Splurge vs. Steal

SPLURGE
Louis Vuitton Speedy 30
$690
11.8"w x 8.3"h x 6.7"d


STEAL

Dooney & Bourke Classic Satchel
$195
12.5"w x 7.5"h x 6.5"d


Similarities:

- both have the same bowler shape
- both have cowhide leather handles and trimmings that darken overtime
- both have inner pockets
- they have similar dimensions

Differences:

- the Dooney is all leather, while the body of the Speedy is made out of canvas material
- the Dooney is more structured and keeps it shape, while the Speedy slouches, especially when empty
- the Dooney has studs on the bottom to protect the bag; the Speedy does not
- the Dooney comes with a longer shoulder strap, which gives you the option of wearing it crossbody
- the Dooney is wider while the Speedy is taller
- the Dooney comes in multiple colors such as black, navy, red, green, orange and yellow
