Selena Gomez’s Coach collection is coming soon. Will the bags be available in Fresno?
Pop star Selena Gomez has a new line of accessories through Coach coming out soon.
The “Selena Grace handbags” will be available in three colors — Selena Black Cherry, Selena White and Selena Red.
But will you be able to get one in Fresno?
The jury’s out.
Managers at the Macy’s in River Park and at Fashion Fair Mall said they were unsure if their stores would carry the bags, though they do already have some Selena Gomez products and sell Coach products.

Preorders for the limited-edition Selena Gomez collection begin Monday on the Coach website.
The handbags also will be available in Coach stores beginning Sept. 1.
The Coach Selena Grace will cost $395.
Fans also can visit Coach.com now through Aug. 22 to register for a chance to win a signed Selena Grace bag and a trip for two to meet Gomez on Sept. 13 at Coach House on Fifth Avenue in New York City.

But with the nearest Coach retail store more than 100 miles away, those in Fresno might have to take an extended shopping trip and hope handbags are available if they want to see how one looks on their arm before buying.
The double-handled carryall, which Gomez designed with Coach creative director Stuart Vevers, features a few personal touches from the singer.
“Love yourself first” is written in Gomez’s cursive style— a phrase inspired by one of her tattoos — on the base of the bag.
“To be you is to be strong” is sewn on a patch inside.
“I’m very excited for everyone to finally see the design Stuart and I worked on together,” Gomez said in a statement. “I can’t wait to carry it — it’s totally versatile, perfect to wear day-to-night, and it goes with everything.”
