Last week I sold my D&B natural Florentine Satchel (the largest one) since I recently got one in the small size. I was actually sad when it sold even though I was selling it to fund an LV. It sold for the Buy It Now in less then 24 hours after I listed it. Now I am selling my black one and feeling sad even though they are too big and heavy. I just sold my LV Zippy Organizer and felt nothing, but for some reason I was attached to those Doonies. I actually hugged black statchel after I listed it. :p

I sold mine too. They were just too darn heavy. It was a relief to trade in for a BBW RM Mam...much lighter and easier access. I don't blame you at all....although I understand the reluctance to let them go---such chewy gorgeous leather.

Oh no! Just purchased the Florentine online, didn't realize it was so heavy...
It sounds like you were really fond of the satchels. Hope your LV will make the parting a little easier. If not, you can always get the DB satchel again :)

I have the small in the natural. The regular size was too large for my frame. I'm 5" 3" 110 lbs. A lot of bag, not enough me. :smile1:

I'm selling my large satchel in Natural. It's just too large! I rarely use it. I'm not worried about the weight though, I have a MJ Blake that is heavier empty!

I saw the small at Macy's and it's the perfect size. I'm aiming for a small one in black and maybe a mini in Natural! I love the style...I have always coveted a Miu Miu Bow but they are waaaay to expensive, but this is close enough.

I love the Miu Miu Bow but haven't seen one irl. Also, I hadn't heard of the Bow until the D&B satchel and how everyone was saying it was similar to the Bow.

I have just seen one and it was stunning! So gorgeous, it had soft brown leather...but to be honest, I prefer the Dooney's tassels to the Miu Miu's bows :)

I ordered the large satchel and when my husband saw it he said it looked like something a *Cowgirl* would carry.
Oh
my
gawd.
It totally ruined it for me so I sent it back, but I really think they're gorgeous!! Heavy, but very pretty!
