225 vs 226 reissue

I’m 5’4 too and just bought 226 three weeks ago; I love this size for capacity and fit on the shoulder and crossbody!
I have the 225 I have to take my wallet out and replace with a card case to fit my sunnies.
I also have an old medium Boy, a mini, and a classic clutch with strap.
I love all the compartments in the Reissue and the double flap. I never tried on a 226. I will say the 225 is my favorite bag.

I need your advice!
I have a chance to purchase my dream Chanel bag this weekend--a Reissue! Except: I can't seem to make up my mind if I should get a 225 or a 226. Looking to see if anyone can share how they chose which size to pick. For reference, I am 5'6". Thank you so much!!
***ETA: I already own a 224 and love it so much, so I'm looking to add a different size to my Reissue collection. I also own the Boy bag in old medium size
I tried both and ended up with 225 but I am quite short 5’3”. The size suits me, 226 looks big on me. Good luck in deciding your purchase

I tried on both as well and ended up getting the 226. I like the extra bit of room and love bigger bags. Good kick on your decision. The 2.55 really is a beautiful piece.
I personally prefer 225 but if you already have 224 the 226 would make more sense. 226 would not work for me since it gets heavy and the chain bothers me, digging into my shoulder. This would be something you might consider. Good luck!! Excited for you
