When it comes to fashion and style, versatility isn’t really a word thrown about all too often. Most items are made to look good above all else. Functionality might come in second, but making a fashionable and multifunctional piece isn’t on the top of the list for most designers. Some can afford to splash out on a pair of shoes for every occasion or a bag for everyday of the week, but the average person may not be quite as lucky. It’s for this reason that the Longchamp Le Pliage Expandable Travel Bag needs to be in your wardrobe. One minute it’s a stylish work bag. The next, it’s coming away with you as a weekender for your next vacation.
To look at the bag in its collapsed size, you’d see nothing more than a fashionable tote, ready for use as your daily work bag. Only on closer inspection would you discover the craftily hidden zip insert which allows the bag to transform from day bag to weekender and carry on bag. Once expanded, you’ll find plenty of space for everything you need for a long weekend away. And, on top of that, you’ll look great the whole time, too.
The bag is available in a range of five subtle colors, including navy, pink and black. There’s also a top zip closure for easy access to your things and for a secure seal when you’re on the move. Inside, you’ll find an interior wall pocket for keeping your important items out of view. The bag itself is made from nylon with a rich leather trim and sports a water resistant lining in case you’re caught in the rain.
Depending on your bag’s arrangement, carrying options include everything from double-handed top handles to a removable 16 to 27-inch cross-body strap to allow for easy over-the-shoulder carrying.
Impressively, the Longchamp Tote meets most domestic and international carry-on size requirements, and the smart design makes at-home storage a cinch as it can fold down flat on itself.
If you can’t afford a bag for every occasion or don’t have the storage space to house a carry option for every day of the week, be smart about your purchases with this chic yet multifunctional Longchamp tote.
