Question Dooney and Bourke wristlets

I'm deciding between these two on what I want. I don't know if I want the white because I've seen white Dooneys turn yellowish. If any of you have it, let me know what you think about it!

I like the darker one. Won't show dirt and just looks better all around.

I have a white D&B it bag and after about a year or so, it has most def. turned yellow. So, I would avoid all white D&B bags after that. I don't like spending money on something that I can only use for a little while.

i think OXI clean is also a big help in washing bags(depends on what kind of bag)
air is what causes yellowing. Make sure you get the all the air out. Put the bag in air tight bags before putting in containers in storage.

if you want to prevent yellowing dont store them in contact in wood or plastic..

Do you think the oxiclean might get the white out??

I'm also debating a DB wristlet right now. Grr...I'm in handbag shopping mode again. This is dangerous. lol

the oxyclean sounds like murder to the bag to me....I wouldent risk ruiening the bag and just send it in to have dooney clean it.


I have a Darker brown wristlet from them and love it!!! mines the pebble grain leather so i havent had much cleaning problems because it wipes clean with a damp cloth.
