Empire 28
Maple might be one of the most underrated Coach colors. This brown has so much depth depending on the lighting, and the structure of the Empire 28 makes it feel polished while still being easy to carry. This has quietly become one of my most reached for bags. #BagCharms #BagStyling #Eve

Birkenfying my Empire 40/ Goth Edition 🖤
My husband surprised me with the Empire 40 in the color Merlot and I’m obsessed! As a creative, I think the best part of the wave that this bag has caused was seeing how many people were making the bag their own with cool charms. I’m a lover of antiques and vampy tings, so I wanted my charms
