I'm 5'2"... is the WORK too big for me?

[addicted ali]

anyone here around the same height as me? I'm considering a work, I love big bags... but is it TOO big for me?

any opinions would be much appreciated!

TIA!

^^ i'm 5'2" & i think it's a great size

p.s. compared to my courier & WE, it feels small!!!

I'm 5'2" also and I love my work!!!!

The weekender, on the other hand, was HUGE on me.

Hi

Can it go on the shoulder?

Thanks!

I'm 5'3" and the size isn't overwhelming at all.
It fits a lot more than the City, but it doesn't look THAT much bigger....honestly.

Plus, when they're broken in, they just slouch...and look a lot smaller. LOVE them! WE on the other hand looks too big on me to be carried on a daily basis.

Thanks!

I generally wear my Work on my shoulder even with a coat on. The handles stretch when they're broken in.

I am able to wear it on my shoulder also. I couldn't get the City to fit comfortably but then again, I returned it right away so it wasn't broken in.

i'm 4 feet 11 and i love the size!! it can fit over my shoulder but the handles do stretch over time so that helps also.

i am 5'1" and don't feel the work is too big for me. it is a great size to have. try in out in a store to see if the size is right for you. good luck!

I'm 4'11" and slender. I think the Work is too big for me, personally. It looks like the bag is wearing me. However, I have seen it on petite girls on here and loved it on them (which is why I keep trying it on to see if my opinion has suddenly changed).

I got my magenta work a few days ago (see pictures on my thread:
http://forum.purseblog.com/balenciaga/next-hg-05-magenta-work-is-arrived-finally-151660.html ),
I'm 5'3" and it's not too big to wear it on my shoulder

It's one of my all time favorite styles! Not too big at all

I think the work is too big for me at 5'2", but I never carry big bags. I've seen pics on here of petite women with work bags, and I think they look fine, but I just don't like the look on me.

I thought it was going to be too big for me- I am 5'1" and then I tried one on. Let's just say it is now on my wish list for Fall! Fabulous size!!!!!

thanks guys for all your input! I really value your opinions... ok, I think I may give the work a shot... now i just have to decide what color.... which is the hard part...
