I ordered 2 of the Florentine double zip wristlets $55 a piece. I ordered the chestnut November 1 and it’s coming from California. I ordered the navy November 2 and it’s coming from Connecticut. Both ordered from ild ebay. I’m curious as to how each arrives. They have all been sold out on ild ebay as of today.

when I ordered the flo coin cases some came in a box and some in envelope mailers. Also one looks like it was off the sales floor as opposed to coming from the factory in wrap…

Yay! I’m so glad all were keepers. Glad your large navy domed was better than the last. from your descriptions I can tell you were pleased and that makes me happy. That sale was so good I guess a lot of the items sold out.
that flo drawstring that’s on sale is tiny. I’ve looked it up on YouTube to get a feel on the size. It’s super cute, but way smaller than the Logan. Would be a nice summer carry.

I have a Dooney small drawstring in ostrich. Yes, I know it's small. 😁😁😁
But thank you for reminding me. I kept the ostrich small D/S but promised
myself I wouldn't get another in that size. Time for me to keep that promise!

I don't know why I buy bags that are small. I really prefer larger bags that I don't
have to fuss with my contents. I think it's a combination of the fact that I'm searching
for light weight handbags and some of the small bags are so adorable. I get carried
away at the good prices.

It’s really cute, and I could see it for errands or a lot of walking. For $149 I would rather have the large domed satchel that you got. The smaller domed satchel is like the same price. I really like the classic look of the domed satchel. And the smaller Bordeaux is calling. But I have to wait til Black Friday to spend anymore money on handbags that I don’t need, but really want…

I typically don’t like shoulder bags, but I did find the bag and strap, were comfortable for wearing. If that makes sense. The strap is pretty thick, and there’s 5 holes on each side, so you can adjust it.

I find sometimes a shoulder bag bothers me because the strap is too thin for the bag. This is how I feel about the Buckley. If the strap was thicker to accommodate the massiveness of the bag, it would even out the weight distribution.

Exactly how I feel about the flo twist strap too. That strap needs a couple of inches to support that much leather. I sent one back. Gorgeous bag, terribly thin strap yet I still ogle them.

But I do like the twist strap detail when Dooney uses it on straps or handles. 😁

I agree, lots of Dooneys shoulder and cross body straps are too narrow...
on smaller and on larger bags. You could 'almost' understand for smaller bags
the strap was designed to the scale of the bag. But that explanation does work
for larger bags. And even on smaller bags, you need some width on the strap to
support the weight of the contents in the bag. Keys may not take up a lot of room,
but they are heavy. And so are cell phones.

I love the twist strap detail. I love it on both the LARGE and small Logans. Surprisingly it was very comfortable on the LARGE Logan. I think because the leather was lightweight smooth leather as opposed to Florentine, it made a big difference with the carry. I am not a fan of the thin Buckley strap. Buckley is way too big for that doubled thin strap.

I have discovered a new unicorn. I am absolutely in love with the design of this bag.

Does anyone here have this? If so, please tell me about it.

DOONEY WHY DON’T YOU MAKE THIS BAG ANYMORE?!?!
