giant flap for travel - what do you think?

[shells]

i just happened to come across this bag and just think it looks cool - it's a giant flap for travel! not sure if it's authentic (have requested additional pics and will post in auth. thread), but it comes from a reputable reseller. what do you think? measurements are 17.5in x 12 x 5 too big for an everyday bag??? i do love big bags...

It's looks good and vintage. I say go for it, if it's authentic.

part of me thinks it might look a bit silly...

hmm... to me, It looks little too big..

Wow, THAT is a jumbo!!! It might be too much weight but then again I like to carry light when I travel.

It just looks cartoonish to me. I love big bags but there is something about that that just looks odd.

I don't want to put a 'dampener' on your lovley find but (if anthentic) do you think the chain is strong enough for the size of the bag and all it could hold?

i think it's fab for walking around.. goes well with jeans, or a dress.. very versatile..but might be cumbersome if it's a giant.. u could be knocking a lot into things..
(which a maxi might do better)

however, i wun carry it on the plane.. my travel bag usually weighs a ton.. i would suggest something like a GST or even a Biarritz which can hold more weight..

despite the size, i dun think the giant can really bear so much weight..
