While scrolling on TikTok mid-New York Fashion Week, I came across a video of Elle Fanning sprawled out on an old orange and yellow Subway seat, reading a tiny book.
Upon further inspection, I realized this was taken after the Coach F/W 2026 show and the tiny book was actually a tiny book bag charm by the brand. The actress, who is nominated for an Oscar for her role in last year’s Sentimental Value, attended the show while wearing a whimsical Coach look that featured a long white dress with sparkling star details, a fur-trimmed leather coat, and a plush brown Tabby bag.
Of course, dangling from the Tabby bag was the aforementioned book charm, which was a miniature version of Sense and Sensibility, the 1995 novel by Jane Austin that follows the Dashwood sisters as they navigate love and heartbreak following their father’s death.
The bag charms debuted on Coach’s last Spring/Summer 2026 runway show back in September and have entirely revived our love for the accessorized bag trend we thought we’d leave behind this year. But with tiny book charms this cute, how could we possibly?
