Luckily, Saint Laurent sells it directly on their site and it’s still in stock here! One of my other favorite retailers, SSENSE still has it in stock as well ( here). I bought mine from Saks, but it’s no longer in stock there. The Saint Laurent Rive Gauche tote really blew up this summer – I’ve seen it all over Instagram and it’s sold out at a lot of retailers. It measures 18.7″ x 14″ x 6.2″ so it is quite a large bag. As previously mentioned, I do carry my laptop in it occasionally – which is probably the most weight I ever put in it. I get more concerned for the pressure put on the leather handles than anything. The bag is so lightweight, you never really have to worry about it weighing you down. It’s large size makes it not the most convenient bag to run errands with, but I love using mine when we head out to dinner or when we’re out and about on the weekends. While I envisioned using mine mostly as a summer beach bag, I actually find myself using it most as an everyday bag. It has leather handles and a button closure with a zipper pouch inside. I love that the bag can be worn as a shoulder bag or carried by hand too. The Saint Laurent Rive Gauche tote can be used for a variety of purposes from a beach bag to a weekender bag to an everyday bag. From what I can tell, it does appear to still hold its shape after traveling though too. I would carry the dust bag along and put it in that before placing it under the seat or I’d just put it in the overhead space. Tucking it under the airplane seat would be my only concern because you’d have to fold the bag.

I think it would make a great carry-on because it can hold so much. While I personally haven’t used this bag at the airport yet, I have seen a lot of girls on Instagram do so. I’m pretty particular about bags maintaining their shape so I always stuff mine with tissue paper or packing materials when I’m not using them just to be safe. Like anything made of linen you may seem some wrinkling or creasing if you use the bag frequently and stuff it full, but overall the structure of the bag won’t be compromised. This bag is a structured tote so it does hold its shape well. I haven’t worn it with dark denim yet so I really can’t speak to that, but that should be a consideration if you’ve had issues with dye transfer in the past. I have heard that dye transfer can happen if you wear it with dark denim. I don’t set it on the ground and I usually wear light colors with it. I’ve used the Saint Laurent Rive Gauche tote all summer and don’t have a spot on it.

Here’s my full review of the Saint Laurent Rive Gauche tote and my answers to the most frequently asked questions… FAQS: Does it get dirty easily? This bag has been one of the best summer purchases I made this year and I would definitely recommend it. I have to admit buying the Saint Laurent bag in the linen fabric made me a little nervous, but the linen is coated so it definitely doesn’t wear like typical linen does. The main reason I didn’t go for the Chanel Deauville tote was because I was worried it would get dirty easily and I wanted to buy a summer bag that I could take everywhere and not be super worried about ruining it. I was a little torn between this bag and the Chanel Deauville tote in gold/ivory – which was obviously more expensive and harder to track down. I’ve actually had this bag on my wish list since last spring and after waiting an entire year, I knew as soon as spring hit that this bag would be my main designer bag purchase for summer. I’ve talked a lot about how I carefully make investment bag purchases and why I don’t typically go for the “it” bags of the moment. It’s been my go-to bag this summer and I envision using it as a travel bag through the fall.

I bought my Saint Laurent Rive Gauche tote this past spring and have already gotten so much wear out of it. After sharing my review of the Givenchy Antigona bag so many of you reached out asking me to review this bag next. Today I’m back reviewing another highly-requested bag – the Saint Laurent Rive Gauche tote.
