2 Ways I'm Styling This Chic Accessory for My Winter Outings

If you're like me, your calendar is already packed for 2025, and there's just no time to spend hours figuring out what to wear. So these days, I've got an outfit formula for every occasion. A co-worker's wedding? A black dress and kitten heels will always do the trick. A friend's housewarming? A tailored pair of trousers or a statement maxi skirt will never fail you. Dinner with your partner's parents? A pretty cardigan paired with thoughtful accessories (and a bottle of wine) is always a hit. But no matter the occasion, one essential always ties my looks together: the Coach Nolita handbag.

Though miniature in size, the Nolita bag packs a big punch, seamlessly elevating any outfit. This season, I'm particularly drawn to two colorways. It's no surprise that I love the patent cherry-red shade—it's bright, bold, and just plain chic—but the bag also comes in Coach's signature canvas, a timeless neutral that pairs effortlessly with anything and everything. It fits all my essentials (AKA my phone and lip gloss) while adding a polished finishing touch to all my looks. Keep scrolling to see how I style two outfits with the Nolita, proving just how versatile this bag really is.

There's something so chic about a monochromatic black outfit—it's sleek, classic, and universally flattering. But to add a bit of a allure, I always add a pop of color, whether it's through my nails or accessories, and in this case, it's both. For this look, I styled my all-black outfit with Coach's Nolita bag in patent cherry red. It's the ultimate accent piece, adding just the right amount of fun, while keeping the look sophisticated, making it perfect for weddings, evening soirees, date nights, and more.

For an outfit that already has bolder elements—like my red cardigan and the playful bow in my hair—I like to balance things out with more neutral accessories. The Nolita bag in Coach's signature canvas is the perfect complement to this look. Its iconic pattern adds an elevated touch and doesn't compete with the outfit's bright tones. This look would be ideal for a chic dinner or anytime you want to feel polished and pulled together.
