Question this dooney bag...

Anyone seen the new d&b line, mini bubbles? I personally think it's cute. I'm just not sure if it's too "kiddie."

cPanel

I'm debating on whether i should buy it. i think the cocoa one is nice. I'm new to this site, but I have read many of the threads and it seems that many people here don't like Dooney.

Hey, don't get me wrong... Dooney makes great bags. But then... sometimes they make really ugly ones that make you wonder what kind of drugs these people are on! I love the new mini bubble collection... its a little bit kiddie looking, but in a good way. What I don't like is the new candy collection and picnic collection! Those are just plain gross! I love all of their leather ones, their signature quilt ones, and even some of the IT bags are okay. Dooney just doesn't seem to want to find a happy medium... they want to be either extremely ugly or extremely divine... nothing in between.

Wow I thought the Candy bag was a joke when I saw Jennifer had Photoshopped something like it, but I just checked the website. It's rather mind-blowing. I do love candy though...it might be cute on a small, simple accessory, like the coin purse or the medium wristlet. Maybe.

I still think the Bumble Bee and Tattoo prints are a couple of the ugliest things I've ever seen. I will admit, I think the Picnic line is pretty much adorable!

BoysRsmelly, I totally agree with you, it's either hit or miss with D&B. I love cute "kiddie" stuff, and sometimes they get it right, but sometimes it goes terribly wrong. Thumbs up on the Mini Bubbles!

One of my friends has the candy bag...

I told her she shouldn't have, but she has money to spare, so she said, why not?
