Default help needed: Just ordered a brown Large Capri, but is it too wide?
hi, I just ordered a dark brown large capri with 50% off today.
actually i was looking for ROMA, but all sold out. so I got this Capri without really trying the purse on me at all.

I heard some comments that it might be too wide as a shoulder bag. so I am really struggling now.
For BV lovers, who have large capri, do you usually hand hold it or use it as shoulder bag?

it will be super, if someone can share a photo of carrying this bag. then I can have some sense on the size.

Thanks a lot

i posted this picture from bv.luxury@gmail.com before, but this is a saffron roma which i think is similar dimensions to the capri. IMO it is a great size. whether it is too wide for you though seems to be more of a personal thing. the model is a size 0 FYI.

Thank you a lot, Mid- and Doloresmia !!

The pictures are really helpful. Doloresmiam, your saffron roma is gorgous!
After seeing those two photoes, I feel more comfortable with my Capri. btw, I am size 2, so I guess the size should be OK for me. i ordered my bag from Chicago Boutique, and I can't wait to see this baby

I am also waiting for the choco-brown capri as well. I think that it would be a really lovely bag for you if you like a big bag. It was almost sold out everywhere and I took the last piece, but seems like more becoming available due to some who canceled their order during pre-sale.

^ Yeah, I just located a large Noce Capri. It is the last one in the store but since it is a final sale, I am unsure. Any opinions on the noce capri, ladies? Noce is a classic color as well but can this bag be carried on the shoulder comfortably? Help!
