Smile crossbody bag. One size only. Seasonal style. Honestly, I did not think much of this bag as I thought the bag looked too slim to be functional. When I was encouraged to try it on with my things, I was surprised. It fits all my essentials and also extras like passport and powerbank. I actually do like the wide crossbody strap (very comfortable) and the chain detail though I doubt I will use it as a shoulder bag with the chain (strap drop is short but okay for petite ladies). Galloping rider zipper pull is non detachable. The bag is very lightweight and has a sporty vibe to it. As both straps are detachable, it can also be used as a clutch perhaps or with other straps to create different looks.

Comes in four colours for my country (black, green, plum and pink). There is an orange on the UK LC site.

Roseau clutch. Seasonal colour for smooth calfskin leather. Comes in black and pink.

This is a style that I've been eyeing but my country never brought in the textured Roseau leather version. Only seasonal colours thus far. Anyway, finally tried this on and I must say I'm tempted. It's very spacious. Has six credit card slots and a slip pocket for bills. If you are thinking of using it as a WOC, it fits the bill. One thing to note is unlike the regular Roseau textured leather, this is in smooth calfskin and hence scratches might be prominent and creases are also inevitable. I used to own a pink Roseau box crossbody which I rehomed as I can foresee myself having to take care of it due to the light colour. The bag can be worn in a multitude of ways. Chain strap triple looped as a handheld clutch. Double looped as a short shoulder bag. Crossbody or carried on one shoulder. One can single loop the chain to wear the bag higher. I do find the bag to look better when clapsed but that also means the capacity is decreased vs unclasped. The Roseau bamboo gives it an understated look. I do feel it is versatile enough to be dressed up and down. Good for a handsfree option, going out bag or if you want all your essentials to be contained and using this as a grab and go bag inside your bigger bag.

Sharing mod shots of the Smile Crossbody bag. Between this bag and the Roseau Clutch, I somehow feel this bag is more me (casual vibes) and offers more versatility with the chain strap + long crossbody strap. Both straps are detachable. The long crossbody strap is non adjustable but you can always use other straps with this bag. For reference, I am 5"10.

Epure bucket bag. The navy and white colour block makes this bag very striking.

The small epure bucket bag is really cute. Fits my phone too. Glad to be of help. The zipper pull is very well made and adds a touch of LC to the bag without being too much. I also like the long crossbody strap which has the word logo on it but done tone on tone. It's there but non prominent and I prefer it that way. I know I'll be getting the black. How about you? Are we going to be twinsies?

It honestly really suits you!
Thank you! After trying it out a second time, it does feel like me and I can see myself using it a lot.

Congrats on your purchase. I used to have this bag but in a LLH, in a gorgeous ruby red. The handles back then were so soft and comfortable on the shoulder. I used it as a baby bag for a long time, till it started having holes in the corners. Truly a gorgeous bag. There was this matte gold version, a ruby red, a blue, black and white. It will be great if LC brings back this print.
It’s great to see that others remember that limited edition!!
I still have mine and it must be 15-20 years old by now. Mine is black with white print. I’d love to see this re-launched!
