THIS is my all time favorite bag I’ve ever purchased! The Longchamp Le Pliage nylon tote bag in Taupe. It’s a light weight bag in a neutral color (it comes in 12 colors) that goes with everything, and it’s the absolute ideal fall/autumn bag. Which is perfect, considering I’ve carried it everyday since October 1st. I ordered this bag in the summer (July/August) but, with restraint, I held out carrying it until October and now I don’t know if I can carry any other bag again. If you’re rough on your bags, like I am, then this bag is perfect for you too! I swing this sucker around like nobody’s business. Like I mentioned, it’s a nylon bag so anything you spill or drop on it is easily wiped off with a wet paper towel and voila! good as new! I’m a living testament to this, because I’ve already dropped Chick-fil-a Polynesian sauce on it twice and there’s no trace of it.
This bag is a lot bigger than it seems. It only has one small pocket on the inside, so the whole bag is a big open space that holds a lot! (If you like or need a lot of pockets and compartments in your bag, this is not the bag for you.) This bag holds everything I have pictured above and there’s still tons of room left. Another big plus, this bag folds up into a small rectangle (pictured above) and snaps shuts for easy travel. You can fold it, throw it in your suitcase, and unfold and use it when you get to your destination. It also comes in many sizes. The bag I have is the medium size. It also comes in small and large. When ordering the bag, you can also choose the handle style: tote or handbag.
Features: leather handles, leather side tabs, zipper closure, leather flap snap closure (over zipper closure), gold snaps and zipper fixtures, one pocket inside, no lining.
What’s in my bag: Forever 21 floral wallet, Vera Bradley checkbook, Lily Pulitzer blotting tissues compact, makeup bag (gift from my friend Lisa), Ray Ban ‘Jackie ohh 2’ sunglasses, pink heart patterned card holder from Target, floral mirror compact (gift from my friend Tiffany), crochet zipper pouch full of hair ties and bobby pins, my iPhone, Bath and Body works hand sanitizer, body spray and body cream, EOS hand lotion, pens, car keys, work keys.
I hope you enjoyed getting a peek into my bag and seeing the essentials I carry around daily.
