I’m very tempted by this Dooney. What are your thoughts, do you own it? http://www.qvc.com/Dooney-&-Bourke-Smooth-Leather-Hobo-with-Accessories.product.A275666.html?orderId...

Looks like it only comes in that hellish purple, so it’s a no. Another (wearable) color, probably yes. To me it’s a nice shape and size, but the purple is too dramatic for me.

@tiggery  Hello, I first look at the weight of a bag and this one is too heavy for me.  It is 2.9 oz and I won't buy anything over l.5 oz.

I do like purple, however,

I could do a deep purple - that looks more like fuschia or magenta.

 

And it looks very heavy.

Really nice, smooth leather and nicely detailed accessory. Great quality. I own it in yellow. It was a tsv, oh, three or so springs ago. For me, though, it just seems a bit large, which is the only reason I don't carry it more. Love the purple!

@tiggery Keep checking daily if you're not sure about the purple. Yesterday, I saw the taupe, black and fuschia reappear 3x in one day.

I love purple bags as well as pink. To me they’re just a happy color. I’m just not sure on this style. I think I could enjoy the size of it.

I have a similar Dooney.  I get very frustrated trying to find things in the dark hole that is the interior.  Because of the short handle verses a long strap, it's difficult to get to the contents or even see them.  You're in a hurry trying to find something by touch and usually end up dumping out the contents to find what you're looking for.  I'll never buy another bag with this design.
