In the same boat. I like the straps this season but I will like something shorter so that I can use the cuir/neo as a shoulder bag. I can take the strap to a cobbler but that will mean taking a whole chunk of leather off. [emoji22]

Geesh don't worry about it I've been saving pics and planning purchases since Paris Fashion Week in March. And I'm already looking forward to PFW spring 2018 in September lol!
It's wonderful to know I am not alone. I like how you plan ahead. [emoji106] luckily for me, F/W usually works better for me so that is surely safer in terms of planning for purchases.
Sidenote: ever since you posted that Red Lacquer Cuir, I can't stop thinking about it.
Does anyone know if Le Pliage badges are sold seperately and can be attached to Cuir already owned or if you have to buy a new personolized Cuir and you choose them then ? So you receive your bag with the badges already attached ?
My SA told me the badges can't be attached to "old" Cuirs as the buttons need to attach to a button/hole on the Cuir which "old" Cuirs don't have. That's all I know.
With my CloverSac base shaper (https://www.cloversac.com/product/base-shaper-for-longchamp-le-pliage-medium-long-handle-2605/), pouches and 1 mini bag organiser, I can achieve some structure in my Small Cuir. I say "some" because it still looks kind of looks slouchy (it will slouch to the tallest and widest pouch) but at least the pouches help me compartmentalise and find stuff.
I have tried the Medium Samorga in it and while I think the structure looks fab, I feel that the Small Cuir is too stretched which I don't like.
I also feel I can put more things inside with my base shaper and pouches approach. Well, that's my attempt at enabling hehe

I fully agree with you. The organiser does its job so well but it does make the bag look bigger and results in lesser space within too. I'll definitely take a look at the base shaper since I do have a mini bag organiser and tons of pouches so it should be a good alternative too. Thank you for sharing as always. [emoji4]
That Red Lacquer Cuir is so pretty but I've decided the style just isn't for me personally. Instead I think my burgundy/dark red choice this fall will be this foldover Paris Rocks bag below. I realize the leather in this line is somewhat delicate, but this would not be an everyday bag for me. I'm not a red everyday bag kind of person lol. It would be a party bag, going out to drinks/dinner/wine tasting sort of once-in-a-while bag.
Has an adjustable strap

I hope they could make all straps adjustable instead of buying replacement straps.
I'm seeing a lot of silver hardware this season, which I love! I prefer silver, but all of the bags I have loved in the past are all ghw. This might be my season!
I know what you mean. I am trying to avoid duplicates in my collection in terms of styles and sizes. I used to own a medium cuir so I know that is too big for me.
Gosh, this Paris Rocks crossbody is a beauty. I especially like that the hardware is either gunmetal or silver, instead of gold. Thank you for bringing this bag into my radar. I will be sure to take a look at it on my next visit. [emoji1]
Totally agree. I'm a stickler about only buying bags with silver hardware. There are some Longchamp styles I like in the Heritage and Penelope lines, for instance, but won't buy because they have gold hardware.
Omg they need to stopppp...it's like Longchamp scanned my head to come up with everything I like! Love the suede Shop-It tote, and the brown Roseau Croco is seriously calling my name. And I'm not even a brown person usually!
