Web ID: 5045237Loving this bag!
I saw this tote in the store and I couldn't get it out of my mind. It is stunning!! This is my first D&B purchase and I am very pleased with this bag so far. I purchased it in Bordeaux which is very eye-catching. This tote is very practical for travel, work, weekend and everyday use. I love that it has a zipper and not just a magnetic closure. I had this tote for about 2 weeks and get complements every time I take her out. I spilled a little liquid in this bag (ughh) and it is very noticeable on light colored lining. I read somewhere that D&B bags get better with time so I'm very interested to see how well this bag will age. Over all....I'm loving this bag.
Awesome tote!
I collect Dooney & Bourke bags & I am in full agreement with the first review on here. This style is more akin to Brahmin's line if you are familiar with their croco styles. So it is definitely a huge plus that I got this awesome croco from D&B. I purchased this bag (in bordeaux) for my 44th birthday in March. It's a beautiful, timeless, roomy tote with presumed longevity. The only downside is that the inside is tan and I had a spill that will not wipe off and it shows. The good thing is that no one will be looking at my inside lining (it just bothers ME personally)...but I do usually stay away from purses/totes/bags with light-colored linings. The beauty and craftsmanship makes that a minuscule issue. Additionally, I can not see myself carrying this tote over my shoulder. Like the first reviewer, I purchased to carry by hand.
2nd Review
Purchased based on the only review. I guess I can't mention her name. Her description is long but it needs to be. A lot to describe. Stunning, georeous bought the Bordeaux and Expresso. A classic, timeless heirloom.
THIS WON'T DISAPPOINT!
Those of you who follow my reviews know I collect Dooney & Bourke Everything:-) I received this bag today in Bordeaux. For those "Big Bag Ladies," this is a dream ...it certainly will not disappoint. The bag isn't too heavy when empty. Now, the croco is exquisite ...and the Bordeaux Color is gorgeous. It has feet with the leather strip across the bottom ...a sign of an expense bag. I, personally, would not use this as a shoulder strap bag even though the handles are quite sturdy. I bought it to carry with my hands. The zipper close is quite secure and my preference. It has an outside front and back "slip pocket" for items such as ID Card, lipstick or even a cell phone. For ladies who are active and carry everything under the sun in their bags ...this is your dream bag. You can fit file folders, a date book, all of your cosmetic essentials, a full size tablet plus a water bottle and even gloves or your favorite magazine. If you exercise this is great for gym clothing plus footwear. I, of course, rarely do any of these things, hehehe, but I still love a huge tote. Inside is a side zipper pouch for more security and underneath an open insert for a large mirror. On the other side it has two (2) additional open pouches for your key holder and coupons. I can't say enough about the versatility of this bag. You can also carry a matching crossbody while walking with this to handle all your business needs. Usually, I buy Brahmin handbags in croco but this Dooney is on par with those of you who also love the coco Brahmin style. I wanted this bag in Dec 2017 but decided to wait. Lucky me, it was on a tremendous sale. I am still thinking about this in Expresso...decided to purchase the other croco D & B with handles and the shoulder strap, in Expresso, today. I trust this information will be helpful in your making a decision. T.3-14-18 NJT 9:40 PM
