Classic Dooney
I wanted an orange tote for traveling that would hold snacks and a bottle of water along with all my essentials. This bag fit the bill. I was hesitant to order because of the reviews about the strap drop length. I'm a size 8 and I had no problem whatsoever, even after trying it on over my jean jacket.
I love the classic look of the pebble leather with the sierra trim. Got caught in a little rain, no problem at all. Received compliments right away.

GREAT SHOULDER BAG
This is a great shoulder bag the leather gets softer the more I use it. The front pocket is not very functional unless you have tiny hands and use it for very small items. (The front pocket may give with time and use)??????? But it is still a great shoulder bag and the price is excellent

great Dooney style but . . .
I received two in T'Moro and two in Ivory but will be returning all of them. The leather is soft and nice but too soft that when carried by the handle straps, the leather looks pulled up where the handles are attached to the body of the bag. The ones I received also had too coarse of grain pebbling and I strongly dislike that look. I don't mind the tight front pocket but the zippers are surprisingly not typical of Dooney bags -- they were dragging and a pain to slide. I was able to manage a technique to slide a little better opening the bag though it still catches when closing it back. I even checked to see if it was caught on anything but it wasn't. Another thing, because the leather is too soft and the base is wide, the bottom sags. Might be okay if you carry like a satchel (the sagging bottom will not be too visible) but if carried on your shoulder, it looks sloppy from the front and the back. Also, between the two ivory that I received, one is almost a true ivory and the other leans more towards almond shade (hint of yellowish beige). Great Dooney style and beautiful sierra trims but needs more firm leather material, one that will hold structure.

Straps too short
I am so disappointed. I just returned another handbag and found this one and fell in love with it. I received it today, excited to use it I exchanged things from my current purse and went about my way. Went to sling it on my shoulder and it was not going to hang from the shoulder. I am 80% shoulder and crossbody bags and I have my favorite satchels. I do use my satchels but when the mood and time fits. I have to say this bag is beautiful. All the pebble leather all the way around is uniform, soft and the color is true to picture shown and the color is stained evenly. I love everything about this bag. The size is perfect and the straps are not 8" I measured them, they are about 7"-7-1/4". Had they been 8" I could of worn this on my shoulder. Still not sure if I will return this bag but chances are very good -- I will. I will not order another bag from QVC because frankly I'm tired of returning them. If its incorrectly described than the quality isn't there. I'll check eBay before ordering from QVC again. I have ordered thousands of dollars of merchandise over many years with QVC. I have seen quality and descriptions totally go down hill. Too bad!

Nice Satchel
This is a beautiful, almost perfect bag. The straps are too short to be considered a shoulder bag. This wasn't an issue for me because I generally carry satchels anyway. The reason I gave the bag 4 stars is because the front pocket is too tight. It is too snug to put my keys or cell phone in it. The pocket really needs to have a gusset. Very classy looking bag.

Nice but Zipper is very stiff
I like everythign about this bag except for the zipper. Was goign to send it back, but read the reviews and THANK YOU TO THE LADY WITH THE SOAP !! I tried that lastngiht and it worked better than the mineral oil, or the WD-40. Now its a keeper.

one shoppers out look.. + a few suggestions?
I've read the reviews, I ordered the bag in tan and moto and gave it a test run.
Sadly + with a great deal of consideration, I am returnign the bag...
for same reasons stated by most others in the reviews. Also difficult to really
rate it, as parts of the bag deserves maybe a 4 or 5...
But If I may .. a few suggestions D&B
This is a handsome, beautifully made bag ,
the pull tassles are a great change/look, color combos great,
deep bottom to accommodate lots of "stuff" ,
less weight than many of your bags,and well priced.
But here's the rub.... the zipper is a bit too short
and it does stick too often,shoulder straps just a bit too short!,
front logo pocket needs to be deeper,to at least hold a cell ,
reduce weight even more? .With a few modifcations,
it would be a REAL gem to own.
If ever you do, please give a holler and I'll step right up to get one.
I think every women is looking for that "perfect" handbag+ you're almost there!.

Great Basic Bag
Great job D&B for bringing us another great basic bag. The design meets all of my needs (I was one of the lucky ones to get it in ivory)!! Here in central Texas spring has sprung so I'm using the bag every day. So beautiful!!

Superb!
What an absolutely beautiful bag! I purchased the ivory and I'm going back for the black. Such a wonderful contrast in leather colors on these bags. The bottom is large enough that it makes up for the less wide top opening. The front pocket is very narrow, but still will work for either keys or phone. Everything else can fit inside the bag no problem! It would have been nice to have the straps a bit longer, but still better than the super short handles that are sometimes the only options in certain bags. This is by far my most favorite bag so far from D&B! Can't say enough about how beautiful it looks and feels!!! The supreme quality that D&B offers is unbeatable! Ladies this bag is a must in any color!

Practical and Classy
This is my fifth Dooney & Bourke bag and I love it as much as the others. The style fits me as it is very classy and classic. The colors works well with various outfits as it a terrific neutral. The shoulder drop is not an issue for me even when wearing a coat. The inside is very roomy and I find it easy to find both my personal iphone and my work blackberry as well as all the other things I need to keep my day-to-day organized. Thisis a bag that works well for me but I can see those who prefer a small bag or one with more of a shoulder drop may not find it working for them. My husband noticed it was new then said the 'bag is you', which is a compliment in his own sweet way. He knows that I love D&B bags and notices when I switch between the ones I already have. My only disappointment is the cloth lining instead of the sturdier material which is in my other bags. This may stain easier than the lining of the past. With that being noted overall I am very satisfied.

LOOKS GOOD BUT NOT PRACTICAL !
Very elegant looking bag, but supprised me with being not so practical ;short straps,narrow front pocket.

SIMPLE BUT SCREAMS GOOD TASTE
First of all, I'm not a DB girl, per se, but I am a purse nut and a bit of a snob on my choices. What drew me to this bag is the color combo of black/tan. Very sharp looking. For some reason I thought it would be a bit larger, so my first thought was to send it back. Then after reading some reviews on the "wide bottom" and the outside pocket-both negative- I decided that I should at least take it out of the box and see if it would accommodate everything I keep in a bag. The wide bottom made that happen, so what it lacked in width(for me), the bottom made up for. I love that wider bottom feature! Stuff is spread out making finding things easier instead of everything being being stacked on top of each other. Yes, the handles should have been made longer, but with no coat on, it works on the shoulder and since I need to give my shoulder a break, no pun intended, handles aren't a problem. Outside pocket holds my cell nicely. Just to add insight to this review, I have many B. Makowsky, KVZ, Marc Jacobs, Michael Kors, E. Fiore and a couple of Coach, and one other DB, all large .I'm very happy to add this new bag to the party.
