When Coach's Brooklyn Bag went viral a few years ago, I knew it was a piece I had to have—and once I owned it, I nearly never put it down. It ranked amongst my favorite laptop bags and nearly dethroned Longchamp's Le Pliage as my go-to travel bag. But now, there's a new Coach bag hanging from my shoulder—and it might just replace every other one I own, including the Brooklyn. Meet: The Chelsea 30.
The new style, which retails for $325 and comes in a mix of leather and suede finishes, offers the minimalist appeal of a traditional shoulder bag and the interior capacity of a much larger tote. It’s a Mary Poppins-esque style, built to fit just about anything (and everything) you throw its way. It also comes in a slightly larger size, the Chelsea 36, which retails for $425.
