Dooney and Bourke Florentine Vachetta Satchel
Not too long ago, my good buddy and fellow TBFer was asking about the Dooney and Bourke Florentine Vachetta Satchel. She posted a couple colors and asked everyone what they thought. After some positive responses, she decided to order it. Well, ever since then, I have not been able to get this bag out of my mind. Admittedly, I have not been one of Dooney and Bourke’s biggest fans lately… so this is a bit weird for me. Just look at this bag though! If it hadn’t been for the logo on the front, I would have never guessed it was from Dooney and Bourke.
What I like about this bag is the simple shape. It is a dome-like satchel with a top that folds down over itself. The result is a classic, but still somewhat casual look. Plus the leather looks so soft and smooth. No wonder I don’t think it looks like a Dooney and Bourke bag! But maybe this is their new look? If it is, I must say I definitely like it. So much better than those horrible styles with the cowboy boots or whatever printed on them! Maybe if I decide to get a new Dooney and Bourke handbag, I will go with this one. But first I think I will see what my fellow TBFer has to say about it!

That’s funny. I fell in love with this bag when I saw it on the Macy’s website a few days ago. Then the very next day I saw a girl in the train carrying it in black and fell out of love! It just did not stand out at all and looked rather plain. I only noticed it because she sat next to me.
I want this bag.
Are you going to get it? Good luck on your decision. There’s another version of this bag that I want. It’s taller and more like a tote.
Perhaps. I might wait to see if it goes on sale though.
Miu Miu anyone?
But the price is nowhere near that of a Miu Miu bag.
This was brought up on TBF. I can see it. I think it’s a nice look-for-less.
I haven’t purchased a DB bag in years. I didn’t even know they were still around
