Dooney & Bourke Disney Purses!

Disney Baby · 05-13-2010, 05:57 PM

I got an e-mail from Disney Store today and had to check it out. I am not a big purse person but I do and have carried the same Dooney & Bourke black cabriolet purse since 2001 and it still looks brand new. If you go to www.disneystore.com and type in Dooney into the search - they will come up. If they had made black one with just the Mickey head icons, I would buy one in a heartbeat! The ones that they have for sale are a little over stated for me but I still think they are cute. With that being said, if I received one as a gift, I would defintely carry it - it is DISNEY after all!!!

I saw a woman at WDW in January with one of these. Not being a purse expert, I didn't know what Dooney and Bourke was

.... I was just astonished by the price. It was actually my boss who guessed the brand when I described it. I don't know if I'd actually carry this around (if I could even afford it!), but I love the classic Mickey images on this one.

Carol - I like that one and I like the brown - I just would like it in black. My purse was a gift from a friend that passed away in car accident in 2008 - so I can't/won't change it out. I will say that my Dooney & Burke purse has not only been my only purse since 2001 but my job up until the end of 2007 was 75% travel and it withstood all of that travel and shows no sign of wear and tear. I also think that I am trying justify the cost of these purses, just in case I have to have one!

However, one of these purses could feed my family for a week!!!

Along with being a Disney diehard, I'm a purse addict. It's not my fault, it's inherited from both my mom & grandma (there's a story for a layout.

) So, when I was at Disney I caved and ended up getting this bag (the pattern on my bag is a little more subtle.)

and this wristlet

I looked through all the wristlets to find the perfect pattern, so you perfectly see the castle & that it says Disney. I should take a pic of it. I did have a Disney Visa discount, so that helped sway me

and they weren't the expensive ones, either.

I had to look around the internet after I received the e-mail from the Disney Store - I guess they were released in the parks last year and they are NOW available online. I also checked out ebay - but they are more expensive on ebay than the Disney Store. I suppose those ebay prices will go down now that your don't have to visit a park to get one.

Oh yea, when they first hit the parks, there were people going crazy to get them! They were calling Disney, and able to order them that way. But there were only a few of them, so OTHER people were getting angry because the parks were sold out. And then of course they were showing up on ebay.

Oh my gosh, I have seen the multi pattern doonies and think they are great, but I have never seen just the black and white mickey faces - Soooo stinkin cute! I would never get it for myself. Maybe I will tell my mom that's what I want for my birthday
