New work bag - Longchamp or Herve?

My office is moving a mile from Penn Station next week Chat Icon so I need to replace my beautiful Kooba leather everyday bag with something far lighter.

I'm going old school in my thinking - it's been a while since I've purchased a non-leather bag - so if you can think of anything else, please let me know.

I love both but I personally prefer Herve.

I still have some pieces that are 25 years old. In perfect shape! No kidding!

I have a Longchamp, and I don't like the inside pocket.
It is high up, shallow & doesn't zip so stuff falls ouit. I used to have a le Sportsac which has better inside pockets, but they are more casual looking.

I actually have both from back in the day too but my longchamp (khaki) has ink on the bottom (a stupid pen exploded in my bag) and the Herve is enormous and PURPLE Chat Icon.

I liked them both better when I was younger - I don't love that they're so open on the inside. Heather - I love the organization of Le Sportsac but it's definitely too casual for every day at the office.

Semi-off topic: Does anyone have one of those purse organizers? Chat Icon I'm thinking I may need to get one whichever of these I go with.

No, but I was thinking the same thing. I am just afraid it will make my bag too heavy.

I thin you should get a Lonchamp, b/c they have great colors right now. Chat Icon

Mine is graphite, but I also liked new navy & praline.

I went with that over Herve because I thought the leather made it a little less casual.

I have a Herve I used for work, but I think the Longchamp looks more professional.

I used to but got rid of it since I use my diaper bag as my everyday bag now Chat Icon but I'll need to stop doing that soon, and go back to the organizer. It wasn't anything special, just an old makeup bag.

I have both. The longchamp has held up better for longer looking good.

I absolutely love my Longchamp. I'm thinking of buying another just to have -- maybe a different style/color.
