I worry that the Chestnut will be too dark but that the Natural is too light, lol! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iso-brown-leather-tote#post-1066063 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 15:51:31 +0000 Von 1066063@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That bag is actually on my bag list -- in the natural color.&nbsp; I think it's a beautiful tote and the color can go with everything. As far as quality, you can hardly do better than the Florentine line, and Dooney bags are pretty rock solid.&nbsp; </p> <p>I have a few other tote bags on my list for the fall, but I'm a self proclaimed bag junkie, and you should proceed down this list at your own risk :).</p> <p><a href="http://www.whippingpost.com/products/the-vintage-tote-bag" rel="nofollow">The Whipping Post</a> has a really nice tote, not as dressy as Dooney - it's unlined though, and I think the strap isn't as long - but depends on your size.</p> <p>Will Leather is another of my favorite bag makers. The <a href="https://willleathergoods.com/shop/bags/signature-utility-tote/" rel="nofollow">Signature Tote</a> is just something I think would work well for me to grab &amp; go, but it's not fully leather. <a href="https://willleathergoods.com/shop/bags/beck-tote/" rel="nofollow">The Beck</a> is ohh la la and I like the handles.</p> <p>This bag is my <a href="http://www.saddlebackleather.com/totebag?sc=8&amp;category=301418" rel="nofollow">current daily bag</a>. So far the bag seems indestructible, and I do not baby it at all.&nbsp; I like that it's open, but it's not everyone's cup of tea.&nbsp; It's my work tote and can carry a 15 inch Macbook, though the site will lead you to think you need the large for a laptop. I have an "old" tobacco color (they just updated to the dirty looking one) which is really similar to the Dooney in color.&nbsp; My next one will be Chestnut or Dark Coffee, because I think they would look sharp for work.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iso-brown-leather-tote#post-1066034 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 15:29:35 +0000 tammyw 1066034@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am a very *basic* bag girl. I like simple and reasonably large totes. I have a nice black tote (Cole Haan) and a purple leather bag that is also a camera bag :)</p> <p>I'd really like a simple, classic, brown leather bag.</p> <p>This is the only one I've found that I really like so far, but I've never bought Dooney and Bourke before. Any thoughts?</p> <p>Any other bags that might be as good or better?</p> <p>Russel Medium in Chestnut:<br /><a href="http://www.dooney.com/OA_HTML/ibeCCtpSctDspRte.jsp?section=60425" rel="nofollow">http://www.dooney.com/OA_HTML/.....tion=60425</a></p>
