The Net-A-Porter end-year sale is on and I'm debating between the Crimson and Cobalt Blue bag (since both are on sale).



It's the large on sale and I'm 5'1, so I'm afraid it'll be too big for me. But I measured it against my Michael Kors Jet Set Tote (the one that fits a 15" MBP) and it seems to be around the same size (or it's just me?!?!).



Help me decide on the color and whether the size would be too big for me please :( The Crimson seems classier and easier to match, btu the Cobalt is cuter. My MK is in maroon... I'm 22yo and a designer!



Help!!! Thank you!!! :D


I think the large will be to big for your height. I saw a YouTube video of a girl that was 5'8 and the bag looked big on her. For you I would recommend the medium even the mini depending on what daily use you will give the bag.
 
If your MK, which is the similar style, is maroon then I would go with the cobalt blue. The blue is really pretty and you can see others on here that have bought it.

I personally thought that the large was too big after seeing the medium in person but if you have a bag similar to it that is the same size and you like it then it should be fine. I just have too many big bags.

Hope this helps!

Yes the Cobalt Blue is gorgeous!

Thank you, it helped. But I was just worried my measurements were wrong... Because the MK wasn't that big on me...

Thanks again!

Thanks for the advice! Gah, I am so tired of my bag search cus of my height... but yes I guess I was just in denial... It really is quite large. Idk if I measured my MK correctly...

Was already going to go for the Mulberry Dorset Tote in medium and in burnt orange but it was already taken down from NAP.

Think no bag for me this year... The search continues...

Thanks!
 
I think both are awesome, not to question the taupe will be easier to match and the red will be a nice pop of color. I think it depends on what you want the bag for as medium and mini are a world of difference! I've read that in the medium you can fit documents, iPad, and that the mini Pashli fits just your essentials maybe a nice to got out shipping bag? I just ordered a mini pashli because I loved the color I chose and also since I'm just 4'11 so there is no way I can pull a medium without it looking like a briefcase on me lol but if you are 5'5 you can totally pull it off, I say it depends on your needs. If I was you I would go for the medium in taupe :)
Thanks for your advice:)
 
I finally bought one today after eyeing it up for ages! I got the cobalt on sale at net a porter today!! So excited! I know for sure the large is going to look massive on me since I'm only 5ft3 but I've been buying small bags recently! Tine for a change to the oversized look! Will defo post some pics when it comes!
 
Well, I took my pashli out for the first time tonight....love her!! Here are some modeling pics :)
