I just get what I'm comfortable with carrying. I like the medium sized bags because I need the extra space for my bf's stuff! LOL...and pochettes I'm finding more and more annoying to have b/c they are so small, I use them mostly to organize my stuff in bigger bags. The bedford looks a little lop sided, but thats ok b/c i had to have it and i'm happy with it!

i agree with a bunch of other people- you can go bigger but you can't go smaller. it's a double standard but true...

i'm 5'7" size 2 and i love teensy bags but i don't think they look bad on me because i'm not that big

I'm 5'10 and a size 2, and I love carrying bags of all sizes. It's almost like the different sizes equal different attitudes. I think as long as you're confident then size doesn't matter.

i think a big bag on a small girl ok but a small bag on a big girl is most certainly NOT. i should know, i'm 5'6" and a size 16, you will never see me with a pouchette under my arm - it would only make me loo wide and huge, and that's not what i'm going for, lol. the comparison of the bag to me would not be good. it's all about proportion, so i stay with medium or large bags.

i've seen girls a lot bigger than me with tiny LV or coach pouchettes underneath their arms, and it's just ugly. as with everything else, just buy what fits, y'all!

amanda...i so agree with you. i am 5'5 and wear a size 10 botto and 14 top.because i am busty, i need to carry a large bag to meke me more proportion. for instance i have the LV alma, while its too large for my sister who is my hieght but wears a size 0, it looks great on me.

my husband always reminds me that small will not be noticeable but larger will make me proportioned and make a statement. he also says he loves me just the way i am and after 14 years i believe him
:p
