I have the largest tote and I use it for school. It's nice because it's a good size, waterproof, and trendy I'm thinking of buying the medium/smaller tote because it's such a great size and cute!
i have a question for Le Pliage owners. are these bags 100% waterproof or just water resistant? is there a special coating on the underside of the fabric?
I have the large tote in Hawthorne and I use it for school. However, I try not to put heavy books in it, because I don't want the edges to wear. It has such an understated prettiness about it that makes me feel so chic.

The bag's nylon is waterproof - it has a coating bonded to it on te inside. The leather parts and the zipper are not water proof, but I've gotten mine soaked a few times and the contents stayed dry.
Well, I just ordered my first Longchamp Le Pliage: the LE Eiffel Tower tote in Navy with long handles. My husband and I are leaving to go on a week long cruise to Mexico in a couple of weeks, so that's the bag I'm planning on taking with me. DH and I will be doing a lot of shore excursions that involve water and the beach, so I didn't want to risk taking any of my LVs with me. I think my new Longchamp will be the perfect travel bag. I'm so excited!
It's also great as an overnight bag. I'm going to be staying at the hospital with DH for a few days and I can cram a ton into my LP and it stays light.
