Coach Ruby 25 VS Dooney & Bourke Florentine Satchel | Collab w/

[@BVPDX]

As always, this is such a thoughtful and comprehensive overview of these two bags! Your institutional knowledge on this topic really shines through and I’m so impressed by the details you talked about that I didn’t even notice (and I have these two bags!) Lastly - your kind words really moved me. Thank you Julie! Can’t wait to collab again ☺️

[@agentbagreviews]

You’re the sweetest ever Brandon! Thank you and I feel like you’re so detailed yourself!! Yes! We can do another collab in the future for sure!

[@ella_encantada]

The Coach Ruby was on a sale so I got it. I absolutely fell in love. I haven’t switched out. Such a great bag, and so gorgeous!

[@agentbagreviews]

That’s awesome you grabbed it from the sale! Just in time too! TFW!

[@myluxurycloset529]

these are absolutely gorgeous well made bags - thanks so much for the comparison!❤

[@agentbagreviews]

Thanks friend, feel better 💐

[@NaomiJones-pc3bz]

Julie, your videos are always so thorough and insightful, absolutely fantastic! 🌟 Your comparison of the Ruby and Florentine bags not only provides a comprehensive view but also offers such valuable insights, deepening our understanding of these two styles. 💼 I never realized how similar these bags could be until your enlightening share! I’m particularly fond of the Florentine Satchel for its impeccable quality and design. It's heartwarming to hear your words of gratitude; your sincerity and passion always bring warmth to your viewers. Looking forward to more of your collaborations and wonderful content! ❤👜

[@agentbagreviews]

Oh my goodness! Thank you for your amazing compliments! You are so refreshing and bring such a positive mood to my comment section! Take care! ❤️

[@ChipChoc00]

Thanks for sharing. My favorite bag of all time is the Florentine satchel in all sizes. ☺️💕

[@agentbagreviews]

Oh nice! You’re a big collector then! I’m also heading your direction too 😅

[@Millisascorner]

I really like both of these bags. Would love to add both to my collection. Very classy and classic bags.

[@agentbagreviews]

Thank you dear ❤️

[@snowcrash4286]

Barrel style bags like the Ruby were big in the 80s, almost always hand carried. Dooneys florentine satchel is more relaxed and casual to me.

[@tangiessubtleluxuries]

Great video! I really like the Coach Ruby. It's such a beautiful handbag.

[@agentbagreviews]

You have great taste!

[@AKBBags]

Great video Julie! I’ll go check out Brandon.👍🏻

[@agentbagreviews]

Wooho thank you Andrea!

[@Davids_Closet]

What a wonderful review! At a glance I didn’t assume these bags would be so similar! I love my ruby, and now I’m kinda obsessed with this dooney! ❤❤

[@agentbagreviews]

Thanks so much dear friend!! Sometime you should come over and feel the leather and see what you think. I’m hooked!

[@jbbb7418]

I sent back my ruby, the zipper was a part of it, but also it was to stop me from buying the speedy b 25, and the ruby didn’t scratch the itch. I have three small florentine satchels, the natural, the aqua, and the green. I adore them! The quality, the look of them, the slouch, the capacity, they are just stunning, in fact, my florentine satchels are my most complimented bags! More compliments than my LV, Gucci, and Chanel bags!

[@agentbagreviews]

I fully and completely understand where you’re coming from and that’s amazing you adore brands from all ranges too. How amazing the “cheaper” bags are at the level of quality as your high end bags!! 🥰

[@myPursesuitOfHappiness]

Hi Julie, This is a great comparison of two gorgeous bags. They both look so pretty with your top. Thanks for sharing and have a great weekend. Xoxo 🥰

[@agentbagreviews]

Appreciate you so much Ivana! Ive been binging your videos and admiring your Dooney! I think Im on a Dooney binge! And it may be forever 🤣

[@myPursesuitOfHappiness]

@@agentbagreviews Awww thank you Julie. I appreciate you so much too. I love your collection and your videos. 🥰

[@Handbags-fashion]

Congratulations on your 3rd KZbin year🎉🎉! Luv the Ruby!! I have the black one and Chalk! But that Florentine 🤩🤩!!

[@agentbagreviews]

Thanks so much dear friend!

[@AisafromAsia]

Oh my goodness me! These bags are absolutely stunning! Unfortunately we don't have a D&B store or boutique in Australia but I believe we can order online. It would be nice if I can see and touch the bag in person and I'm still hunting for the leather Ruby satchel 😊 I'm following Brandon already here in YT before I watch this video, he's lovely. And congratulations Julie and happy 3rd anniversary to you! More years of fun and great memories to come and, so looking forward to seeing more videos of you and be part of yoir YT journey. Cheers Julie 🥂❤😊

[@agentbagreviews]

Thank you Aisa! I love watching your videos and am so happy you’re cursing right along and getting lots of subs! Your recent collection of Coach video was absolutely the best!b

[@AisafromAsia]

@@agentbagreviews thank you so much Julie, you have been very supportive of me, of my channel and the only person that have reached out to someone like me who's a newbie in YT. You're a huge part of my YT journey and I can't thank you enough. ❤️ so happy that my channel is slowly growing and can't believe people are watching the videos haha 😆 I'm so grateful 🙏

[@erikaelizabethhernandezguz3616]

Love both bags! But more Dooney! ❤

[@agentbagreviews]

Yay!! Agree!! I’m adding more Florentine so keep watching! 😘

[@ezragoggles2460]

Great video ❤ I, of course love both. I’ve had the mini Florentine before. I was planning on buying another one but haven’t gotten around to it. I have the micro & the regular sized satchel & I absolutely love both! I carry the bigger one when I want to carry it arm style or carry more stuff. Both bags to me are so nice & luxurious to me. The leather, the suede inside & just the silhouette of the bags are so classic.

[@agentbagreviews]

1000% agree with you. And you have fab taste in bags! I have a regular one in navy coming in a few days. Couldn’t be more excited! The quality of Dooney is so dang good. 😘🥰

[@YosheaLux]

Hey Julie! I did not realize I missed so many of your videos. I'm sorry. This is a great comparison. I didn't realize they were pretty close in size. I'm like you, I love barrel bags as well. The comparison on these two bags were pretty awesome. Very detail. I enjoyed watching. Have a wonderful day. So sorry I mossed so many of your video. Yay! you hit 3 years. TgAt is awesome

[@agentbagreviews]

Thanks you Deleen!

[@feliciastewart972]

Great video. I need a burgundy small one. 💯

[@rebeccadaniels7046]

New subbie here! I love that you did this video, as I actually had a hard time deciding which of these two to choose and thanks to the sales at both brands, I ended up with both (Coach Ruby: chalk and D&B: Natural). I got the Ruby today and just love her! The D&B arrives Saturday…..more to come! Thank you for this review!!

[@agentbagreviews]

Hi Rebecca! Oh how ironic you grabbed both! Twins on the chalk ruby! And natural is so pretty. Did you get the size mini also?

[@rebeccadaniels7046]

So ironic, right? Actually, for size comparison, I ordered both the regular/small and the mini. I need to see and hold them to decide. One will be going back. They arrive soon! I’ll keep you posted!

[@agentbagreviews]

@@rebeccadaniels7046 please do! Their shipping has been slow lately, ugh. I think it’s the weather. Excited for you!

[@rebeccadaniels7046]

Ok! I got the mini today and I am completely OBSESSED! I ordered this one in pale blue, as they didn’t have the natural available in this size. I was really torn between the blue and the white…I live in AZ, so both would be year around bags! I may have to get the white, maybe in the micro. I just don’t want to duplicate the Ruby, but I think they’re different enough. Anyway, I’m so surprised with how SOFT she is! And I didn’t think I’d like the opening, but it’s not an issue at all. Of course I already moved out of my Ruby and will be giving her a test run to the grocery store, but wow! Why did I not buy one years ago?!??? So happy to have caught your video! 💗💗💗

[@turquoisepurple7sky151]

Wonderful review. I love both bags and glad I have both in my collection. The leather on the Dooney ages so well overtime lile butter.

[@agentbagreviews]

I didn’t know that you owned both? How awesome! Yes I can’t wait to build my Florentine collection!

[@gyrlgeorge]

The leathers are so different, I find them difficult to compare that way. I think the Florentine leather is absolutely stunning. I don’t really like a bag to be too… I can’t think of the word, but like Perfect? My Dooney satchel has red leather inside where you have the green suede. It’s the one that’s made in America. I’ve been watching Jonathan P., as well as Caleb Snell. And now, you! Fun! Thanks for this upload

[@oneroguegypsy]

Thanks for another great video. I have and love my Black Ruby as well. I don’t notice any issues going in and out myself, but I haven’t used her that much yet. I am awaiting the arrival of the DB Florentine Satchel in Natural. I have only seen this bag online as we don’t have Dooney here where I live on the West Coast of Canada. The Christmas sales online were too good to pass up so looking forward to seeing it up close and personal. I’m sure I’ll love it and really hoping it will be a keeper. Happy New Year!!

[@agentbagreviews]

Hi dear! I appreciate you watching and hope you enjoy your new baby! 💕

[@oneroguegypsy]

@@agentbagreviews Sadly, it was a total fail and went back immediately. Some major quality/finishing issues I couldn’t overlook at the price I paid. So disappointed as I’ve only ever seen positive videos and comments on this bag. The leather was absolutely beautiful though. Glad I got to see one in person but won’t be attempting a re-order.

[@jojosluxshack]

Great informative video Julie. Both bags are gorgeous and it term's of the leather quality both bags are on par with each other, both decent and durable leather and well made. Unfortunately there are no more Ruby bags in Aus. hopefully they will bring it back again. Thank you for sharing, have a great weekend 😘❤️

[@agentbagreviews]

Thanks for checking out my video hun. Yes I know it’s sad because I feel like it’s a classic shape that sold so well! sometimes that’s the annoying thing about Coach! 🥰

[@jojosluxshack]

Congrats on your 3rd year anniversary on youtube, I enjoy watching your videos and getting to know you Julie ❤️😘💐 Gorgeous modshots 😍

[@agentbagreviews]

Thank you sweet and beautiful JoJo!!

[@nancywheeler8359]

Ah missed the Coach bag on sale 😢. It’s so beautiful

[@agentbagreviews]

I’m so sorry, maybe they will be on the outlet reserve!? I hope so!

[@aprilbragg1403]

Great video and comparison. I have the Coach one and love it. I don’t feel like it scratches my hand when I dig in it. I usually open it up though when I need something. I don’t like the look of the Florentine one. It has so much going on with the outside of the bag. I bought my Coach one on Christmas Eve and they are now Sold out online but some local Coach Stores may still have them. I bought mine locally.

[@agentbagreviews]

Thank you for watching and good to hear that your hand doesn’t scratch and that works best for you! I still love my Rubies and will wear them both. I do have man hands so that probably plays a part 🤣 take care!

[@aprilbragg1403]

@@agentbagreviews lol have a great day!

[@agentbagreviews]

@@aprilbragg1403 you too!!

[@SuzWhat]

Great review. Both bags are beautiful. I give Dooney the edge just because I’m a Dooney person. Thanks for sharing! Peace and love..Suz What ☮️💛

[@agentbagreviews]

Hi Suz! You’re such an inspiration for having such a beautiful Dooney collection! I have been watching many of your videos. Thank you!

[@lynndupree1205]

I absolutely love the D&B satchel. The straps, hardware, super cute tassels, and gorgeous soft leather make her a standout among all designer handbags. I also love the shape of her, and the famous Dooney "smile" at the fold- down zipper top. I personally don't care for the Coach barrel design because it looks too round on my figure.

[@agentbagreviews]

Hi! Lynn I agree. The Coach bag is cute but has to be worn in a certain way. I like to hand carry it more. The florentine can be worn all ways and lay flatter against the body

[@DaniOchannel]

That dooney and Burke looks like a bag the miu miu did. Very cute. Thanks for this in depth comparison. Scratchy zippers are so annoying 😅😅😅

[@agentbagreviews]

It does Dani! That’s a good point! Yes, I do love non zipper closures probably best. Like turn locks or flaps.

[@feliciastewart972]

What do you think about Dooney zip zip Burgundy satchel.

[@agentbagreviews]

Stunning! But the handbag strap connections don't fall in an area that I like...near the handles

[@KindnessMatters_]

It's my understanding that Dooney hand files their zippers for smoothness. You look beautiful wearing both bags! How do you think these bags compare to the Speedy? TFS!

[@agentbagreviews]

Thank you!! I did do a comparison video of my Ruby 25 to my speedyb 25. It’s a year or so old but still on my channel! TFW!

[@mindyh9331]

2 beautiful bags! I have 2 Ruby satchels and I love them but they are hand munchers. I have considered the Dooney because Florentine is perfection. TFS❤ P.S. I have the same grandfather clock 😊

[@agentbagreviews]

Oh wow that’s amazing! Many people have commented on my clock, they are rare to find anymore and even tougher to find someone to work on them!

[@mindyh9331]

We have a jeweler in town that has someone on staff to repair watches and he also does clocks. We are lucky to have him because like you said, it’s hard to find someone qualified to repair them.

May I ask why you got rid of your Rogue?

[@agentbagreviews]

Hello! I think rogues are stunning but I wasn’t a fan of the compartments. Thanks for watching!

🤎🤎🤎 Your Florentine satchel 😃

Great video as always Julie, I have both bags to, well my dooney is the large size. TFS🩷🩵💙👛👜👝

[@agentbagreviews]

Love that large one! I tried it on at Dillards the other day. It would be a nice one to have. I have a regular one coming in a week! Can’t wait! The bigger ones are more my vibe. TFW!
