Longchamp Large Tote - looks familiar?

[bagnshoofetish]

Wanna hear something funny? This tote is almost identical in design to a nylon tote I picked up at Whole Foods some years ago. Mine is from Joanne Marie Designs and rolls up as well. It is such a useful tote! Hope Joanne doesn't get wind of these Longchamps (I do like the brown one)
Here are the Longchamps:

Here is mine - flat and rolled up:



from what I understand, the Longchamps roll up the same way!

(and yes, I did order the brown one!) They are great bags to keep in your luggage for all the extra crap you end up bringing home from a trip!

I have the brown Longchamp! I love it, especially the way it folds for traveling.

This particular line (Le Pliage) was introduced by Longchamp in 1993. I'm not sure whose came first, but I have seen a bunch of totes in this style that aren't Longchamp. Le Pliages are very popular and well known though, so I'm sure Joanne Marie Designs knows about them!
