Does anyone remember this idea? Guess what Peter did? OMG!!!!!!! So excited!!!!!Ok, the "gold mine" is working overtime tonight. I had to see how these two colors looked in the zip zip. I love them. We need them, don't we girls?
Coincidence? Who knows but I love it! Still need to add the tassels though.
Dooney seems to be releasing a lot of handbags in Claremont leather. I don't mind the woven, I have one of those and it's nice. It's a larger domed satchel. But I don't care for the Claremont pebbled leather.... it's an embossed and coated leather, the coating is mentioned in the Dooney site care instructions for this leather. I just don't care for the feel of it. But I do like the styles and the 'woven' is nice. They also did a Sydney style in Claremont. Maybe they will release that one in woven too. We can hope.
FYI these bags are featured on Day One of the Twelve Days of Dooney for $129!!!!! LOVE THEM!!!!
YD: did you buy one? I got the black woven zip zip. Couldn't resist for that price.
I did! I bought the Tmoro woven zip zip. I love the black and Chestnut too. Geesh! You'd think Dooney would comp me a bag or two. LOL!
Peter listened...these are available at Macy’s

Yes. They are beautiful. I have one in a vibrant blue and I know others had purchased other colors. I think the dark brown and the black would be stunning.
Oh yes, I have a few of the lizards but I like the new bags with the darker trim. Very pretty leather. I like the current Bordeaux and Midnight.
This is not a specific bag concept....but I do wish that Dooney straps were wider and cushier. I love the way that they look - they have that signature equestrian look that they are known for, that makes them unique, it's their thing...and yet, it's what keeps me from being able to buy most Dooneys. The thick, high quality leather is quite heavy for me since I have shoulder issues. The two small satchels I have left have wide enough straps to be comfortable crossbody (though I don't think anyone else wears their satchels like that? Most photos I've seen show people holding them in the crook of their arm), and the large nylon satchels I have - well, one came with a leather shoulder cushion piece, and I ordered some from Etsy for my other 2. I am totally at peace with accepting, however, that these will be my only Dooneys (I have way too many bags as it is!), and they are so perfect for their purposes, so I am not complaining. Just wondering if anyone else has had similar thoughts/issues.
