Longchamp Le Pliage modeling pics?

I have the medium one (short strap) in beige and honestly it's a travel bag ONLY. I used it every day for 1 month and the corners are already showing wear...the nylon fibers are breaking and sticking out like fur...*sigh*

It's bothering me big time!

I suppose I'd get another one, maybe in the long strap in a nice summer colour so I can take it cruising but wouldn't want to pay $80 for a plain nylon tote, no matter how much I like it.
