After chicness and functionality, versatility is probably the most important quality in a truly great bag. It takes a rare accessory to seamlessly transition from everyday errands to nighttime statement maker — but if it can also stash all your essentials without being bulky? That’s a real gem.
Allow us to turn your attention to two such notable finds: the Coach Nolita and Teri bags.
Coach Nolita
Named after one of Manhattan’s chicest neighborhoods, the Nolita is small but mighty. The deceptively diminutive zip-top shoulder bag — which can also be worn as a wristlet — is roomy enough to stash your keys, phone, and go-to lip gloss (or four), and even has two internal credit card slots. The Nolita also gives range when it comes to colorways, fabrics, and prints, spanning canvas, pebbled leather, straw, calf hair, and more. A Fashionista favorite is the newsprint style.
Coach Teri
If you need something with slightly more storage, the Teri bag is that girl. Available in crossbody and shoulder styles — with detachable straps to convert from one to the other — it’s as adaptable as it is stylish. Some styles come with Coach’s signature bag charms, while others lean classic with the brand’s recognizable C print, or go textural with quilted or straw fabrications.
