To answer your question, ladies' purses.

Do yourself a favor, and don't ask if your wife, if you are married, if she has one or two or twenty.

They are, however, quite useful when the big rectangular box gets dropped off at your door. You can beg forgiveness much more effectively with a Coach bag.

Br1ck, you are obviously married and if you like zappa you are quite obviously insane.... but your observations are dead on. Wish you were my neighbor!

That would be "Michael Kors"..Coors is more along the lines of the husbands preferences.

This was my first thought as well! But the D-28 is always a safe and iconic choice.

Congrats OP!

I think a warning post is in order. For those who get the vapors over $35 guitar picks, best not to look at the Coach website as it may lead to blown headpipes.

What could you get for a Louis Vuitton bag? Froggy Bottom? Goodall? Olson? Ryan?

D28 = about a half dozen Coach bags!

Not even. My wife earns her money and buys all the shoes and purses she could ever hope for. In order to get a D-28 I must tackle her Honey Do list first - or pawn off all the shoes/purses/luggage/laptop bags that are collecting dust throughout our home.


Hmmm...now THAT's an idea!

Anyway, Congrats to the OP. Did you get the lifetime warranty and Leather Protection Kit from Zymol too?
