Congrats!!
Thank you! Found this style works really well for me; especially with this pandemic.
When this is all over, you will find that it is a great travelling piece as well or even as a catch all in a bigger bag or a bigger version of a Wallet on Strap since it's so roomy.
FW2020. The yellow is Honey. The blue is Nordic. The pouch is quite spacious, fits my card wallet, phone, tissues and keys. I do think it can function very well as a clutch.
does the gunmetal hardware hold up well? does it chip easily (especially the zipper pull)? i haven't bought any cuirs since they replaced the silver hardware. i want to get something in honey 
Once upon a time, there was a Mocha Cuir. It was a classic colour. It was beautiful. It was discontinued in 2015. I have one and am missing it as I type now because I'm using another bag this week
And once upon a time, I used to rest my bag on an empty chair. Now, no way!!

I haven't used my Burgundy Cuir enough to answer this question, sadly
Oh my! That's my dream bag! Does Longchamp ever bring back discontinued colors?
I used to have the mocha cuir as well and can attest to it being a gorgeous versatile color. LC does sometimes bring back discontinued colors, just that we won't know when. I hope Emerald comes back as well.
Thank you! I will keep my fingers crossed for the return of mocha and emerald (which I just searched for and is beautiful, too!). I love this bag, but it seems I've discovered it too late! Aside from black, I'm keen on colors that don't exist anymore.
The good thing is that LC does repeat colors and at the same time, there will be other colors that might catch your eye. I'm wondering if you had considered this season's Sienna color? It is a brick hue and very versatile year round as well. You can check out the Fall Winter 2020 thread for pics.
