“An icon in its own right, the Soft Tabby Shoulder Bag 20 is what the ladies need in their collection. Especially if you love switching your day bags to a petite version for any evening rendezvous in Manhattan. The Soft Tabby Shoulder Bag 20 is what I tend to reach for after work and on dinner dates. While I’ve always adored the silhouette for its size, its versatility is what sold me. The two detachable straps let me carry it by hand, transform it into a short shoulder bag, or wear it as a crossbody when I want to be hands-free. Plus, coming from someone who embraces a softer palette in their daily wardrobe, I love enhancing my billowing dresses with the maple colourway to bring a sense of harmony to it.” — Amalina.

“Whenever I embark on my work trip, I tend to reach for my Tabby Shoulder Bag 26. With its structured silhouette and multifunction pockets, I can organise my daily essentials and reach for them easily throughout the day. Slightly larger than the petite 20, the bag sits in the sweet spot between the larger 36, and it packs a punch when it comes to storing all my essentials for the day. With its detachable long strap with a 54.5 cm drop, I can switch it to a crossbody when browsing a new city for added security. What sets this apart from others is the velvety suede feel, and the magenta hue is the pop of colour I’ll need on days I’m embracing a monochromatic attire. Just like how I paired this asymmetrical blouse with straight-cut trousers that take me from the boardroom to events and dinner dates, all in a day.” — Amalina.

“As someone who yearns for a minimalist silhouette, the Pillow Brooklyn Shoulder Bag is one I’ve been constantly reaching for throughout the week. I’ve always been a fan of the Brooklyn, and as a working professional who’s always on the go, this mid-sized silhouette is perfect. Plus, the latest style now comes in a pillowy soft feel. In true Coach fashion, style and versatility come together in the Pillow Brooklyn Shoulder Bag—a leather companion I’ll reach for on days when i’m flying, heading to events and on my busier days. Whenever I’m out of ideas on what to wear, I love throwing on a matching set that takes me from relaxed to whimsical. With a refined silhouette like the Pillow Brooklyn, it’s always a good idea to balance out the bag with a splash of prints to elevate the attire.” — Amalina.

“By now, you’ve probably noticed that the Brooklyn is one of my favourite silhouettes by Coach. This time, the latest Brooklyn Shoulder Bag 26 caught my eye with its elongated, compact shape. Echoing the minimalist silhouette of the iconic Brooklyn, this leather companion is what I’ve been carrying from day to night. For a night out in town, I paired this flowy blouse with a pair of culotte pants for a more polished, softer look, and the shoulder bag made it easy to navigate a night out. Plus, the comfortable carry makes it a seamless experience to flaunt for an all-day affair. If you’re all about suede bags lately, the bag does come in dark chocolate brown for that elevated chicness to your ensemble” — Amalina.

“Who doesn’t love a pop of colour in their wardrobe? Especially when it’s in a form of a sturdy leather companion like the Teri Shoulder Bag that brings a sense of life to your day as you carry it around. It’s sleek, playful and versatile for every occasion. Whether you’re on the way to a work event or a brunch date in the West Village, its versatility speaks to so many levels. I’ve worn this to a concert in the city as I sport a denim dress for a slightly rugged feel and even styled this with an oversized white button-down shirt and a baggy jeans for that elevated touch during one of my brunch dates.” — Amalina.

“On days when I’m on the move, whether it’s running between one event and another, the Chelsea Shoulder Bag 30 is the one style I’ll reach for at all times. When the temperature dropped slightly, I chose a cropped, trench-like jacket and camel-hued pants to match the refined feel of the Chelsea Shoulder Bag 30. The bag adds a chic allure without making the outfit feel casual. With its roomy, open interior, I love the security and ease of knowing I’ll have everything I need within reach. Although it is slightly smaller than the Chelsea Shoulder Bag 36, the Chelsea Shoulder Bag 30 still lets me keep my daily essentials close. Plus, its refined yet slouchy silhouette elevates my ensemble, and the shoulder strap makes it comfortable to carry. The best part? I love displaying my personality on my bag by decorating it with my plushy bag charms.” — Amalina.

The verdict?

“Exploring New York for two weeks has become an annual ritual for me, and with every trip, I’ve grown to realise the importance of having the perfect companion with me. Whether I’m clocking my daily 15k steps or taking the subway across the city, I always want my essentials close, and the perfect way to do that is with a bag that not only looks chic with my capsule wardrobe but is refined for every season. For the perfect travel bag, I’ve loved carrying the Pillow Brooklyn Shoulder Bag and the Chelsea Shoulder Bag 30. For a pop of colour on days when I’m strutting a monochromatic tone, the Teri Shoulder Bag in Poppy and the Tabby Shoulder Bag 26 in Suede Magenta are the ideal way to exude that. As a big fan of the Brooklyn series, I love that their latest compact, elongated style is exactly what I need for my minimalist days.” — Amalina.
