I'm also only 5' and 90 lbs... So I struggled a lot to choose the right size for me... Proportion wise if I want carry it in my arms, First looks like a nice size... But the First doesn't have enough room for me as a daily bag..it's just enough to carry your most basic stuff like wallet, cell etc... I thought of getting the Town, but imo the cross-body type kinda weighs me down because I'm so short... So I wasnt sold on Town...
So at the end, I had to go with the City because I like the size and the rose gold combo, but honestly the giant hardwares look huge on me :D:D and I tried to carry the City in my Arms, it doesn't look as nice (proportion wise) as the First on me uggggghhh...
Well i guess I'm gonna carry my City on the shoulder which looks fine and comfortable, rather than carrying the handles ;)

Maybe I should've gone with Twiggy... But didn't see any Twiggy with rose gold combo... Does any of you know whether the Twiggy comes is rose gold hardwares at all??

Do you guys think the Giant City looks weird on a very petite girl? Need your opinion pleaseee so next time i know for sure which style to choose...
Thank you ladies, your opinions very much appreciated ;);)

hi ladies, anyone with Courier, Velo, Day?

Want to know how courier feels compared to Day/Velo.. read in other threads that Courier wraps around body nicely :) i think Courier's a plus cuz of the adjustable strap.. I have a Velo and Day.. i usually double-loop my Velo strap and carry it on shoulder.. i love roomy bags..

thanks in advance :D
 
^^I'm too lazy to dig out my bags to take pics, but you can use these pics as a gauge - the same laptop is featured against all three bags, so you can get a feel of the sizes.

Okay I got my Town in today so I took a few shots for the comparison thread!

Here is the Town VS. City

And Town VS. Velo

I read it on here in several places the strap for the Town is longer than the Velo. I even thought the strap on the Town was shorter than the Velo because of where i sits on me while wearing it cross body. But I was wrong I didn't believe it till I laid them out bale to bale the Towns strap was longer. I think maybe it felt shorter because it's a smaller bag and isn't as deep as the Velo.
 
I forgot to post the what I had inside my Town to give you a idea of how much it can hold. My bag was full to the brim no spare room. Love that it has a cell phone pocket. I don't know why Bal doesn't have them in all their handbags.

Thank you for these photos. I'm thinking of purchasing a macbook air so this was helpful to see. It seems like it would fit fine in my shoppers! Do you love your air btw?

although the Work size looks perfect for the 15" Mac... I wouldn't carry it around like this... the Mac is too heavy for the bag... just FYI;)
