Default Legacy comparison pics for MOMOFGIRLS...

Here ya go... I've shown size comparision pics between the slim tote and the Thompson top handle as well as the Gigi I'm currently carrying.

The exact measurements for the slim tote are 14.24" (W) x 14.75" (H) x ~2" (D). As you can see, it's a bit smaller than the Gigi.

I hope this helps!! I'm sorry...I forgot to snap pics with my stuff in it, so I will move the crap over to the slim tote and do more photos shortly. If there are any other bags you want me to photo for comparison (and I have the bag), let me know and I'll do it!!

I didn't realize how big the Gigi was. My friend has it, but she is 5' 11" so it didn't seem that big on her!

Baglady, what is the color name for your top handle? I really like it! Does it scratch easily?

These are on the Japan site and just recently in the outlets. Natural is the color. I grabbed one also but at full price and absolutely love it! The inside is Legacy Stripes!!!

There is also a Thompson Slim Tote and hobo in the same natural color with the flower.

Oh, thanks so much everyone! This was an old thread, so I didn't realize there would be posts!

Crylater3, that's hilarious!!! That's totally something I would read too...or worse, WRITE out, lol! It scared me because I thought I made a typo!!

Cverhoff, yes, that's the floral Thompson natural vachetta bag. It definitely does scratch very easily. Mine was carefully conditioned, and even more carefully sprayed (since I had to use Apple spray). I carried it for one weekend and had no problems with it, though, but it's a very high maintenance bag. As Lisa Lisa said, they also have the slim tote as well as the hobo versions. There is also a natural regular Thompson slim tote that I almost bought as well, but I went with this bag instead since I didn't have anything like it!

Jen...the Gigi IS definitely HUGE!! However, it works pretty well on the shoulder. I can't pull it off using it as a tote on the arm, though. It was a bag I also passed on a while because of the size, but I loved it so much I finally bought one...and then another, and another...and the list goes on! I really love it as both a tote and every day bag!!

Thanks again, everyone!
