A good friend of mine has this one. I think the rainbow zipper is the best part of it.

My little sis just bought one of those. I want one too, but am not sure they will stay in style for a while....I like to buy more classic handbags. What do you think?

Ever since Dooney and Bourke took the adorable little duck off their bags they have been on my poop-list.

Re the LV Rainbow themed bags (which these are)...XOXO, D&B, Valerie Stevens, EVERYONE has a variant of them. I thought they were cute at first but I'm so tired of seeing them now that I almost destroyed a few handbag displays today at lunch.

I am not planning on purchasing any Dooney and Bourke since the classic line is no longer produced. I am not a fan of the current styles. I don't like most trendy things and go for a more classic look that will last me years, just my way.

I love my black leather with brown trim hand/shoulder bag complete with a Brown Leather Duck stitched on the front and a gold one hanging on a leather strap on the side, and matching wallet. My sister has the gorgeous hunter green one.

I have one of the signature D&B totes and I love it. Those are pretty big at my school. The ones with the rainbow letters aren't popular at all. I'm really not a fan of them because I feel like it's spending too much money on something that's super-trendy and will go out of style really fast. I'd rather spend more money on bags that I can use for a while.

My best friend bought the white one for Christmas and loves it. I think it's okay, though personally, I'd wear the black one around for fall and winter, and the white for spring and summer
Still a little more expensive for my taste. I'd rather get a Kate Spade or something classic.

So that's what those are that I've been seeing!

I remember when my older sister was crazy about the original ones, that was probably back in the early 90s when they were the thing around here. I can't believe they took the duck off.
