Nice!! It was tough deciding, right? You made great choices! Three, ya can't go wrong.
I was tempted by those colors too. The Snake and Black bags are supposed to have the best feeling leather. Jealous. Lol.
I wanna see your pics too! :)


Thanks Bobetta. I'm have deliveries coming everyday for the rest of the week. :)
 
Here is the cream snake. I really don't have anything bad to say about this bag. It came stuffed to its gills with nicely rolled pieces of tissue and in its dustbag, which is pretty nice. It's a pretty big bag compared to what I'm used to, and a lot slouchier. It has no structure, but with my bag organizer it stands up pretty nicely. The lining is thick and a great quality. The hardware is pretty nice, but not as thick and heavy as Dooney's. The zipper is smooth. The inside pockets are really functional. One thinner one that gussets out a little for lipsticks or pens. The other for a cell phone that is very generous for the bigger smart phones. The zipper pocket is a good size. I know the black will be just as slouchy as this, but I'm anxious to see how the ostrich one compares.

The picture has the bag organizer in it. I took off the long strap because I don't think I will ever use it. Not the best outfit, sorry. It's just what I had on today.

Ohhhh, it looks nice on you. And what a great and thorough review. Yeah, the Snake and Black are total slouch bags. Which is what I want and like. The Ostrich and Croco are stiffer. But I heard they break in. But no clue how much. I'm sure not as much as the Snake or Black. I carry a lot of things and the bag never feels heavy. Maybe because I'm used to Dooney weight. Lol.
But that Cream is pretty. You'll see the difference when you get the other bags. Can't wait!
:)

Oh wow, love the snake, great review, really a pretty bag.
 
They look great, Bob! Are you keeping both?


Hi. Thanks! I'm not sure if I'm keeping both yet. I do like them both. They are eye catching. But I think my fave is the Grey Ostrich. It's so neutral. But the Chestnut is super stylish and rich looking. Not sure yet.
Your Brown Snake is taking forever! Can't wait for you to get yours. I'm so interested to see what we all think of them. If I don't compare them to Dooney bags, I'm good. Lol. I can appreciate and enjoy them for what they are. And I'm enjoying them quite a bit. Fun to change it up, I guess. [emoji2]
 
They look amazing on you! My first thought was I love the gray, then when I opened the Croco, I thought oh I love it! I can see why you're having a hard time deciding. I love that that the gray is more of a mushroom. That was my other choice Over my other picks, but it went fast. I love the Croco, but I already have a similar bag in Dooney and I don't like to duplicate. Thanks for posting your pictures. You're the first!!


Thanks! It is tough deciding. And I'm liking that the grey is more of a mushroom. I thought I wanted grey grey, but this color is super nice. Lisa R. Is getting a lot of flak for calling it grey. I've seen other boots and items get called grey that seem really taupe/brown. Never understood that. But if she called it mushroom or mushroom grey even, she would've had one less gripe from people. I'm digging it. And the Chestnut. Grrgh. Trying to keep one. We'll see.
And I get you wanting to avoid another Croco. These are my first exotic style bags so it's a tough choice. But you picked well.

Cream snake is beautiful! :loveeyes: It looks great on you!

Thanks for the pics and review! I emailed Joy, who hasn't been in the forum for a while. She ordered cream snake and I know she would love to see your pics and read your review.
