Can someone own Mademoiselle bag tell me is it ok to use as everyday bag?! The SA told me the bag is made from lamb skin so is it easily scratched? Water resistance?! TIA

It is made out of calf skin, not lamb (this is on the website.) I dont think it is easily scratched. Not sure about water since I haven't had mine out in the rain, but overall, I find Longchamp's leather bags to be pretty durable. I don't use mine every day because it's a little small, but wouldn't hesitate to use it as an everyday bag.

As @catsinthebag said, the website states that it's made of calfskin. As for scratching, careless me managed to scratch the front pocket with my fingernail. The boutique used Saphir and it came out but I must have scratched it again at roughly the same spot and my Kate Spade leather polish came to the rescue then. I can notice it at certain angles if I look hard but not noticeable otherwise. The bigger size is good as an everyday bag in terms of size. I don't expose my bags to rain.

Bags from Longchamp's Intempor'elle capsule collection are beginning to show up on U.S. longchamp.com

Longchamp presents a new capsule collection for the fall of 2017

French luxury leather goods company Longchamp is launching "Intempor'elle", a brand new, daringly chic capsule collection for fall 2017. The collection will be available from Longchamp boutiques and online from October.

With its adventurous selection of prints, and elegant choice of materials and finishes, Longchamp's "Intempor'elle" capsule draws inspiration from a chic and effortless Parisian style for the autumn, enlivened by a touch of daring that is notably present in feline patterned and studded models that are a veritable trend this season.

The collection is composed of ready-to-wear pieces, handbags and boots. Key items include an updated two-tone Pénélope bag, studded and panther-print calf fur versions of the iconic "Mademoiselle Longchamp" messenger, and a clutch sporting a winged-horse motif.

In a 1970s spirit, some of the coats and boots of the capsule are in panther-print calf fur, while ankle boots, moccasins and ballerina flats are presented in daringly studded versions.

Black fur, which will be very present in wardrobes for this autumn season, is notably used on the brand's signature reversible coats. Another major trend this season, leather, takes pride of place in a graphic black and white jacket and skirt ensemble.

Love the color! Love its shape too. However, don't care for the front pouch. And wish the interior wasn't divided - I use a purse organizer. The organizer is a game changer for me, I'd never return to switching bags one item at a time. BO=before organizer

I’m with you, especially on the divided interior. The center divider zipped pocket seems to be a trend right now, and I hate it. It doesn’t let me use a bag organizer, or even put stuff where I want it, and too often the pocket is too small to be really useful anyway. I much prefer a zipper pocket on one wall of the bag and slip/cell phone pockets on another wall. OK, rant over!

Well fwiw I really like the divided interior on this particular style. :lol: In my experience, on a top handle bag such as this, that construction helps provide some support and stability to the bag so it doesn’t flop around when opened.

I’ve just never cared for bag organizers. Not sure why one would be needed with a bag this size anyway (its only 12” wide). Oh well, whatever works for you right.... :yes:
