Bonjour Le Pliage

by Hanzky — Monday, June 29th, 2009 at 11:38 am

It’s only been four days since my last post about a spacious tote bag (Louis Vuitton Totally Monogram) and here I am writing about yet another gigantic bag. As much as I wanted to shift to a smaller and prettier bag and give my shoulder a rest, it’s just almost impossible to leave home without a tote bag. Not in Jakarta where every hour is rush hour. Most of us cannot just go home in the middle of the day before we head to our next activity, we have to leave home early, finish whatever we need to take care in the city and come back when the sun is already set in.

That’s why it’s just inevitable for us not to carry one. In fact, I think big bag is like bestfriend to modern and busy ladies on the go like us. We trust it to carry all of our important stuff, essentials goods and junks. Apart from being spacious, it needs to be light (like we need the extra weight from the hardwares!), secure and low maintenance. Of course, it has to look stylish too and can be used rain or shine.

lp04 My favorite, and I believe, the biggest bag I have to date is the Longchamp Le Pliage in Large. I got it last year for a road trip across central Java. Let me tell you, this bag holds a ton!! It really fits everything and some more. And since it’s made out of nylon, it weighs next to nothing when empty, it’s easy to clean and can take a beating and still look new. Such a perfect everyday and travel bag. The fact that it is foldable makes it a must bring when travelling.

Now tell me what’s your favorite giant bag?

Oh by the way, if I’m not mistaken, Nia, one of our forum members, was offering a custom purchase for this with a lower price than retail. Yay, the perk of being an FD member..:D

my fave giant bag : Ashley from Ciciero Bag…
Biasa gw pake kalo lagi ada dinas luar kota 2-3 hari. Gw masukin baju, laptop 12′ + adaptor, berkas2 kantor, kadang juga dimasukkin sendal.
Tapi gw napsir ama le pliage ini.. But still expensive buat gw… T_T

Sama han sama gw, gw juga py le pliage large ini wrn ijo muda, sayang gw milih wrn muda jd cepet kotor apalagi di bagian seletingnya krn sering di pegang2

enak banged buat di bawa travelling krn pada saat ga dipake tinggal di lipat trus ringan banged nged ..so far tas yg bs muat gede dengan berat yg paling ringan yg pernah gw py.

Hanzky, setuju banget.. Longchamp yang gede emang must have.. Ukurannya sangat ‘pemakan segala’, tapi gak keliatan kaya orang mau kemping kalo bawa itu kemana”.. Love it deh..

Blom lagi pilihan warnanya yang banyak banget dan lucu”.. Mine are in bright orange and fuschia..

Alice: Yang M by MJ itu dipake ade gue, itu lebih besar lagi sih tapi cepet banget dekilnya dan handlenya lebih pendek.

Yekti: Iya gue juga ada Ashley Ciciero, tapi masih lebih besar ini sih, plus liningnya warna putih jadi kalo nyari barang gampang.

Classic: Purple is one of my fave colors (makanya FDnya ungu…hehe)

Juljen: Iya kalo beli tas ini warnanya mendingan yang agak gelap biar nggak cepet kotor.

vr: Yang medium itu yang short handle ya? Kayanya yang long handle cuma ada large and small.

Lil Monkey: Iya..ringkes nggak usah bawa diaper bag..:D

Cherrys: apalagi yang berwarna warni, lebih lucu lagi..:)

Stiletto: Hihi bener tuh, pemakan segala banget..:D

Slesta: Iyaa gue kan beli gara2 elo juga..hihihi…

hehehhee..thank you han, for mention my name pantes gw heran kok ada yg pesen lg.
Anyway, in Paris now longchamp has a big sale for their summer collection.
Too bad the le pliage line is not on sale, they have new range of winter colour, which is darker than the previous season, but more calm, such as dusty blue, light purple and dusty pink.
The ones on sale is Planetes, Xlight and some other models that I cant even remember the name..hehehe..sangking banyaknya.

Wah tas wajib ini! Gue punya yang warna krem apa coklat muda gitu. Long handle. Kalo travelling pasti gue bawa, gampang lipet soalnya.
Tapi pas hamil gue ga bisa pake tas ini, entah kenapa bau nylon-nya bikin gue mual tak tertahankan

Nia: Nah ini dia juragan tas dateng…:D you’re welcome say.:). Yang disini juga lagi sale kan yah?

Utie: Elo punya warna apa say?

Novnov: Bisa buat ngumpetin belanjaan juga kan?..hihi

Kwek2: Ya ampun, kok bisa disilet orang? Dia mau nyopet gitu ya? Untung elonya nggak papa yaa..:(

Rance: Iya gue suka liat elo pake yang kecil. Sebenernya kalo untuk pergi sebntar2 aja yang besar ini kegedean sih buat gue, tapi kalo yang mau pergi seharian dan harus bawa brng banyak nah berguna banget deh.

Nopai: HIhihi ada2 aja Pai, hamilnya mahal yaa maunya bau kulit asli..:D

So far gue cinta banget sama Pliage limited edition yg kayak waktu itu kita liat di M Han, gue punya yg biru tua, L dan long handle. Roomy tapi coraknya bikin terlihat lebih ringkes.

Kalo liat handle-nya kok kayaknya kecil ya (jaitan handle di body tas)…
apa gak gampang jebol tuh handle…
apalagi waktu dibawa Mba Hanzky. Kayanya bawaan banyak dehhh…
kuat bangetkah tas ini?

*tanda2 mulai tergiur*
