Default Bianca Help: Small vs. Medium vs. Large?
Hi everyone, I'm thinking about purchasing a leather bianca bag but it's been really hard for me to figure out the difference between the small, the medium, and the large (I have the bianca bella so no need for that)...

I did a search and came up w/a few photos but I was hoping that people could post pictures of their biancas for comparison purposes?? Preferably modeling photos I'm interested in seeing how they actually look on someone's arm/shoulder.

TIA :)

In my opinion, the small Bianca is way similiar to the Bella in size... it just has different handles. The large is the perfect overnight bag.

I have two mediums and while they are "big enough", they don't overwhelm me... I'm 5'2"ish and about 110lbs.

I am an inch taller than Gimmethebag and have the large Bianca. She is right that the large can be a nice little carry-on, toiletry bag, or small (very small) overnight bag, or good for work if you have to carry a lot, such as a light sweater or bottle of water. I love the large, but it is bigger than a standard purse size. The medium is more of a "purse-y" size, but if you like really roomy bags, go for the large.

You can click on my avatar and see her on the right side. Click to see my photo album. Large Bianca, on the back of a chair, is about the same size as my black Sasha duffle which I am modeling in another one of the pics. Or my red patent Coach Ergo, if that gives you any idea.

I can't get to my pics right now (at work), but I have the medium and it's just the right size for me. I'm 5'3" and slim, and it doesn't look too large on me. It fits on my shoulder nicely, even when wearing a coat.

I am 5'1, and I have a medium bianca, I normally carry large bags, and the medium bianca is about the right size for me, it has enough room for my daily essentials. Size wise it doesn't look overwhelming on my frame either. I would go bigger, but I wouldn't go smaller, if you know what I mean.
