Longchamp “Rival / Rodeo Luxe Shopper”

Ok ladies, this is confusing me a bit… On Nordstrom.com this bag is called Rodeo Luxe, and on the official Longchamp site it is called Rival tote. I decided to include both names in the title as to prevent any confusion… It is enough that I got confused, you do not have to. As I said yesterday, you can expect a lot of Longchamp posts from me, and I am keeping my word.

I already mentioned how I am willing to overlook the patent leather if the bag in question fits all my other criteria for SS bags, and this bag is definitely worth it. I do have to admit that I was in a dillema, as there are versions of this bag that are not made of patent leather, but I loved this color so much I decided to go for the violet patent version of Rival in the end. It is simply bagalicious.. That would be the best word to describe the stunning look of this bag. It is spacious, has a whole bunch of pockets (including the zipped pocket on the front of the bag) and a magnetic closure, which combined result in a great daytime bag, you will be able to fit almost anything you want into it without any problems.

The gusseted sides and the zipper details on the front, along with the zipped pocket give this bag a highly modern, youthful feel, which I find simply irresistable. The only problem with this particular version is the patent, which is not going to last for too long, if you ask me. So you can either choose to go with a fabulous color, but risk having to leave this beauty in you closet for a while, or go for the plain leather version which comes in violet, but be certain you will be able to pull it out of your closet whenever you wish..

If you ask me, go for the better color, this calf leather bag is priced at under $1,000.00 and you never know how far will the patent trend go.
