This Covetable New Tabby Is The Perfect Canvas For All Your Bag Charms

More is more this fall.

by Andrea Gale

Out: Perfectionism. In: Self-expression. Enter: The Times Square Tabby, a spin on one of Coach’s iconic designs, and one of the season’s It bags. Versatile and infinitely customizable, the quilted leather carryall is the perfect canvas for showcasing all of your favorite bag charms, an accessories trend that is dominating the streets and social feeds alike. At once quirky and maximalist-chic, the latest charm craze is a chance to play and let your style preferences be known. (Spoiler alert: Coach has also aced the assignment there, offering charms ranging from New York taxi cabs to fuzzy teddy bears to coquette cherries.)

Accompanying the Times Square Tabby drop is the brand’s latest campaign — Unlock Your Couragewhich takes aim at negative self talk, demonstrating the way its of-the-moment styles can help you create an aesthetic that’s utterly you. With the help of Elle Fanning, Charles Melton, Nazha, and Youngji Lee, the campaign conveys the ways its latest designs can summon forth your individuality. A message that feels right in line with the embellished charms and bursts of self-expression this season.

Covetable & Versatile

The Times Square Tabby, with its classic, modern, customizable design, can handle all the bold accessorizing you can throw at it. A contemporary spin on an archival Coach design from the ‘70s, the Times Square Tabby is iconic in its own rite. Accented by gold-toned hardware, the washed nappa leather is designed with raised geometric quilting. The look is striking and contemporary while remaining classic — stunning on its own if you favor minimalism, and minimal enough to add as many bag charms as you like. There’s hardly a look the simple lines and slender, chain-accented shoulder strap (it comes with a detachable crossbody strap as well) can’t accompany; you’ll find it works just as well with edgy leather and lace as it does quiet luxury cashmere.

A Look Inside

In terms of features, the Times Square Tabby’s versatility only increases — it’s a practical choice for daytime and the office, while remaining compact enough for evening. Roomy enough to fit a smartphone, along with other daily essentials like a wallet or even a small water bottle, the design features a center zipper compartment, ideal for stashing small items like your keys or lip balm, along with a snap pocket, and a slip pocket; an outer slip pocket is the perfect place to stash your phone for easy access. And the adjustable leather and chain strap can be styled to wear either long or short on the shoulder, depending on your preferred look and feel — try it as a casual crossbody on weekends, paired with matching sweats and a classic trench.

Add Your Charm

Now that you’ve imagined the many outfits and essentials the Times Square Tabby can accompany, it’s time to personalize — shop Coach’s line of adorable charms to create a variety of whimsical looks. Whether it’s a Big Apple-themed tiny red apple, quirky pretzel, or classic yellow taxi cab, or something more coquette like a cherry charm, each piece is charming on its own or paired with others from the collection.
