Sweet Whimsy
{My “Sweet Whimsy” Inspiration Board}
Today is the first day that my Coach bag is available for pre-order online. I’ve been overwhelmed by the positive response and am so touched by all of your support. Since this is a limited edition (approximately 200 are being produced), I hope everyone that wants a bag is able to snag one.
Available here or you can call Coach customer service at 800.444.3611.

http://lifegivemefashion.blogspot.com
I searched all over the website and the bag is not up there. Is it available in stores only?
beautiful bag…i would like to have one…
All 4 bags are up and all 4 are out of stock. It’s a really convoluted way to get there; I’m hoping this link works!
http://www.coach.com/online/handbags/genWCM-10551-10051-en-/Coach_US/StaticPage/blogger_bags
If not – click on new at coach and then selects ‘News”. Scrolll down and you’ll see the image for the 4 bags, 4 bloggers.
So sad that it is gone!
Thanks for sharing your inspiration board with us. It’s so pretty! I love seeing how ideas result in a final product.

****FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT CANT FIND IT ******
click on ‘new at coach’ icon—then coach news–then scroll to bottom right corner.. has a section that ‘flashes’-says 4 bloggers–4 bags—click on that.. IT SHOULD WORK!! GOOD LUCK ALL>. (they are all SOLD OUT THO>>:()
Congrats again!! What a great bag!
I wish I had the money for a new purse right now.
They are still available, but going fast, I just placed my order. Call soon!!!! 1-888-262-6224
Wow, lovely! Congrats on it selling out so fast, if the comments above are true!

Oh wow only 200! I couldn’t find it on the site XD But I wouldn’t have been able to afford it anyway
http://aclosetfashionista.blogspot.com/
I adore that shade of pink, pure perfection. How incredibly exciting for you, emily!!!
emily, it is so beautiful! i’m in love with its shape. congratulations again and here’s to your very bright future!
I spend all day drafting plans (I’m an engineer), and I love – *LOVE* the sketch of the bag’s design. (This would be the coolest print – artwork, of sorts – for my office. I’m always on the lookout for things that have a subtle “engineer’s touch” without being all pocket protectors, mechanical pencils, and drafting boards.)
Assuming that Coach doesn’t own the sketch (now that I think about it, that’s sa huge assumption), if you ever decided to sells prints of the sketch on Etsy…I’d be your first customer!
Congratulations. Love the bag!
Love the inspiration board. Love the bag. Love you!
gorgeous! I’m trying to find a new bag for work right now!
http://jammer10am.blogspot.com/
I love the bag! I wish it hadn’t sold out so quickly, though. Will there be more available at a later time? I’d love to have one!
the PERFECT bag for twirling and flirting. you nailed it miss emily. i must! must! must! get my hands on one. bravo for bringing coach back to ladylike status.
kisses to you.
xo,
katie
Love it!! but can’t find it either on the site
First time commenting, long time reader and admirer.
I really wanted to get this bag and have been stalking Coach’s website. Hopefully, they will produce more! Let us know.
Congratulations on the collaboration!
What an amazing opportunity! I’m obsessed with the color. It’s gorgeous.
You did a great job!! It is perfect. I can’t find it online…i bet it is completely possible it is sold out already

I really love the bag, it’s fabulous! What did you use to make your inspiration board? It’s beautiful!
Congrats! Loved the board. I wish I had the moola to purchase one!
Already gone! That must be a good feeling, though. Congratulations!
http://seejaneworkplaylive.blogspot.com/
Your bag is lovely ! You must be so excited !
This is soo cool. Especially the tag with your name on it.
Hmm.. I just checked the website and it appears they are still in stock – I could proceed right through to the checkout with it.
Just click on the bag, and wait for a pop-up checkout box to appear.
Emily’s bag can be found at http://www.coach.com/collectibles or in the search nav under “coach collectibles.” The collection is not sold out, and if you are still experiencing tech issues, call customer service at (800) 444-3611 to place your order, before they really do sell out!
Your bag is beautiful! Congratulations! I’m a big fan of Coach and this was just a fabulous idea.
That’s so cool, I love that inspiration board, I saw it on Coach’s Twitter. It’s very pretty
I’m really pleased for you! It’s such an achievement. My collaboration jean with a premium denim designer will be available soon and I’m so excited about it!! I know how you feel 
http://www.raindropsofsapphire.wordpress.com
Precious bag! I’m having the same trouble others seem to be having – I cant find it on the Coach website. I hope they arent already sold out!!
hope they aren’t all gone!
I work for Coach….They bag can be found under “Coach Collectibles” or under the “Coach News” section. We were told at work that it was supposed to be available for pre-order today but I coudn’t find a way to pre-order. You will officially be able to order it in June (Can’t remember the exact date), possibly the 2nd week. I’m so in love with this bag!! I’ve worked for Coach for 5 years and this is by far one of my favorites!!! Excellent Job!!!
the bag is wonderful and im sure it will sell out! i enjoy looking at inspiration boards, i have a couple of my own : )

Great inspiration board! The bag was really captured by it!
http://glamlatte.blogspot.com
JUST BOUGHT IT! So excited! Thank you, Emily, for designing such a gorgeous bag!
Congrats on the bag….I didn’t see it on the link either??
http://blankwhiteframes.blogspot.com
Funny story- so I bought one yesterday, then today (it is my anniversary), my husband tells me he also ordered one! I guess he got all the hints I was dropping, but not wanting to miss out and being insanely impatient, I also ordered one. Needless to say, in June I will have this baby on my shoulder!
It’s just so PRETTY! I want one desperately… You should be so proud, Emily! And that inspiration board is absolutely lovely.
xxoo Josie

SUCH a lovely inspiration board. It is all kinds of beautiful and your purse definitely matches that. Congrats!
http://collectionsandcreations.blogspot.com/
That’s so weird that some of you are having problems – I just got mine!
It’s still not sold out. It was more expensive than I’d usually pay, but I am just so in love with it and hadn’t bought a bag yet this Spring. I actually usually hate pink… but the pink you chose is just so pretty – and still neutral!

I love the pink! So pretty for spring and summer. I need one of these!
or go into your store and have them order if for you..that way the store gets the money for it
which they need because they set their goals so darn high for their stores!!
I ordered one, so far 25 have been sold! I was surprised to see that Coach did not have any product dimensions listed or available from their sales associates. Your design is beautiful and so classic!
woooooow! love the bag!
I’m in Canada and my Coach store couldn’t order it although I could (and did) by phoning direct to Coach. I located it in Boutique Exclusives on the Coach website. They told me it was backordered until June 5 and would be sent out then.
Can’t wait! I’ve been dreaming about this bag since I saw it– it’s a classic! Love your inspiration board Emily and love the bag!
xxx
I am so inspired by your inspiration! And beyond impressed. It’s just the perfect mix of classic lady + modern, edgy hardware. Take that Marc Jacobs!! Haha : )
i’m utterly obsessed with this bag – but there is no way i can afford it. maybe this would be an awesome giveaway opportunity too for those that can’t get one?
Love the bag, it has great structure and is so feminine!
http://www.littleblogofstyle.com/
goes great with all my whimsical sundresses for spring/summer
http://traychic.wordpress.com
Congratulations Emily! Your bag is beauteous
What a classic shape! It looks like something Grace Kelly would wear.
http://stripedandspotted.blogspot.com/
Do you just stare at that little pink leather tag in awe? I would. Congrats lady, you are such a rockstar.
Love inspiration boards. The bag is beautiful. There is no way that everyone wanting one will get it, not at 200.
I would definitely go out & get that bag if I had Coach money lying around! Tres chic & ladylike. Your message board makes me think of Paris. Well done
http://www.primandprose.blogspot.com
Congratulations on the bag, totally resembles you (well, that is, what I can tell about you in your blog)!
It’s so pretty. The pink is perfect. I was at the Westchester mall yesterday and popped into a Coach store to ask about it. The sales person didn’t seem to know what the heck I was talking about and said perhaps it was a fall release. Happy to see it’s avail online.
Congrats again. Just amazing. xx
http://novembergrey.blogspot.com/
I adore it! Fabulous job, Emily! If funds would allow, I would definitely be one of those 200 lucky buyers
I just love that you call it Sweet “Whimsy”!

That bag SCREAMS cupcakesandcashmere!
