Coach Wallets new must-have collection boasts their original designers' likeness. Bonnie Cashin was famed for her outside coin pockets, and these Coach Hamptons have got those too. The best is the ginormous tote with mini leather flowers and equally mini leather purse on Cashin's shoulder. When I first saw the Coach Luggage Bag, I instantly thought of a flower. What better way to start the spring season, than with a Coach Poppy that resembles a pink flower.
