i painfully disagree. the first dooney i bought was yesterday, and it is timeless. i will attach a picture. the other Dooney i bought today is delecious, but the picture i found isn't of the exact color so i dont' want to throw anyone off. i've seen horrendous purses on every line.

I buy Dooney. And I like Dooney. And I wear Dooney. In fact the area where I live many women in their twenties and thirties carry the very nice looking AWL /Pebble Grain or Alto purses. Even their signature and quilted lines are cute.
I like Dooney because I live in the Northeast and Dooney can be carried anywhere regardless of the weather - something you might not do with more expensive bags - and the leather bags look stylish. So I'm not looking to put down the brand name or anything, but find this style rather garish compared to the more classic ones.

I used to carry Dooney but have recently sold off my entire collection. Most of Dooney's current bags are geared towards teens and tweens and I don't want to carry anything my 13 year old sister could also carry. I guess Dooney just seems too "young" for me any more.
Merika I like your bags! Especially the AWL
I got the AWL off ebay as an experiment to see if I could carry a hand-bag as opposed to a shoulder bag. It didn't work out so well, but I still love it. I think AWL bags are a little heavy as opposed to coated canvas or coated cotton fabric.
I think AWL is quite heavy! This isn't a bad thing though. That's why it can take so much abuse. I have and AWL backpack I use when I'm on vacation (because it's AWL lol) and it takes me a day or two to get used to the weight. But it's worth it because it won't get ruined getting wet or being out in the sun all day.
Actually I think this would make a great summer bag! It's cute and I love the kinda retro feel 
This one was a true classic. I esp. miss the tooled leather duck.
Those were the days, I remember my Mom had one that lasted at least 10 years, and never wore down. I think she still has it today. The quality was unbelievably good back then.
