I carried this bag shoulder carry with the strap and loved it! Tell me if you tried a different strap below. 🥰

The strap picks up on the brown accents in the bag. Love it.

A strap can truly alter a handbag. I think that bag being so heavy, a wider strap just makes sense. And I love the color with it. Despite it not having the color of the bag in the strap. You can always get another one. I’m sure it helps with the carry. So proud of you sticking to your no buy month. Hoping for your strength. 😂

It really made it so much easier for me to carry. I should have tried this strap or get one that matches a long time ago! 🤣 Thank you Liz. 🥰💙

I loooove this satchel 😍 if Dooney ever becomes more easily attainable in Europe it'd be the first thing I'm getting!

I love that strap with it! They look so pretty together. It looks great on you! I am lucky or strange as I don’t mind the weight of these bags. Thanks for sharing! Peace and love..Suz What ☮️💛

Thank you Suz. I usually don’t care about the weight, but my shoulder has been hurting lately. The strap is perfect for the weight. TFW 🥰💙

Oh my... aren't we glad we got you that digital scale!? I had no idea how heavy these bags can get, and the material being so rugged and resilient just adding additional weight. Not to mention adding all of your daily items to them as well. Very awesome, informative video. I feel smarter today, my love. Great content! *XOXO* ❤

Yes yes I needed that scale! 🥰 The materials used is hefty. Thank you babe. You’re the sweetest hubs! Xoxo ❤️

I think the strap, or any strap, is a no go. The bag is beautiful as is. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I change out straps all the time! I’m with you, the guitar straps are so comfy. I double up my Dooney satchel straps and shoulder carry.

I definitely think the guitar strap helps even out the distribution when I wear it on my satchel ,but still heavy ! Does t stop me from wearing it Love it

Hi Frances! I really do too! I think this is now my go to for the satchels! TFW and happy Friday 🥰

I dream about this bag ALOT but knowing Dooney, I knew she’d be heavy and have been holding back. The fact that it’s 2 lbs and some change empty but almost DOUBLED in weight made me gasp a bit. Really hoping the guitar strap levels out the weight distribution when carrying ❤ The strap is so damn cute btw 🥰

I really admire the look of the satchels but they are just too heavy for me. Even when I limit the stuff I carry around with me. Super pretty!

I have a large in ecru and used a guitar strap that was leopard and it was stunning ❤ Lupus came and I had to give it to my sister in law who loves it just the same as I did 😢 she is still going strong

That strap looks great! Those satchels do get heavy. A few months, I purchased on eBay the D&B Toscana strap (looks like D&B are now selling them on the website). I needed something to even out the weight of the massive Buckley bag.😅

Thank you. That’s a good idea. Yes I imagine that Buckley bag gets heavy too. TFW 🥰💪🏼

Hi Andrea! I love that you showed the weight of the bag empty and filled. I love this silhouette from Dooney, but it's too heavy for me. I even tried the nano; also too heavy. I'm hoping Dooney will release this style in lightweight coated cotton, or nylon. Until then, I'm going to admire it on you! Looks beautiful on you! The guitar strap looks great with your satchel! I love guitar straps with most styles, from camera bags to totes to you name it! Thanks for the video! Great review!

🎉 I have done the same thing as you just now. But when I looked at you standing up with that strap?Get something that matches better.Please because that doesn't match good at all for my eyes and i'm an artist. But I bought at least three Straps even leather. And they take off the weight I hate these dooney straps that they Are now starting to make thicker ones on smaller purses which really makes me laugh. And then I take that nice big strap and I put it on every single one of my bags.

Yes! I was just seeing if I like using this strap first before buying a new one. I like it and plan on getting a few more. Thank you for watching. 🥰
