Blue bags

Agree, I only use the dark bags on, well, dark bags! Fortunately, other companies use light color bags and, in fact, most are nicer than are Dooney's.. I actually love the storage bags QVC provides with their Gili bags. They're very nice, soft and neutral in color. I've often thought Dooney really could do better!

Bottom line, it's not worth taking the chance that a dark storage bag could bleed onto a lighter leather handbag. It's probably affected by storage conditions (heat, air flow, and moisture) and well as the type of leather and whether the handbags are close together. It might be a rate thing, but you don't want it to happen to your expensive handbag. I always use (washed) light colored pillow cases or pillow protectors for everything but black, dark brown, and dark blue handbags. And if a dark handbag has light colored trim, then I put it into a white pillow case first and then the darker storage bag, so I know it's a dark bag by looking quickly.

By the way, I've had dark dye transfer from dark handbags onto light trim when the trim was pressed up against the dark handbag. The handbag was stored in a white pillow case, so I know the dye didn't come from the storage bag..

I took a chance and bought an aqua leather bag from eBay a few years ago. It arrived in the blue bag with ink stains on it. Luckily the seller refunded my money. I never use those bags.

Never have a problem with blue dust bag no color transfer

Oh dear, handbag friends, you have me worried about my Dooneys in the blue bags. I have not had any problems with any dye transfer. Maybe because I live in the Chicago area where it's not too hot I am lucky? My bags are climate-controlled (because I need to be so, too!).
