Bag of the Day: Dooney & Bourke "It: Miami" wristlet

In honor of warmer weather (finally) I decided to bust out this whimsical little wristlet I acquired a couple of years ago. It's the It: Miami wristlet made by Dooney & Bourke. This is my only Dooney piece, I am not really a huge fan of the brand (I'm a COACHie, as you know), but they do make some really fun things, especially in their "It" line. I have debated back and forth about some of their bags covered in hearts, bees, fish, and what have you, but have never owned one. Then a friend gifted me this wristlet.

It's super cute. The wristlet is covered in "summery" print complete with beach bags, beach balls, flip flops, daisy dukes, and other "beachy" things. It is made of a coated canvas with a leather wrist strap and zipper pull.


The inside is lined with (what I believe is) plastic of some form or another. Normally I wouldn't like this, but that's actually the beauty of this wristlet. With the exception of the detachable wrist strap, the wristlet is almost completely waterproof! So it belongs at the beach! It is definitely my "go-to" accessory when going there, or to the pool, or the park.


If I weren't so addicted to Coach at this point, I might be a little more open to collecting a few more pieces like this. They definitely are colorful....and fun.....well, never say never!

My favorite things about the colorful "It" Dooney pieces are the heart hang tag


And the rainbow zipper
