Default Would owning 3 longchamp le pliage be justified?
I'm in love with the colours of the le pliage totes. All of them are so lovely and I can't make up my mind which colour I like the most. Of course the usefulness and durability of the tote also attracted me to the brand.

Right now I own the hawthorne and the red one which I use for work and shopping because they are big and fit tons of stuff. There is no need for shopping bags or another document bag if I use them. But I'm really interested in getting one in bilberry.

I know I do not need 3 of these bags because I have several other bags. But still, the colours are just so....

What do you think? Is 3 too many?

Of course not! I have red, white, and blue and use them all on different occasions.

If you love them and will them all then it is not crazy... It is much crazier to own ONE bag and never use it

a different color is justification enough to buy more :P like light colors for summer, dark for winter (and dirt on them is less visible...)

there is nothing wrong with owning a ton of the Pliages. I have a bright purple, a teal, a red one and a denim blue one..almost all purchased in Paris(wayy cheaper than buying it here in the U.S.). They are so versatile..I took them to class..to the gym..to the beach..why not have a good throw around bag that you can wear to work, or anywhere really?

hey..if you want them..can afford them, and will love them..there is no reason you shouldn't get them...

I just got my first one last week and its amazing! I never thought I would like such a cliche tote that seems to be everywhere in my area but now that I have it, I wonder why I didn't buy one earlier. Its great! If you use them all enough to justifty it then its not a big deal.

I bought the small red one first when we were in Paris last month, then I saw the Eiffel Tower one, and got it in a larger size in beige. As you said, they're so practical and really not that pricey, so go for it!

If you have the means and love the style of the bag, it's certainly easy to justify the purchase of another.

I only have one Le Pliage and I use it all the time. I could easily have another two and use them often.

I used a black one in college and a few years after. I used it to death and had to throw it out. Then I bought a bilberry one and a chocolate one that I am still using for school. I liked the bilberry color so much that I bought one of the little tiny handbag ones in that color as well. That is three and I don't think I will buy anymore. So I think that its the limit for me. haha.
