I agree that it’s usually older women that carry these bags, but not because the bags are old fashioned; more so because by the time you’re older you shop quality over fast fashion or fads. As you get older you become wiser and realize that a hefty price tag doesn’t exactly equate to quality or class. I speak from experience, as an older woman. I’m 50. I have LV, Gucci, etc ( you can see on my channel) but I’m going back to the classics and what I loved growing up. Love your new Dooney, it’s gorgeous like you! And the rest of your collection is lovely as well!
💕 Thank you so much for your kind words. And I will check out your channel. Dooney is definitely a bag of quality, and I cannot wait to add more to my collection.
They definitely need to market to the younger crowd and come up with different designs and colors. D&B is such a great brand and the quality is amazing! Most people snooze on it unfortunately. I’ve been rocking D&B I think since 2006/2007? Cause I couldn’t afford the LV 😂
💕 Yes to everything you said. The quality with Dooney may be even better and thicker than LV. 🤷🏿♂️ I have the LV Speedy 35, and I'm honestly not blown away with it. It's just another ridiculously expensive bag, and I honestly just bought it for the "name." Never again.
Idk if I'd be considered "older" but I received my first Dooney at 13...35 years ago! I just bought the Florentine satchel in micro. Can't wait for it to arrive! 😂
I had about 40 dooneys but sold over half of them. Why I want them back.😩🤣. But I will always love the brand. I am hooked on all of the Florentine in the color natural. Those were the ones I did keep. But the nano is a really cute bag.
Love the variety in your collection. I think you need more. 😊 I agree with the older woman vibe however within that is a connection to timeless, authentic, and classy appeal that will last for many years. Those other brands will be tearing, look raggedy, and outdated within a few years. I gravitate towards bags that fit my personality and sets me aside from others. To me the other brands look like old lady or even old money bags. Dooney is it for me! New subbie here btw🎉
💕 Thanks so much for subscribing and watching my video. Yes. I definitely want a few more. I have my eyes on the teal Nano. I'm gonna get it the next time it's on sale. And yes, the quality with Dooney is impeccable and will always be a timeless classic. 👌🏾
The nano really is cute but I carry so much and cannot part with any of it; I think the nano would only carry my tissues and the sneeze 😂. I'm 39 and I've also been loving the brand since my early 20s. Age is just a number anyway. Thanks for sharing your beautiful bags and thank you for your service to our country.
💕 Thanks so much for your kind words and thank you so much for watching my video!! And you're so right about age being just a number. People get so caught up & obsessed with age. 😩 They fail to realize it's a blessing to grow old. "Old is the goal." That's a Steve Harvey quote, I think.
I'm 52. Been wearing DOONEY and BOURKE since I was 19. My daughter's were gifted at 10 years old. I get it. It's just a expensive taste you have to have for quality. Great video ❤❤❤
Omg yes! I want the Teal too! That and Bordeaux 😍. Ps sorry to be blowing you up. Not many nano satchel videos to watch. So when I rewatch I pick up something I didn’t pay attention to last time haha 🤣
🥰 Thanks so much for watching my video!! And no, I have not done a "what fits inside video," but that's a good idea, though. Maybe one day I'll film one. And yes, I'm still loving it, but I honestly don't carry it every day. It depends on where I'm going and what all I need to carry, because the bag can only fit so much. 🤣
🥰 Aww!!! Girl, I really was feeling rough, though. Lol. 🤣 But my Dooney video had to get made that day -- or I would have procrastinated and never filmed it.
Aww! Love all your bags! The new little nano is definitely a cutie but my big hands could never 🤣 I do have the same bag in "mini" though and it is one of my faves. I agree that it seems Dooney caters to women over 40, which is interesting. I am 35 but I have been rocking Dooney for 3-4 years now. If you love it, do it! 😃💕 TFS!!
I just got my Florentine nano. I got the charcoal. I love it! I’m thinking of making him my everyday bag too. But I have to decide what items I won’t be carrying anymore 😢. He’s much smaller than his bigger brother, the mini.
💕 Yes! You are absolutely right about figuring out what to bring and what not to bring. Lol. It's so small, but it's so cute! I'm going to wear mine today for the very first time. I'm so excited!
@@anishkajf yes! Avatar scene “the first flight seals the bond, you must not wait!” I hope you enjoy her! ❤️🔥💗 If she gets wet don’t trip, she’ll dry out. I find lexol conditioner is pretty good, if she needs it. But a light coating. I have natural in the small.
Kudos to you for using / wearing what you like, and not caring about what others wear ! 🤗 In my book that is called having your own style and having a personality ! 🤗 You know, you could be influencing others when they see how good these bags look on you ! 👍😉 I have just ordered the Nano in natural color, so exactly the same bag that you show. So I looked for that bag here on RU-vid. And she looks GOOD ! 🤗 I hope mine will be as pretty as yours, cuz yours looks like she has perfect leather ! 😍
💕 Yay!! Congratulations on your latest purchase!! She's super tiny, but I adore her. I hope you enjoy her like I enjoy mine. And thank you for your kind words!! And yes, I wear what I love.
Sorry you’re only seeing older people with Dooneys. I’ve been rocking Dooneys since high school 2007 🫶🏼. I blame Dooney’s marketing. And prob Peter Dooney’s bad choices. Hopefully they get big again.
😮 Wow!! I couldn't even afford a Dooney back then in high school, lol. The marketing definitely has a lot to do with it. It's definitely not geared towards younger women.
Been wanting a Nano myself Nano' is short for migit in spanish and other languages, which is the smallest of the small ever made and I really wanted one, had the micro and sold it on Poshmart because the zipper was too small compared the size of the purse. I recently purchased the Pebble Grain Satchel in the color 'Brown Tmoro' in H 8" x W 5.75" x L 13" waiting on it to ship to me. Enjoyed watching your video and collection! Ive only made 1 purse collection video not from Dooney yet Have a Blessed New Year 🎉
🥰 Thanks so much for tuning in and watching my video!! And yes, the purse is itty-bitty and can't fit much. But I still love it and only carry it to certain places, due to its limited carrying ability. I hope you enjoy your new satchel!! 🥳 And happy 2024!!
Hi just found your channel great video. Love all your bags but I just say your DB Satchel is a real GORGEOUS!! Truly a gem bcuz they still make it but they only have the red cotton lining now n the green suede is reserved for their Florentine bags now. I’d LOVE to get my hands on with the lining yours have. Love it. Tfs😊
Beautiful Nano bag! She’s super adorable! A few days ago, on the I Love Dooney site, I briefly saw the Nano satchel in pale blue for $104 (with the Mother’s Day sale they has) and I snatched it. The moment I got my email confirmation, I went back and it was gone! I received it today and I love it!
💕 Thanks so much!! I appreciate you for watching. And thank you so much for your subscription!! Are you talking about my blue satchel?? If so, then yes, it's heavier.
I love bags and I also like the sent of leather too . I’m trying to decide between the small or the medium size bag .I’m torn between red & blue I usually buy black or tan this time I want a pop of color! 😎
