Recently I visited the Coach store by my apartment with a couple of friends to check out the lingering deals to be had by the massive Coach Boxing Week sale. I quickly became turned off by the disarray of the "bag bins" and the lusty hands of deal seekers and wandered over to the non-sale section. There I stopped to swing a wandering finger across a pair of leather gloves lying idly on a nearby shelf. I did a literal double-take. My fingers had just touched leather as smooth as a baby's cheek. I had to touch more. Nothing speaks luxury to me more than a good "touchy experience," such as one feels with cashmere's, silks, and in this case, buttery soft leather. When I plunged my hand into the glove, I was met with another sensory experience of feeling the cashmere lining - heaven! Visually, these gloves are beautiful too with its discreet patent leather trim, subtle stitching on the outer palms, and its military-esque trio of brass buttons. Just think how cute these would look against a great tailored wool coat and matching cashmere scarf! Available at Coach for $158.

I checked out the sale and didn't buy anything.
Beautiful gloves! The white leather is gorgeous, although I shudder to think how that might get dirty really quickly. :(
ooh beautiful! i'm not much of a coach girl so wouldn't have seen these. thanks! i may have to go check them out. I love leather gloves and need a white pair.
gorgeous gloves!
you have been tagged yet again!
Hey! this is the color I like!
oooh nice gloves!! usually the normal leather gloves look ridiculous on me since i have rather small hands and thin fingers.. so they never quite fit right.. but love the fancy look of these!
@Issa: I totally know what you mean, my hands are the same way, but when I tried these on they actually looked quite elegant rather than just kiddish.
Those are gorgeous!

Those are so beautiful, I have a thing for really nice leather too! I love buttery soft leather, when I find a handbag made of such leather I can never put it down. Those are extremely lovely gloves though, do you think you're going to get them? I say go for it!

You Gotta get them! Oh Coach, how I love thee!! Coach leather is the softest, most butter and plush leather! I agree, the clearance bins are sort of grimey, but you do find some awesome deals. Check my post from 12-20-08 about my Coach Bag lust!
@AK: Sadly I don't think I can afford them right now even though I'd LOVE to have them :(
Hopefully they'll go on sale! Winter is coming to an end soon so there's still hope!
