Well, my first LP was delivered this morning! I ordered the Dylan Medium Tote in black. I cannot believe how AWESOME it is!

You ladies were so right about all of it- the thick, buttery leather...comfy handles, great style, I'm completely WOW'd!!! I'm a big stickler for quality too and this is nothing short of it so far. My hubby let me buy it as my birthday present. It's about a week early, but do you really think I could wait that long with a LP bag sitting in a box tempting me?

LOL I think I want to add a Gucci wallet to my gift...LOL I've always wanted one and I think turning 30 is a good excuse, don't you agree?

I've actually got another LP on the way...the Dylan Bowler in Cognac. It was such a great deal and I absolutely LOVED the color. I couldn't find a Cognac that came with the right price and style so I bought it too! If I decide to get the Gucci wallet though, I might need to return one of my bags. We'll see! I'm LOVING my LP!!! I'm even considering buying the Zip Tote now too!

I'm in trouble...

Here are a few pics I took. I included one with the bottom insert (since people ask all of the time about the bottom sagging) and also another shot with a tape measure. It's really a great medium sized tote. If the minor sagging at the bottom bothers you, you can probably take a seam ripper to the top of the insert and replace the thin cardboard with a lightweight plastic that is more sturdy. I like it the way it is though!

I still WANT this bag... may I ask where you got yours? And is it heavy?

isabells · Oct 30th, 2009, 08:02 PM

GET IT!!!!!!!

I bought mine at eBags...shipped directly from LP. They had a 25% off sale last week for 4 days so I jumped on it! It's been in my cart for weeks though! LOL It's not heavy AT ALL. Well, empty that is...I tend to carry a lot of stuff so I'm sure it'll be 10lbs. in no time.

Shipping box says 3lbs. but it honestly doesn't feel more than 1.5lbs. to me. eBags listed it as 2lbs. I have an all leather Dooney and it weighs more than this LP. I have only used the Dooney on several occasions (it's predominantly white/cream and the denim rub is awful...I can't relax with it on.) This Dylan I am sure will be used daily with no issues.

RATS... I cannot believe I missed that ON SALE! GRRRR

gin2ham · Oct 30th, 2009, 08:42 PM

Me too..was hoping to get one today but the only color left is olive..

isabells · Oct 30th, 2009, 09:33 PM

Bummer!!! If $50 savings is enough for you though, order direct from LP. Here's a Halloween code I got today... Not sure how long it will last. My guess is through the 31st. Get on it if you want it!

If you can find a coupon for Bloomingdales, they have it in black too!

Enter EVIP4040 during checkout and get $50 off all orders over $250

csre · Oct 31st, 2009, 01:18 AM

beautiful bag!

Ellie Mae · Oct 31st, 2009, 01:21 AM

Grrrr... I am making THIS BAG my Christmas Quest. ON SALE.
Grrrrr.....

olidivia · Oct 31st, 2009, 02:20 PM

I am not seeing any new codes right now(except one 10% off at Linea Pelle CJLP10), but I will keep a look out for you. Make sure you go through Mr. R*********** for 6% cash back or ****** you get 5% either at Luna Boston or at Linea Pelle.

gin2ham · Nov 5th, 2009, 11:11 AM

Hi guys, I just got one at endless.com for 30% off using bing.

isabells · Nov 6th, 2009, 03:32 PM

Good luck Ellie Mae! If I come across any on sale, I'll let you know! I must have picked up one of the few black ones left in stock. I had the 25% discount at eBags and then another 20% off in rewards, so there are good deals out there...just a matter of timing.

Holiday sales coming up should work in your favor too!

olidivia · Nov 6th, 2009, 04:58 PM

Luna Boston has the medium tote in black with an expected ship date of 11/18, use code save30 to save 30% off.

jc0812 · Nov 6th, 2009, 07:33 PM

What do you think of this bag in purple? I'm thinking of getting it with the LB discount. I already have a black dylan zip tote on the way.

mawygrrl23 · Nov 7th, 2009, 12:26 AM

Congrats on your first LP :)

OOH! It's available now? It wasn't the last time I checked LB. Good find!!

gin- Great find, too! Congrats!

jc- I would LOVE to get this bag in purple!!! My top choices were black, purple and scotch. I think the purple looks great!

csre & mawy- Thanks!

My large dylan bowler in cognac came in too! I haven't taken any photos, but I will soon. The only thing I don't like about it is the brown lining. I'd much prefer the zebra print (no black hole) but I think all of their previous bags were made with only the brown lining and I can't justify returning the bag for that reason. I just love the cognac! My hubby loves my bags, too! He told me he wants a leather jacket with the kind of leather on my LP Dylan bags.

This line is a winner!
