So after I got off work, I drove to the outlet. Everything was 40% off and had an extra 20% off for the Labor Day sale, which ends today…I was really looking forward to this store as I've never been to a dooney outlet. The store was tiny, but they had all the new pebble leather satchels that came in Toledo florentine back in the day ( domed satchel, medium mail satchel, stanwich hobo) they were VERY beautiful and large. ..
so when I first walk in the store, on the table in front of me, was ALL the Florentine. Sigh they had ivy green, stunning color, in ALL the satchel sizes, from nano to large. But I wanted a large navy Florentine satchel as my birthday bag. And I was greeted by the 3 S.A.s. I told them I was there for my birthday bag. I immediately ask for every navy satchel in the back, the one on the shelf was handled/ scratches. She brought out 2 and both had smooth backs and textured fronts. Sigh then I see the small domed satchel in ivy. LOVED it! But I got it in chestnut $129 I see the Florentine fold over crossbody in ivy $119. had to have it with matching deluxe mo Zip wallet. Im circling the store looking at EVERYTHING and the S.A brought out the SMOOTHEST FLORENTINE NAVY SATCHEL ALL IN FACTORY WRAP. GOD IS SOOOOOOOO GOOD.
I got a card holder in black, small striped carrington, and a double zip wristlet completing my birthday HAUL… they gave me my first duck. I love EVERYTHING in my haul

I went to coach to look at bag charms and the line was out the door to get in…

Sounds like a great way to celebrate your B'day.
And winning, even a little bit, makes it even more fun.
Winning more.... just helps pay for the entertainment, food,
and more handbags.
 
We had fun. Played some new games hubby was dying to play. Food was excellent. It is a bonus when the casino gives as well as takes... We don't go often, his birthday in March /my birthday in September, so it is a real treat.

I would get at least one. It's a nice compact little wallet. Some of them are made in America. That video I linked to YouTube italdia reviews, show the difference in the reg small zip and the made in America small zip. The large zip around credit card case is worth looking at too. Nice size and looks great, has zipper coin pouch inside and not on the back like the other, and its also cheaper.

I'm definitely drawn to the small zip around in the color Ivy. And I want to take advantage of their sale right now. I just watched a video from a woman that reviewed a ton of wallets. This Greta caught my eye, because she described it as an accordion, and there's a zippered compartment that has more card slots. Screenshot 2023-09-26 at 2.24.13 PM.png

Eh, nevermind. I just read the wallet is in that coated cotton material. I saw one of these purses in the store with that material, and I did not like it, it felt like vinyl to me.
