I ordered a Clipa. But considering the weight.... I'm not sure it's going to
work out for me.
My Clipa came. This is a fabulous little accessory. Genius in design. Easy to use. Pry it open, place it where you want it, put your bag on the other end of the hook and voila…. Says. Holds 33 pounds and I will be testing that claim. When not in use it can hook around the bag handle or inside a pocket. I wish I thought of this. it’s really simple and elegant looking. Thanks for telling me about this @RuedeNesle

You're welcome! I'm so happy you love it!
Yeah, it would be nice if I had thought of it instead of just telling everyone how great it is. :laugh:
 
I've just started using my Clippa. So far it works better than the other
bag hooks I've tried. The biggest downside is the weight of the
Clippa. My bags get so heavy. just from my keys and other must haves. I try to
lighten things up when I can.
When you are young and strong, you don't notice the weight of your handbag....
I'm at the stage where I notice!
 
Does anyone have the Dipinta in any style bag? I see d&B finally has them on sale and can't decide on the tomoro brown or natural.
Yes. I got the Dipinta mail satchel in t'moro. I'm happy with it except for a couple of things. One of the leather loops holding the handle ring on the front is bare, no paint at all which looks odd. The other issue is the shipping. I believe it was a return as the tassels were not wrapped & were all misshapen when I receive it. I got it on sale so I'm keeping it & will attempt to put a little acrylic paint on the bare leather loop. Crossing my fingers on that! You can't see the loop in this pic but I will take better pics later.

It looks beautiful. No need to to anything to it. Wonderful addition to your collection.. I love this bag. The brown tmoro is so beautiful. Very easy to train the tassels.
 
Many of the older style Florentine handbags are back on ILD.
Great to see these beauties again. Hopefully there
will be sales in the future. Until then, I'm relaxing on ban island.
Arrrrggggg. It just doesn’t stop… temptation get off my back…. This is so lovely. I tried on the pebble version at the outlet. I want a tulip shopper in my collection. And this hobo too…

Ooh thank you so much! I will get more pics with a pic of the bare spot later on. It will drive me crazy zeroing in on it if I don't dribble a little paint on it. The back looks good. Yes, I've got the tassels in sleeves now. If D&B would only go back to properly shipping we wouldn't have the damages caused by bouncing around in the box, argh.

Congratulations on adding this piece of art to your Dooney collection. When I get a bag
in the mail that is less than 'perfect' I always ask myself if I saw it in person, at that
same price, would I think it was worth buying. If the answer is no, I pass it by.
If the answer is yes, I try to focus on the discount I'm getting because I know over
time I can forget about the minor issue. This works for me most of the time.

O M G I love it! Your bag is gorgeous.

Could you do a review of the bag, please? I’ve been eyeing the mail satchel. I’m kicking myself for not grabbing the Bordeaux last weekend on ILD.

I don’t see many navy options… that tulip shopper is on my wish list. My Black Friday $$$ will be well spent. Maybe I’ll go to the outlet and see some sales in person. Then continue online for cyber Monday….
