I actually don't find Penelope to be heavy at all. It probably has some weight compared to Roseau, but compared to most leather bags, I find it to be a dream. I love Longchamp leathers for this reason!

According to the German Longchamp site.
I'm losing my mind here trying to have a penelope shipped to the Republic of Ireland. The Irish Longchamp website doesn't facilitate online shopping, it's just for browsing the collection. I tried to order from the UK website (UK delivery only) using a parcel forwarding service that ae based in Northern Ireland (which is part of the UK) and my order was cancelled.
I even have my Samorga organizer here already to go in to my new bag which doesn't exist yet. I ordered the Samorga prior to my Longchamp UK order being cancelled, they took 5 days to tell me that it was.
Selfridges won't ship it to Ireland and neither will Harrods. If anyone has any other suggestions I'd be extremely grateful! I'm looking for the large tote in greige but would also go for a sandy.
You could try a U.S.-based store that ships international, like Neiman Marcus or Sands Point Shop??? You'd have to check their policies carefully though, in terms of fees and whether returns are possible.
Thanks Cosmopolitan, I'll try SPS. Neiman Marcus was a no as well. If at all possible I'm trying to get it from Europe so I'm not liable for import duty which is going to be pretty steep for this bag.
Bloomingdales and Saks were no(s) too.
Edit - that's a nope for SPS too. No international delivery for Longchamp

Interesting. Could be a spring bag, judging by the November backorder date? Weird they'd post it already.
Paris Fashion Week starts Sept. 27, so the new spring LC styles are just around the corner!
Yes, I'm a bit confused because it does look like a spring color.
Did you see the last photo? It looks darker.I see in the description that Nordies is referring to periwinkle as the color.
Could you post photos of your Ebony? I'm thinking of getting it but I'm afraid it looks too brown ....
Are you sure Harrods won't ship to Ireland? I'm on their site now and their site says they deliver to Ireland: http://www.harrods.com/content/shopping/delivery-returns/#4

Sorry for the delay! I am just seeing it now. I won't be with my bag for another week or so...apologies! It is a very dark brown, which works well for my needs. Not too casual-looking.
