hey ladies, so i'm about to use my Longchamp today for the first time....and before i take off the tags, do you think this pink cream color will get dirty too easily? I've never had a Longchamp Le PIlage bag before, are they easy to clean? I'm tempted to trade it in for a navy one (if i can find one) but i think the cream/pink is lovely.... but i just want to know if these bags are easy to clean if it gets dirty. your input would be awesome, thanks!!

I originally wanted this color version but opted for the navy instead because from my experience the darker colors are easier to maintain. These totes can even go in the washing machine (there is a thread about this). Dirt / stains are hard to get out of the light colors. If you want this tote to use as an everyday bag, it should be fine. However, if you want to use it as a workhorse I would recommend exchanging it for a darker color. If you keep the tote do not wear it with dark denim because it will get denim transfer that will not come out. Welcome to the Longchamp family!
 
thanks for your input! well i switch out my bags every week (gotta find a way to use all of them! haha) so this bag will not be used for heavy duty stuff. it will probably be my summer bag since it's nice and light and the color is fitting before i head back to the darker leathers for fall. if that's the case, i'll keep it this color. If i run into a navy one, i may need to get it too. can't wait to use it! i have a cosmetics case and my goodness that thing is durable after the beating i've given it. i can only imagine the handbag has to be just as good.

I can't own a light colored Longchamp because i know i would get an ink stain on it immediately but i love, love, LOVE the cream colored eiffel tower!!!

i don't like the black or navy one at all personally -- but that's just me

maybe the graphite -- maybe

but really the design is so lovely and perfect on the cream bag!!!

:)
 
I went into a Longchamp boutique and saw the Eiffel Tower bags on display, but didn't try any on...anyone have style: 1899346, the travel bag? I think this bag would be adorable as a carry-on but I worry about it only coming with the short handles; it really should come in a travel size but with long handles.
 
How long are these bags going to be available for? I've tried looking for a black one but no luck so far. I'm currently residing in the UK. Only saw a beige one with the white print at store in Bond Street (which was a few weeks ago).

there is no such thing as the travel size "type L" with long handles for Eiffel Tower or any Pliage.

the only way to make similar one is with the custom bag Pliage.

^^I know they are a limited edition - but I don't know how long Longchamp has a run for. GL
 
I've order one in short handle in navy color
I'm kinda confuse with the hardware
judging from longchamp's website, the hardware is more gunmetal color
then my friend own one with gold hardware :thinkin:
 
The Bagshop model is the duffel, with the short handles. I think if it was fully loaded it might be too heavy to wear on your shoulder since it seems HUGE to me! Mine (black duffel) just arrived in the mail - I love it. The hardware is indeed a gunmetal color.
