I had a D&B many many years ago. Still own a few things. But now, 15 years later, I'm back into the brand. My husband got me the small Pebble satchel for Christmas and I'm in love. It's so beautiful. I'm in awe of it. Great video!!
Beautiful DB satchel. I love the natural color but opted for navy instead. I fold in top flap so the handles are easier to grab. You’re right about the weight but it’s such a beauty that I just deal with it. Ha! Thanks for sharing. Congrats on your new baby.
I’ve had my regular DB Florentine satchel in natural for about 3 years. It’s my FAVORITE!!!! It has patina’d beautifully. I love to hold it by the handles and to wear it as a shoulder bag. You’re right. You can’t put it in the crook of your arm, but I’m not usually the type to wear my bags that way. Love this bag and loved seeing your review.
I love my Dooney bags.. that fold over style would bug me personally so I opted for other in the Florentine leather .. but I LOVE them over my higher end bags the quality is just so so good!
I had purchased the same in the navy color. I also did the strap the same way since I alternate shoulder and top handle carrying styles and personally love the look of the longer strap hanging on the side. Sadly, as you said, the bag is HEAVY!! I ended up not keeping it, but miss it still!!
I bought the medium bag which is like a large. Got it on eBay chocolate for $200.00! Must be new or brand new because the leather smells wonderful. I LOVE this bag and I am so happy I was able to get it in a great color at a great price.
The way you connected the long strap is so unusual and I love it. What a perfect bag. The color is divine. I used to be drawn to the black but the natural ages better over time. Thanks so much for this video.
I have this bag and it is beautiful, but when you're out shopping and carrying it on your arm, it's not very easy to get into this bag. It needs a back large pocket.
I have had 4 of these bags in different colors and have noticed that the florentine leather on this bag varies. The florentine leather is suppose to be smooth...not pebbled so watch for that. The other thing I've noticed is that depending on where you get it from, some of the florentine leathers are thicker than others. I've had both. One of mine was very thin leather compared to the others so watch for that!
Thanks for the great review. I have the small in 3 colors but cannot carry them as frequently either because of similar issues. Would love a review of the Mulberry.
I had this satchel in the small size in natural and I sold it a couple years ago for a lot of the same reasons you mentioned in your video. But I regret it so much! I wish I had kept it because it’s just so stunning and such good quality. I just bought another one in pale blue but this video makes me want another in natural too 😄
Gurl I have the same bag and it is still beautiful. I have had it for years now. It does have weight to it, however my boys are definitely all grown up so its just hubby and myself . This is a great bag. I reach for this more than my LV. ;-). Anyway, congrats on your baby!!!
Thank you for the review, I have wanted this bag for a long time. I did have the large version when it was available back in 2014 ish and it was way too big, and I may have kept it had I known how to adjust the strap to make it a shoulder bag because the crossbody length even on my 5'6 avg frame was hitting me at between my knee and mid-thigh and it was very annoying. The leather was amazing and the bag was gorgeous.
So glad to see this because I'm trying to decide between the small and the medium, it's so hard to decide. I'm worried the medium will look like an overnight bag but I have a Coach satchel that's the same size as the small & I don't need two bags the same size. Arggg, what to doooo???
Lovely bag, I do not own any Florentine bags yet, all the ones I like sell out so fast. I do not normally carry satchels, but this bag is making me reconsider.
Love this! Just bought one off Depop Australia NZ$147 (US$100 shipped) and it’s so slouchy that it falls into itself so doesn’t look as big as what it really is, gorgeous leather and still has the Florentine smell, patina and some marks but I love it! I leave the zip open and fold the flap into/on top of each other, and double up straps, much more functional. Has been my unicorn bag for years 😍🇳🇿 PS: kids are grown and don’t carry a lot so not heavy at all 👍🏻
I used to have that exact same Dooney and I agree it is so heavy! I ended up with a small instead. Did you condition yours since the natural is prone to rainwater spots? I love D and B Florentine leather it’s gorgeous!
I love the flap! I rarely zip it up and have never had anything fall out and it makes getting items easy.

Great video!!
I just bought that bag. Navy color. I am so in love. It’s very under rated. The quality is amazing. Love, love it
Great review! Beautiful bag. I have noticed that D & B bags tend to be on the heavy side.
I love D&B the leather is literally like no other!!
One of my favorite styles. I am in my ginger satchel now. I also have it in navy

I’ve had this bag for more than 10 years. The leather is beautiful

That is a gorgeous bag. I love the color. I have never seen this bag before until now. It looks heavy too. Thanks for sharing.

Have you done a video for beginner collectors of handbags and what you recommend where to start?
I have the same bag and I love it - especially around this time of year. I'd love to see you review the Mulberry! Thanks!

I have this bag in Natural and in Chestnut. Beautiful bags!
Thanks for the great review. I have the small in 3 colors but cannot carry them as frequently either because of similar issues. Would love a review of the Mulberry.
What brand are the sun glasses! Need those in my collection
Beautiful..I have that Dooney in black..Your Mulberry is gorgeous!!

Fabulous review! I am shopping for the same bag. Thank you so much for your very helpful video 😊

Would love to see the review on the other bag as well !!! Love your purses 👜
This is gorgeous!
Lovely bag! What price did you get this for? I’m wondering when to buy it and what’s the steepest discount.
So glad to see this because I'm trying to decide between the small and the medium, it's so hard to decide. I'm worried the medium will look like an overnight bag but I have a Coach satchel that's the same size as the small & I don't need two bags the same size. Arggg, what to doooo???

Lovely bag, I do not own any Florentine bags yet, all the ones I like sell out so fast. I do not normally carry satchels, but this bag is making me reconsider.
Love it!!! And so I ordered one now. Ha!
I bought a Florentine Brenna satchel, and I had to sell it because it was way too heavy!

Hi! what's the style of Gentle Monster sunglasses called?
I have a rotator cuff issue and that just looks like it would tear it up :( beautiful though!
Even with the exaggerated duck face expression (when the airplane passed by) you are still so pretty. 😊 I hope to be able to buy this bag in due time.
Thank you! I was shopping and researching and missed this video of yours!
Would love to see a review on your LV bags!😊
Omg I loved your video! This bag is next on my list! I just posted my what’s in my bag video and gave my bag similar compliments 😭🤗
Love to see the review of the Bayswater!
I have this in small and it’s heavy. I have not used it in a long time 😂 but the leather smell is still amazing.
I used to have that exact same Dooney and I agree it is so heavy! I ended up with a small instead. Did you condition yours since the natural is prone to rainwater spots? I love D and B Florentine leather it’s gorgeous!
I have this bag! I love it
Ready to sell it?
Most beautiful hair on the planet!!
I agree that the handles can be longer.
Love this video!!
1. It’s heavy
2. TOOOOOOO HEAVY!!!!!!
3. It’s too heavy.
End of story
Lol!
Very heavy! I have mine in the closet and always is my last option.
Doesn't appear to be a well designed handbag especially for the price.
Can you do an update on this beauty 🙏🏾
