Turquoise for Fall?

cinebee — Mon, 25 Aug 2014 22:36:53 GMT

I have wanted a bag in this color for a long time. I finally caved and ordered this one. Now I'm wondering if it will be OK to use in the Fall. Judging by the photo it seems to be a darker more saturated color so I'm hoping it will be usable year round. What do my fellow handbag addicts think? (It will also be interesting to see if I actually get a new bag or someone's return. I am keeping my fingers crossed.)

That is a great color and pretty bag! I live in south Texas so I would use that color year round especially with the brown trim.

I have a similar Dooney in that color and absolutely would wear it year around. I might hesitate to use a pale aqua, which seems more suited to spring and summer. but this turquoise is deeply saturated. It's a year-round color.

Beautiful Handbag - Gorgeous Colour - love the Dark Brown Trim! For me - this would be a Four Season Handbag - looks great with Chocolate Browns, Beige/Taupes, Winter Whites, Hunter/Dark Greens, Navy, Mustard/Golden Yellows - even Reds (love Turquoise with Red)/Aubergines.

Also - all the 'Southwest' Colours are perfect for this Handbag.

Hope you receive a 'new' Handbag!

I love this color and would use it for fall, winter and spring. I tend to go to off white, beige or white in the summer but that is just me.

Why do you think you would get a returned bag? I have been shopping with QVC since it was CVN and I don't think I have ever gotten a return.....

Anyway, I am a bit jealous of you carrying this great bag. Enjoy

Sometimes they ship returned bags. I got one of the DB bags which was not stuffed with paper, so clearly a return. Didn't matter since I ended up returning it for other reasons, but if you pay full price for a brand new bag, you want what you paid for, that is A BRAND NEW BAG!

Thanks everybody. I can't see the last three posts because they are covered by the photo. Weird.

Anything in turquoise, aqua, teal, etc. just screams my name. I am also seriously thinking about this one to save for next Spring. I am hopeless. This color is DDG.

I have received bags that were obviously someones returns several times. I keep them if they are absolutely in perfect condition. I have returned a couple because they obviously had been used. Not gonna pay full price for something someone else has used and returned! If this one appears used it will go right back. (You listening, Q?)

OP, I covet that bag. I love the Toledo mail satchels and would love to have that one in turquoise, and yes, I think it'll work for fall. It isn't 'typical' fall attire, but I think the beautiful dark brown trim enhances it's versatility. This bag is beautiful in ever color.

Incidentally, anyone know why that picture is blocking posts 4-6 and what the point is supposed to be?

Save till next spring? Just wait for new styles I'm sure there will be 100 of new bags you will crave.... I like this one in Brown, but trying to behave..... and I can't see those 3 posts either. Oh, and the turquoise color is one of my favorite too. Perfect for any season. I am getting a handful of turquoise jewelry for myself....love love love sky blue!

That's a gorgeous color bag and I'd use it all year in a heartbeat (and I live in the Midwest)...

I got an ivy returned logo lock. It was a mess in the box and was missing the coin purse - the main reason why I bought the bag in the first place (it was before I discovered they are for sale on the Dooney site.)

When I called CS to get this shipped back for free, they said a LOT or Dooney's logo locks get returned missing the coin purse!

I own that beautiful bag in the golden yellow color and I agree that at least from the presentation the turquoise color is darker and with the dark brown trim makes it very versatile.

cinebee enjoy your bag I love the turquoise color too it was hard to decide which color to get when I caved (lol).

The turquoise arrived today and it's gorgeous. Now I'm fighting with myself trying NOT to order the yellow, too! I think the yellow would be beautiful for as a little added color for fall......

Enjoy your new bag ! I guess these days there are no rules. I have turquoise bag and I love it,although it's an open tote so I have to wear it in the summer. I just bought powder pink satchel and I plan to wear it this fall. I posted picture of it today on the post about Kate Spade new bag on general handbag topic.
