Default Gucci Sabrina in Python--I'm struggling

I got this beauty at Saks--at 60% off, but I'm still struggling on whether to keep. Gucci girls, what do you think? Here are my concerns:

1) It is so big
2)It is hard to get in to
3) How will the python wear??

Pros--It is so beautiful! :)

oh, itīs so difficult- i haveīt seen this IRL, but i think itīs a little "to much python", maybe itīs the light - if you love the bag then you should keep it - not everyone have a gucci bag in such exclusive look.

It is a lot of python! You are exactly right. I would LOVE the bag if it were a little smaller, so I am trying to make it work--especially at 60% off : )

I think the size of it looks nice on you. I'm just not too crazy about the light colored python. The pattern is very bold and I can totally see the snake [if you know what I mean]. It does look good on you though and the price is incrediable. If you love it... keep it and if not.... eBay?

Hi Leem, I prefer the smaller size. I had the opportunity to purchase the medium after a customer returned at Bob Ellis Shoes. I think the bag is gorgeous. I fell in love with it the first time I saw it. Your bag does look nice on you. I saw the large at NM and I thought it was too big for me personally, I'm only 5'3. I'll try to take a modeling pic tomorrow. I also am concerned about wear. I have no experience with python, this is my first.

Edit: I measured my bag and the base is about 14".

Hi Leem, I think it looks great on you. It is big, but it has a casual look, which you can wear it more often, just like the Chanel vinyl cabas, it's huge, but it looks great! I think an exotic bag for 60% off is such a good deal, you should keep it.

I think the matter is, if you have anything to go with it? I got myself sabrina python sandals, with little pieces of python it is easy to go with jeans or sexy dresses. This BIG python, I wasn't really in love(my sales wanted me to get it)...it looks scary to me for some reasons...I don't know why. So think about it carefully if you have any chance to bring a BIG PYTHON on your shoulder?

I don't really like big bags, not use to them and it feels awkward. That's why I knew the medium sabrina would be the perfect size. I lucked out in finding this one and I wasn't even looking for a bag, nevermind python.

Love the black python - gorgeous!

i agree. I like python alot, however this might be alittle too much. I have the python in the small boston bag and the wallet and have gotten lots of compliments on it. But i think the sabrina python would work if you wear stylish dark colored clothing and makeup.
