I realized this past spring during our capsule wardrobe experiment what a big difference small changes can make.  I can add a jacket here, a new accessory there and suddenly have a whole new look.  What’s that saying about a butterfly flapping its wings? It’s totally like that!  Not really, but small changes like a new bag or a pair of shoes can make a huge difference in your wardrobe.  I decided to take these two Coach Swagger bags out for a spin and see what all of the fuss is about.  It turns out they totally live up to the hype!  The leather is gorgeous and the design is completely versatile.  Both have shoulder straps, which I love, and their differing sizes make them perfect for switching from day to night.  Plus, you can now order designer brands like Coach from Zappos which means fast, free shipping and the best customer service in the biz!

If you’re always on the go like me, leave a smaller bag in your car.  Then if you find yourself with spur of the moment dinner or drink plans, you can ditch your jacket and day bag in exchange for something smaller and edgier like this bag.  However, my typical daytime agenda usually demands something larger like this bag.  It can hold everything from a small laptop and iPad to my favorite magazines and even diaper bag essentials if need be.  (Although, I’m really trying separate church and state in the diaper bag arena– more in this post.)

So which one is my favorite?  It’s impossible to choose!  I might have to do more research… (wink, wink)
