I can't make up my mind between Alma Amarante PM and BB. My daughter told me BB is quite small for my frame, I stand 163 cm tall and weigh 64 kilos. What do women here think about BB on women who are a bit heavy ? Would it really look bad ? Please help !

Personally i think its personal preference... i own a BB and im quite tall and always thought it would look odd... lol

I dont think it would look bad myself... it is a tiny bag so you may feel a bit wierd with it... i always kinda feel its a little girls bag haha looks awesome on my 12 year old.

But its ultimateley what you feel comfatable carrying... why not pop instore and try a few on??

Your 5ft 4 which I think would look fine with a bb.

I think it depends on your style and body shape on if it would suit.

I'm 5ft 3 and love this bag ( have two), I like its small. I also suit the speedy b 25 better then any other speedy size.

However My mum is 5ft 1 and the alma bb doesn't look right on her and a speedy 30/35 is better.

The best it to either go and try both on or order both and send the one you don't want back

I think (and again my 2cents) that everyone will have an opinion and the only opinion that matters is YOURS.
Everyone said the same thing about the neverfull pm, and I am 5'9" and I rocked the sh!t out of that little pm.
I also had an alma bb for a short while, I loved how it looked. What I didn't love was how one of the handles hit me in the thigh when I walked.
I have my eye on the Capucines bb, also a tiny bag but the single handle stays standing straight up and wont hit my thigh.
Small bags are in and they are hot!
If you love the alma bb, then you get that bb and you carry it proudly. ;-)

I think the BB would still look great on taller girls, what I am worried about is my body shape. I am a bit heavy in my upper body ( chest and waist ) , My arms and legs aren't big though.

I'm trying to decide between these two sizes myself so I guess I can't help You with Your decision. All I can say is that You're not chubby at all! Your BMI is 24,09 so it's in the normal range.

I always thought bb is so tiny but last time when I was in store SA encouraged me to try it on and put my things in this bag. It fits so much more than I had imagined.
