Hello! I use the large LP as my work bag. It is perfect and so comfortable to carry. I recently bought the LP club in medium. I absolutely love the color and the larger pocket inside. It’s perfect size for my purse contents. I’m going to buy one more large for weekend use or travel when I need to carry more than my purse contents. I love both sizes, but I would say the large is more versatile. I also like the look of the large better on my shoulder. Good luck with your decision! I started my collection in December 2018 and now have 2 bags with another order being placed soon. [emoji4]
I pretty much love them all, I have 10 different LP styles and sizes and I rotate often between them and my other bags.
My most used ones are the custom XXL travel bag with LH and the Mini Cuir at the moment.
The XXL I use for work and travel (mostly 1-2 night trips or cruises), and the Mini goes with me to just about all evening events and travel.
LLH follows me to work every now and then and if I have alot of gear to carry I use a backpack and a MSH LP with it.
Small Néo is great for shopping and day trips with the kids, whereas Medium Cuir is my go to bag for when I'm traveling and I need to carry my day stuff. If I don't use the Medium Cuir I take the Mini Cuir and a Pacsafe backpack.
What I like about the LP line is that there's a bag for every occasion and the prices don't break the bank. Even the Cuir line is very reasonably priced when you consider the leather quality and the bag's functionality.

I use a medium SH as my diaper bag (with an insert to organize) and LOVE it for that purpose. I have a couple of small SHs for use in the summer, when I want a lighter bag. And I have another medium SH and a medium LH which I'll use when packing up my kiddo's essentials for short trips. I love the bright colors they come in, and how lightweight they are even when fully packed with stuff.
For me, my fave size is the Small Long Handle (SLH) ie 2605. I just love the flexibility that the long handles has. It's also enough for what I carry on a day-to-day basis. Second favourite would be the Small Short Handle (SSH) ie 1621. I wouldn't say that I switch from the SLH to SSH as the SSH is for weekends when I don't really have to be hands-free tho the SSH is very roomy too!
My favorite is the small long handle. I ordered my first one before ever seeing the size and thought it looked so small. I was wrong because it holds so much more than you think that I bought many more that size. I have one large long handle and rarely use it as it seems so big on me.
I’m going to put in a second ‘vote’ for the medium Club; the overall size and that nicer pocket ARE fab, as shoes+handbags said. But as others pointed out, the great thing about LePliage overall is that there ARE so many size/handle variants, at a ‘reasonable’ (as handbags go) price, which store in a small enough space to make it easy to switch out as your needs change!!
But if I were being forced to choose only one size, medium Club.

I am part of the small long handle club as I don't carry a lot.
I use the large LP and the mini short handle most often. The large LP is great when the weather is bad or I don't want to take a designer bag. I use the mini LP when I want something compact and I'm just carrying the basics.
I'm thinking of purchasing my very first LLH to use as a diaper bag. I really like lightweight totes. Only thing holding me back is....where do you put your phone? Can it fit in that little pocket?
(I have looked at the Club line with the larger pockets but don't *love* the color options.)

I have an IPhone X and it fits in the Front Pocket. I also did use the LLH as a diaper Bag for some time, but I really didnt like that there were no pockets and everything just fell around in the bag.. it didnt Stay in Place...
Thank you so much!! I have a Samsung so I'll measure it compared to the iPhone X.
