Well, that's sounds like good news. Inventory must have arrived... or been found and counted, so they can process the preorders.

there is a tracking number and it will arrive Saturday. I will record an unboxing. I’m excited. i didn’t think it would be at the outlet because of the preorder ship date, so I ordered online thinking it wasn’t coming until October. Very nice surprise indeed
 
my Tilton crossbody is out for delivery. I Am Super excited. It’s rainy here today so I will not carry my birthday bag. Even tho it’s navy, I’m scared and don’t want it rain spot ruined. i will be packing my Tilton for my ban island trip. Lol…. so many florentine Dooneys to choose from. I’ll be shopping for a shelving unit Friday to store my new treasures. My closet is stuffed…

I'm confused. I thought your Tilton was chestnut??? Did you buy 2 of them?
I can barely keep track of my own collection, so I have no business asking about
your purchases.... except to live vicariously through you treasure hunt and
beautiful acquisitions. And to share a forum for all of us to enjoy these treasures.

Clearly, I was confused. I mixed up the birthday bag with the Tilton.

You are among friends.
We share your struggles.
Stay strong and be selective in your purchases.
We do not need to own every bag we love in every color we love!
(repeat to myself, several times a day... maybe it will stick)

Bordeaux in Florentine is lovely.... BUT.... some years it's has more of a brown
undertone and some years it's more wine and some years it's a deeper bordeaux.
Hard to judge from photos. May or may not make a difference to you.

Thank ya. I laughed out loud and hard when u said we don’t need to own every bag we love…. I needed that. i will definitely have to repeat that mantra. That smith bag looks great, the color is pretty, the price was right. I put it on the installment plan so I don’t feel so bad… I will use each and every bag while I’m on ban island. I will evaluate what I like and don’t like. I will not look at anything else, until after Black Friday…

the Tilton was definitely my birthday unicorn. I did look at it after I had my coffee this morNing. It’s beautiful. The pebbling on the sides gives it character. Felt pretty cool running my fingers over the pebbled. I look at it as a unique bag that only I have. I’m keeping her.


so far this flap crossbody is wonderful. Love the front pockets. Love the back zip pocket. It’s roomy but doesn’t feel big. I’m very happy I added this one to my collection.

You have chosen well in your Dooney collection selections.
Keep using and enjoying what you have. The more we use our bags
the lower the 'cost per wear' and that makes them even better choices.
Just think, after owning them (and using them) for years they will be even
better values. And that is how I 'justify' (to myself) buying so many handbags.
