Handbag For LifeDooneyBourke
By Geralyn Hydock onI had been searching for a new handbag for the longest time. My bads need to be big as I ten to carry a lot of things in it i.e. picture album, baby treats, checkbook, makeup case, etc. I wanted something that was classy yet sturdy and long lasting at the same time. My daughter-in-law gave me a store coupon which her employer had given to her. I decided to check them out for myself.
My trip to the Dooney & Bourke store at our local outlet mall was very successful. I found my perfect handbag. There were so many to choose from before finally choosing a black Legacy one with a front flap. It is also available in other colors as well. I felt the black color could go with just about anything in my wardrobe.
The bag is the perfect size for me. Underneath the front flap is a pocket in front and on the back of the handbag. Inside there is a wide open space with a smaller, zippered back pocket. The bag is deep and there is enough space for all of my gear including toilet seat covers.
Each Dooney &Bourke handbag possesses the uptmost craftsmanship. Every single stitch is solid, there are no loose ends, and the bag is extremely strong. You get what you pay for and in this case, you have a product that you will have for years and years to come. If you tire of it, you could even sell it on e-bay and get a good penney for it as they retain their value.
I needed something durable and made to last therefore I chose this company. The handbags are made out of highest quality leather which can be cleaned easily with a wet cloth. They do tend to be more costly then many other bags but they stand up to the test of time. My bag is almost five years old now and it looks just as good as the day I first bought it.
This handbag is perfect for a casual outfit and has a classy look which Dooney and Bourke are known for. You can eve use it for a more formal occasion such as going out to a fancy restaurant or to a show on boradway. My husband balked a litte about the price of $210.00 but he too cannot believe how good the bag stiill looks. I highly recomment this company for their various handbag options and most importantly their quality.

Wow, glad to hear this keeps it's value for $200!
Yes! These are life time purses. I have two! That have stood the test of time--20 years for one. They never go out of style. Well worth the investment. Thanks.
Yikes! Way out of my price range for purse shopping. I have seen this brand of purse but I would have to get one that was used....I probably couldn't afford it then either !
Geri I consider certain things I buy in coats, suits, shoes and purses as "investment" dressing. Classic, classy and able to stand the test of time. Dooney & Burke are master craftsmen and create leather goods of lasting quality.
I think that out of all the more expensive brand of purses Dooney & Bourke are my favorite. I love all the different syles that they carry. I think you found a winner with this one. It sounds stunning.
Wow it sounds like you carry pretty much everything but the kitchen sink in your purse so I can understand wanting a good one! :o) I have only heard good things about Dooney & Bourke. My friend has one, but it's quite smaller and she just loves it and is always raving about it. Glad to hear you found your companion in a bag!
