What about a Barbour quilted tote when running errands or watching your kid’s game in the fall? What does that say?

I used to carry Vera Bradley or Dooney and Burke but recently discovered Barbour after the catalog arrived between my LL bean mailer and my husbands Orvis catalog. It will match the inside of my Subaru Forester (because the outback is just too trendy and young). I am excited to style it with the leggings, knee boots and vest I saw on a bloggers Instagram in 2017

Do people still wear these? I think sahm who uses it as a diaper bag now because she had one when she was in college in an east coast city 15 years ago.

Serious question—do you go out in public ever? I see Longchamp totes all over the place, from Metro to shoppers on 5th Avenue to playgrounds to Rasika.

+2 the Longchamp totes are absolutely everywhere. I think they’ve moved past “trend item” and into “unobtrusive staple” category. Kind of like Uggs at this point.

+1

Before covid, it was the basic tote for commuters.

Personally, I prefer my Lo & Sons OG since I often carry two laptops.

Nonetheless, I still have an adorable Longchamp zipper pouch purchased in Paris nearly 30 years ago. I tuck it inside my larger tote when traveling.

Maybe TEN YEARS before Covid. I haven't seen a Le Pliage out in the wild on a fashionable woman in a long time.

Reread your post.

I stand by my statement. It was common to see at least a dozen longchamp totes during my morning commute from the burbs to dc everyday. I don’t think it was necessarily a fashion choice. I just think it was a basic tote for your laptop, lunch and wallet. Everybody has one…probably purchased a long time ago or perhaps even a gift.

I never see them in close in northern virginia. Where do you live?

Exactly. Comes of bitter and jealous. I'm in my 40s and I have 3 of the "rated" bags. I saved for the bags because I loved the look and knew that they would be classic pieces that were made well enough to last decades. They HAVE lasted decades and look excellent. The way I look at it is that I'd rather have 3 good quality purses, luggage, suits, shoes or what ever over 15 generic pieces that last a limited time or aren't classic/timeless.

Go treat yourself, get a 4th bag and a sense of humor

+1 and some lessons in grammar and proofreading- also PP if you “save them” and don’t use them, of course they last a lifetime.

The friend of a friend who no one actually invited to the party but they showed up, anyway. They like to think they are “being real” but they mostly just come off as confused and rude. They never get the joke and are simultaneously oversensitive and mean in a way that is clumsy and lacks social awareness.

I don’t see them as much anymore but have been thinking of pulling mine out.

Rebecca Minkoff also lands in this category.
