much great stuff, as usual--like a cropped Sculpt Tank and the new Final Mile Crop Tank. Oh well. I don't need anything else or spend any money, so I guess I should be thankful I don't like anything.
ReplyDeleteYeah I think we def got the short end of the stick for this upload! There's always next week. =)
DeleteI got the iced iris align tank. I want the rogue renegade hoodie! I can't wait to see your review
ReplyDeleteAhhh I still need to try the Align Tank! The Rogue Renegade Hoodie is really nice. I hope it comes out in more colors.
