I was in the same boat. I ordered Speedy 25 but I returned it the same day I received it. It was too small and littlle girl-like. Now I have to wait for another week or for my Speedy 30 to arrive....

30!!! 25 is way too small. 30 really is the perfect size.

I was looking at these in the boutiques and am petite also 5'3". I like the size of the 25, I also don't carry much. However I found the opening to be small, like it needed to unzipped another couple inches, hard to get in/out of. The 30 was easier to get in/out of. And it did not look too big, I honestly thought it would. However, I thought since I don't carry much the bag would take on a funny shape without the use of a purse organizer. If they made a Speedy 28 that would be perfect!

I have both and love them for different reasons...My 25 is my work/everyday bag and I love love love it!!! Words cannot express how much I love my 25 and have lots of space left after a large wallet, a tube of lotion, make-up bag, keys and cellphone...and still have room for more. Now my 30 I use when I want a to rock a bigger bag...kwim? I wanted the 25 first and listened to others telling me to get the 30 and still went back for the 25...so go with your gut.

when i bought my speedy at the bloor st location in Toronto, they told me that the box would ruin the vachetta so they refused to give me a box.

I'm about 5'7" and have a 25 and the size is just fine for me. I love my 25 and happy with my decision. I think it is a personal decision and you just need to go to the shop to try the sizes on. The 30 appears a little too big on me because I am thin, but I suppose I could wear it and look fine if I was going for the "bigger bag look." I think the 25 is just perfect for me, though. Good luck and choose the bag that you love the most on you. Let us know what you pick!

I was just like you a few weeks ago and I couldn't decide between a 25 or a 30. In the end I got a 30 and I just got it today and I love it! For me it's the perfect size.

I hope you found a good SA at Holts on Bloor. It's actually my favourite LV boutique - I've found the staff to be the friendliest there! What did you end up deciding on? 25 or 30?
