Dooney & Bourke

Love the feel and functionality of this wallet. Had my heart set on a zippered version as it's easier (for me) to access my money in these and I don't have to worry about the contents distending or the overall shape as sometimes happens with button types. I adore the little brass logo. Purchased mine in green. Leather is super supple...exterior like silk; interior like butter. Zipper pulls like a dream. My one and only complaint is that hideous interior color scheme: Christmas green and red. Every time I open it I swear I flinch just a little. Still pondering whether that one trait will have me returning. I thought I could handle it when I ordered, but if possible it's even more glaringly red and green in person.

Was looking for a large tote to function as both purse and to carry work essentials. Purchased this one in tangerine. The tote is roomy and accommodates legal sized paper though the zippered portion on top does make insertion of folders a tight fit. Leather is very rigid and strong. Both it and interior lining are of wonderful quality. Zippers very smooth. Tassels add a nice touch, but they are very rigid...would have preferred if they had a bit of movement. Also, the handles are rigid too, which makes them hard to stay on my slightly sloping shoulders. Still, it meets my needs and despite a small twinge of indecision, I'm keeping it because it really is just gorgeous.

I ordered this bag in Brown/T.Moro without knowing what the "T.Moro" meant, but I could see the red zipper and the russet edges of the leather, and it seemed unusual and was very appealing to me. Wiki Answers has this to say, "T-moro is short for "testa di moro"; Italian for "head of the Moor." It refers to the dark brown hair coloring of the Moors. T'moro brown is a deep, dark espresso..." I would say that describes this color very well. It's a deep, dark brown that looks a bit like the color of a well-worn and oiled saddle. This bag is truly elegant, classic, and classy. It's not a dressy purse but is rather more casual, and the domed top is somewhat reminiscent of an old-fashioned doctor's bag. The zippers go all the way down on both sides so you can really open this bag up and see/find what's inside. It's roomy without being too big, thanks to the wide bottom. However, even though the bottom is wide, it still hangs nicely against the body when wearing it over your shoulder. Another reviewer mentioned that she found the handles to be too short to wear over her shoulder, but I find it the perfect length for my shoulder. My arms are thin, so maybe that's it, but it seems plenty big enough for most shoulders. It has two outside pockets, one that's hardly noticeable on the back and is flat so that it would be good for lists, letters, etc., and the expandable one on the front with a very secure magnetic snap closure. It will hold things like keys, pens, checkbook, etc. The lining is a bit of a surprise and maybe part of the T. Moro theme: it's bright red heavy fabric, with green suede trim along the top and making up the expansion flaps on either side when the purse opens, preventing any content from falling out if you open it up wide. There is also the brown leather trim along the four inside pockets. One is a large zippered pocket, with a smaller open pocket under it. And there are two pockets on the opposite side, a larger one with a snap flap, and an open one. Both of the outside pockets are lined in red also.The red and green remind me a bit of an old-fashioned office, not sure why, but I like it. The heavy whip stitching along the bottom of the bag and the outside flap are either a very dark brown or black. I can't tell which. I love this color so much that I am considering the (very expensive) wallet to go with it, which is equally impressive. A leather key fob is included, which is simply a long (about 8")leather strip with a latch on the end. The hardware on the outside is burnished and looks appropriate for the color. Also, it is just the right amount instead of the ridiculous amount of superfluous hardware often seen on purses these days. The last detail I can think of to tell you is the leather tassels on the two zippers that meet in the middle of the dome when the purse is zipped shut, making it easier to find the zipper tabs when you open or close it. This really seems pretty much like the perfect purse. The only downsides I can see are the price (but worth it) and the weight. It is not a light bag, even empty, but I figure this goes along with quality leather. There is no doubt in my mind that this purse will be in fashion forever. It's a classic. And it has the quality leather that will last forever too.

I bought this bag in white with matching wallet. It is just the perfect bag. I think I will get the natural color also, it would be perfect for fall. Crossbody bags are my fav and Zappos is my favorite site to shop on. Love their customer care and the shipping is so speedy and free.

I absolutely love it! It is much prettier in person - very lightweight but sturdy. I purchased the wallet also. It is so great for the spring/summer months. I am going to buy the brown next!

Adorable bag but patent leather wears away on the bottom corners -- especially noticeable if the bag is red. Expected more from this brand and this price point.

It's a really adorably sunny bag! The size is on the small side of normal handbags, but definitely enough for the essentials, maybe plus a book as well. It's very well made, but if you're looking for soft supple leather, this is not the one! Overall, love it!

This Dooney & Bourke Mini Satchel in fuchsia is a color that is the most beautiful ever. This bag is more of a small or med, size and I love it. This bag rocks and so does Zappos. Buy it, you will love it!

This is a fabulous bag. It is a great size, good organization and high quality leather (it will last a lifetime). I own the lime green. I found out it will rain spot and those spots do not rub out. I do wish Dooney would stop the ugly high contrast stitching. It has a very comfortable cross body design.

I have never spent so much money on a purse. Sorry, but it is true. However, it is perfect. It has tons of pockets to organize, it can hold a notebook or my laptop, it is super comfortable without being heavy no matter what I put in it. I love it. And it always looks clean and classy. I am very happy.

This purse is excellent - quality all the way around and it looks beautiful! I purchased the Chestnut brown, love the color and it is so versatile. You will be able to use this purse for years.

I am delighted with this bag. It is small yet still fits keys, iphone, lipstick,credit cards/money. It is sophisticated and such a great look with my summer wardrobe. The leather is rich, soft, and beautiful.

I love this bag. So nice whenever I go out with mine people are telling me nice bag. The leather is superb. I love it.

This is a great "little bag" and it is little. I have just enough room for some lipsticks, my phone, keys, and a little credit card holder, that's it. I was hoping it was a tad bigger to fit a nice size wallet but if you put that in there you would lose room for a phone and your keys so that's just a heads up for you. Otherwise I really like it.

What a fabulous, classic bag! I ordered this one and the Large version, same colors. I am keeping the Large only because I want to be able to throw my laptop in. This smaller size is really great and I think I might have purchase it in another color in the future. It's perfect for an ipad etc, but for now, I need something slightly larger for work travel.

I purchased one for work reasons and got another for my mom. This is a very functional bag.

Absolutely gorgeous! Perfect size for me....I can fit my tablet, billfold, magazines, stuff for toddler! I adore this line of leather from Dooney!

This handbag is just the right size for me. The shoulder strap hang is perfect. And the bag stays on my shoulder. It must be the balance of size and weight. It's a great everyday bag. With the size of the interior, you can pack what you need - but not over stuff the bag. The outside sip pockets are handy for receipts and other small stuff. I would buy this handbag again.

Beautiful bag, soft leather, sophisticated design. The drawstrings are a drawback and it is not very practical to open and close the bag. I kept it though and after a while it gets a bit (not a lot) better.

I love this bag! I had been looking for a brown bag for a while. I ordered it in Chestnut and the color is beautiful. It's nice and roomy on the inside with several different interior pockets to organize smaller items easily. The leather is a soft quality leather, and even though there is a lot of brass hardware, it doesn't make the bag too heavy. Just love it!
