How many Longchamps do you own?

Well, I can add one more Le Pliage to my list. I was in the Longchamp store here in Los Angeles and a new one has just arrived and it's a black/white nylon Le Pliage that has Los Angeles written across the front of it. There's also a matching, zip pouch that can be tied to the handle. The zip pouch costs extra. Although I'm not one who loves the nylon Le Pliages as my collection is almost all leather, I loved this black/white combination and also that it is a Los Angeles edition as I have the Eiffel Tower one from a few summers back and which was bought at Charles de Gaulle Airport in Paris. My new Los Angeles one doesn't seem as large as my Eiffel Tower one which is great as I can use it more as a large handbag instead of a travel bag.
 
Thanks, leathers are not nearly the quality they used to be.
I don't have anything to compare against with but I know exactly what you mean. It's a pity.
You guys think so? I just acquired one and think the quality is superior to what i purchased 15+ yrs ago
I'm a newbie- just discovered LC from a recent trip to Paris, where I bought a tri-quadri tote (white, black, beige) and black quadri wallet. Upon coming home, I discovered this forum and took the plunge last week to get a medium LH LP in bilberry for my everyday bag. I also got the matching coin purse and cosmetic case. Then lastnight I ordered the document case for work. I was a Coach fan for about a decade, but grew tired of seeing them everywhere. Plus, they're just not made like they used to be. Last fall, I switched to MK, but those are so heavy, and I have neck problems. I told DH I'm willing to sell all my other bags after less than a month having LC. It's a new addiction perhaps, but at least I'll be cleaning out my closet and reinvesting! I'm a French teacher who travels often to France, and everything about this brand is perfect for me!

Passed up the EIffel Tower tote though and kicking myself! I don't trust ebay, so guess I'll just have to go back to Paris someday!

Looking forward to chatting with you all....
Thanks for the warning. I was looking at MK line bu after seeing your warning, forget it.

Going to take a break and enjoy what I have for a while, so I thought it would be a good time to post my Longchamp collection.

Your black and white heritage crossbag is stunning. Reminds me of the H Himalayan

ok my collection:
4 le pliage
1 JS tote
1 nendo tote
1 cosmetic pouch
1 calvacade croco crossbody

Thanks for posting and congrats on your croco Cavalcade! I’ve been thinking of getting one too next season. What color did you get?
 
I love my Longchamp handbags and accessories as they are very functional and they're the main bags that I travel overseas with when on vacation. They're incredibly durable.

I have so many Longchamp items until I keep a computerized list. I buy them in a variety of colors, sizes and styles.
* 13 small leather Le Pliage bags of which three are computer personalized.
* 5 medium leather Le Pliage bags
* 2 large leather Le Pliage bags, one in shocking pink and the other in navy blue
* 4 nylon Le Pliage bags although I'm not totally fond of the nylon ones. But, I use them for different functions.
* 6, miscellaneous items like zip wallets, leather zip pouches, and a leather credit card holder
* 7, miscellaneous bags including 3-D bags of which one is a limited edition one with a rooster on it and of which I bought in Hong Kong in January 2016, I think it was. It was the Chinese New Year one. Also, a leather hobo-style bag, a leather briefcase, and a totebag.
* 1 large, nylon, Le Pliage travel bag with the Eiffel Tower on it. A few summers ago, I happened to pick it up inside of Charles de Gaulle Airport in Paris as I was running to catch a flight and lugging too many small bags. I bought the last one in the Longchamp boutique that day.

And....a recently computer personalized fourth, small, leather, Le Pliage bag which should arrive within 5 weeks.

Most of my leather Le Pliages were bought on ruelala and before they started charging sales tax as of April 2019. But, with my large, navy blue, leather Le Pliage travel bag, I ended up having to pay sales tax as I purchased it the month after the added-sales-tax law had gone into effect.


Well, I can add three more to my collection as yesterday my black Longchamp, leather tote bag with the red and black letter cut-outs arrived and I have also added another, small leather Le Pliage, but in a saffron color. Plus, my 4th, computer personalized , small, leather Le Pliage arrived a couple of weeks ago.

So, those are the latest ones along with the Black/White, nylon Le Pliage Tote Bag and zip pouch with Los Angeles written across the front which I mentioned upthread. That one was only available at either Longchamp at the Beverly Center here in Los Angeles or at Longchamp at SouthCoast Plaza in Costa Mesa (Orange County).
 
Just two in my happy little family.

1 Black Large Le Pliage Tote that I've loved since 2007
1 Jeremy Scott TV Screens Tote that I bought secondhand this year

I've taken the Le Pliage so many places and countries. It's just roomy enough for my essentials and even after all these years looks really sharp! A little peeling on the interior and a little corner wear, but still strong as ever. The zipper is so dependable.

I loved the Jeremy Scott Keyboard tote but didn't pick it up because I was worried about getting it dirty and at the time I preferred a longer handle. But this year I saw the TV Screens tote and I liked it even MORE!
 
I'm stepping away from this subforum so thought I'd do an update on my Longchamp collection. Over the years I've posted individual IRL pics of them around the subforum as well, mostly in the "Show Us Your Longchamp" sticky thread. Happy Longchamp collecting everyone. :smile:



@Cosmopolitan I have always loved your beautiful collection and enjoyed all your posts and Longchamp expertise!!! Wishing the best for you and hoping you will be back soon ;) Thanks again for all your contribution here! You will be surely missed! :wave:
