Help choosing a Longchamp Le Pliage colour

[Winterbelle1]

I want to surprise my friends daughter with a backpack for her upcoming holiday which color will be best? Thank you in advance.

We’re gonna need more information, OP! Otherwise, each of us will just pick the colour we prefer.

what sort of clothes/colours do they wear: Do they favour blacks, neutrals, bright colours?

They like more black and neutral colors. I was thinking a green colour?

Well, if they prefer neutral colours, I would steer clear of the reds and pinks.

I think all black is very limiting, as it doesn’t look as good with non-black outfits… So you could be onto something with the green! Have you decided on a shade of green?

The olive green is nice and still
fairly neutral. What’s lovely gift.

I saw one called sage which looked nice more muted

I have one in the ‘paper’ colour. It was a gift from a friend last Christmas and I like it but I’ve never used it. I imagine it’ll look grubby very quickly.

First decision is classic brown leather or the other colour. I prefer brown leather.

Second, they are very hardworking bags so don’t get a pale colour that will show the dirt.

I think a red bag is neutral, so would go dark red/brown leather, or stick with black with brown leather. Or the olive green top left. Or burgundy/burgundy looks smart.

I’d stick to black with brown trimmings.

I would go for black with brown leather for myself

I have loads of these. I have four over the shoulder ones in red, white, navy and purple. I like the navy best but always use the red so I can save the navy for best 😂 I also have the dark purple backpack which I use a lot and a tan laptop bag which I never take outside.

I have a navy one and been all over the world with it. They are great for travelling. I've been trekking with it and to fancy restaurants with it (after a wipe down).

My DD15 has the navy and she batters it and it looks amazing considering!

Could you give her a card with a hand made voucher in it, then look on line together and let her pick the colour herself.

It’s a lovely present but it’s so risky picking a colour for someone else. Someone suggested red as a neutral. It’s a lovely idea for a present but red would not be any use for me.
