I received my long-awaited (almost 2 weeks) Dooney Camden Woven Hobo last evening, but unfortunately it’s not a keeper, even though l bought it at a great price ($75 off).
It’s a beautiful, sturdy, well-made bag. The problem is the size— it’s large! (And they even offer a larger version!) It’s more north/south than I’m accustomed to, and cavernous. The bottom is deep (6 1/4”) and stiff, making it cumbersome to carry on the shoulder. Also, the strap is thick and not terribly pliable. I don’t know if it would stay on my shoulder... Another case of: l wish l had been able to try it out in-person!
@hicindy2 : You might like it in the crossbody version, which unfortunately would be too small for me. There’s no happy medium!

@handygal2 Oh dear, the Goldilocks problem. Sometimes it takes forever to get the right size. It is smart to return a bag instead of hoping it magically becomes "right". How many bags have we gifted or donated when the magic doesn't happen. You are smart to be proactive.

@handygal2 Too bad about the woven Dooney! To me it looks like that depth is a lot of the problem. Bags that stick out (and are not soft to slouch in a bit) do not work for me, either. Well, at least you tried it and now you know. Good luck with the refund process!

Awww @handygal2 I'm sorry that the bag is not gonna work out.
I bought the Lug Adagio bag and use it every day and thought, hmmm if only they would come out with a satchel. Guess what, they came out with a satchel called the Presto
I said to myself, how fabulous a bag that has the same name as one of my birds. The excitement was short lived when I read the measurements. Geez, had it only been 2 inches wider I would have bought it.

@Bird mama @Did youpurchase the new Prince 7 1/2 lb coffee table book, “My Name is Prince”?

@skyblue You betcha. Because I don't want amazon to take over the world, lol, I pre ordered Randee St Nicholas' book through Barnes and Noble. Of course this means they will strap it to the back of three turtles (because it's so heavy) and send the trio on it's way to me.
It took them awhile to get me the Prince 'memoir' The Beautiful Ones and I pre-ordered that one in April.

@Bird mama Speaking of Amazon taking over the world, they have a line designed in France no less: Maison d'Hermine with some fun stuff. Made in India which is OK by me
