Hi LID!
Thanks! Red caught my eye first, then I saw FLO and she took my breath away! This is my first time actually seeing someone carrying a RED Flo satchel! And I noticed she doesn't have her strap attached so she's a hand carry woman.

Seen today at the Indians-Cubs Spring Training game in Vegas. And it's a San Francisco Giants logo bag!
Happy spring holidays Doonistas! I live in a big city and as I see lots of Dooneys coming and going, I occasionally see one that presents particularly beautifully. I took this pic last summer but have been thinking about the Patterson hobo this morning. The lovely leather called my attention to it right there on the street, and everything about her simple style works with the bag. Dreaming about summer and summer bags in the still chilly northeast.
WV: thanks for sharing the pic and your thoughts. I like the Patterson collection from Dooney. The pebbled leather is a nice quality, much thicker than the generic Dooney pebbled leather. And the trim details on the Patterson collection are a nice change of pace.... not overdone, but just enough to add some interest.
I was grocery shopping at Wegman's in King of Prussia, PA today when I spotted two lovely ladies with their D&B Pebble Grain Zip Zip Satchels. Of course, I stopped to compliment them on their bags. They told me they love their Dooney bags. And they were kind enough to pose for a photo. Dooney ladies are the best!
Hi DG!
What a great sighting! How nice of them to pose for your pic. They must have enjoyed talking to you! What fun!
At a school event a while back.
Hi C!
Great sighting! I'm going to have to keep my phone out because I've been seeing a lot more Dooney bags lately and I'm too slow on the draw.
Tourist season is picking up in SF and I've seen a few Pebble Leather CBB's. And I saw a SF Giants hobo in Walmart last week. I need to be ready!Hey RN! You're so right. Bags pass me by all the time and I'm never ready. Plus, I don't want to be caught ad the creepy person taking pics of other people's bags. [emoji28]Hi C!

I lucked out this time that the person set down that bag for quite a while not far from me. And with our kids performing, it was perfectly normal to be taking pictures. [emoji56]
That's exactly the way I feel! I realize I don't have a "poker face" and I probably look like I'm up to something. And suddenly doubling back and chasing someone down doesn't help either.
I have a better chance when I'm in Union Square because so many people have their cameras out taking pictures. But I usually don't notice a Dooney bag until I'm too far away to get a good shot or I'm too close to the person to take it without them seeing me.
I remember I saw a woman with two alto bags - one on each shoulder, and I was kicking myself for not snapping a photo for this thread!
At first I was like, “What? Two bags?” But then I remembered that I have carried two bags a few times. I have gone to the grocery store with my shopping Crossbody (it’s nylon) and my satchel of the month (usually leather) because I do not want to leave it in the car. I feel silly but I figure no one will see me...at least no one with a camera!
Took this picture in Target this morning. I took it quickly so she wouldn't notice me. After I walked away I decided to go back and let her know I love her Dooney bag. She was the nicest woman! She said she got it pre-loved and I said it looks roomy. She said it wasn't as roomy as she thought it would be and she showed me what she was carrying inside. I showed her my Ambler and what I have inside and she felt mine would hold more. I asked her if she knew about I Love Dooney and indeed she did! I didn't want to take up too much of her time, but I wish I had asked her if she was on, or heard of the Dooney Forum.
