I saw the XL in white edgepaint today at Macy's. It's pretty huge! I really like big bags, but for me it would be way too large to use except as a travel bag. I have a couple of large Boroughs that I carry as my purse, but the XL to me looked more like a luggage tote as opposed to a business tote. The size reminded me of along the lines of the Bleecker Weekender. I'm sure the fact that it was white made it look even bigger to me though, and to others maybe it would work for business, but for me it's just too big.

Thank you for your response! I carry my large as a purse, but I'm a college student, and I find that it's really handy to be able to fit my laptop, even though I can't carry any textbooks in it.

It works great, but I was hoping the XL would end up being a good size to carry schoolbooks in. I've never been a fan of backpacks, and I think that would make a gorgeous school bag that I could easily travel with. I think I'm going to go take a look at it in person. :)

Thank you! Sending lots of good wishes and virtual hugs your way! I finally got the Borough I've been dying for, the grey, white and gold. With all the discounts it came to $338, almost half price! How could I not buy it?

you are welcome. Prices are great, aren't they? If I hadn't got the while/black bar stripe borough at Macys last Sunday (for less than half the full price), I would definitely get one today at Bloomie.

I saw that this morning too- I am SO tempted to order the Washed Chambray. I already have the Vermillion, but it's different hardware and color... right? :)

Thanks so much for the info! I bought the vermillion - you bought it too right?! It is always such a stirking color when people post pics and you cant beat that price at almost 50% off! This makes number 4.... and that needs to be it for a while for me! I had the sea mist preston in my bag when all the sudden it said it was no longer available... I did find a few stores that have it, so I'm going to try calling after work. Do you think the code for the extra savings is available in store?

Oh yeah they are different :) hardware, color, also leather.
Did you see the moss color too? It is only 300- something, minus the extra discount. It was sold out when I saw.

Yes I tried to buy the Moss but it was "not available" :(
I went ahead and bought the Washed Chambray!
