I'm pondering this question too, as I wait for the arrival of my PAB. I've been using PurseN organisers in my Chanel reissues and love the quality. Hoping they'll work in my new bag.

Hi catwoman, so I checked out shoppursen and the dimensions of their large organizer is similar to the dimensions of the red dog bags organizer, so if you don't mind could you please post a photo of your insert inside of the peekaboo once you're bag arrives? That would be so helpful!

Is the large peekaboo too big? I have a chance to get a large peekaboo in a very good price, but not sure if it's too big. I am around 5'5, and 140 lb

The large peekaboo is HUGE. I just purchased one recently and it's a lot bigger than I expected...I was contemplating on keeping it or not as it is a bit heavy without anything inside, due to the hardware and size, but I felt so "in charge" when modelling it in the mirror that I think I'll keep it for an everyday bag as I tend to lean more towards oversized bag looks. The strap helps distribute the weight onto the shoulders if it gets too heavy for handheld. For reference I am 5'7.

I love the light color but I would be very concerned about color transfer. The light colors are also subject to water marks. The bags do come with a lovely raincoat however (shown below). I had the bag in burnt orange and I only wore it twice. When I consigned, they did see 2 small water stains under the inspection light, that were not at all visible to the naked eye. The black is an excellent choice and is also quite suitable for the office. Personally, I do not treat my bags delicately, so these things always factor in to my purchasing decisions. I have a few exotic skin and light color bags that I hardly ever use due to color transfer, rain and other concerns. Now I try to select bags based on realistic durability so I'm not wasting money. Just my thoughts. I'm sure whichever you choose will look beautiful on your arm!

Both of my peekaboos are large. One is burnt orange and one patchwork calf hair. I would not have chosen either at full price, but I got incredible deals on both. I am 5"2" and I am hopelessly hooked on large bags. But with the large peekaboo, some days I feel like it's huge and other days its fine.

The black would definitely be more practical, but only if you don't already have a lot of black bags. The tan/beige one with the GHW and tortoiseshell trim is one of my HG wishlist items! I just would keep wipes handy...and not wear dark jeans with it.

@Audrey_S this is the exact So Black color that you're inquiring about on me but this is the large size. @baiyishang here is a modeling shot for reference of the large size.

Thanks so much! I never knew about the water stain part!! Very helpful to know!! I ended up with the lighter color but understand resale value may be lower if they do find water stains etc ; however I still want to enjoy the bag . I will only use it for the office so hopefully it will not be subject to too much hardship. Anyhow I don't expect Fendi to have great resale value. It was a really difficult choice because I generally go for durability but I chose the one I love and as long as the marks are not visible to the naked eye I am ok with that! Love the pic with the rain jacket too! Thanks so much for your respond and pic it's really helpful!!
