Is the Batignolles Horizontal too big for shorties?

Someone posted about how us shorties (I'm 5'2) look taller when carrying the Vertical instead.

No way..I am 5'3 and it's still sassy!

I'm also 5-2 and love my BH. I don't think that it looks too big at all, and I get lots of compliments on it....

I'm 5'2" and don't feel this bag is too large at all. It's a great size, and comfortable to wear.

Maybe, but I like the look of the Horizontal better. And for a work bag it's easier to get files/notebooks in and out of.

My only inclination toward the Vertical is that things won't fall out and there is less chance of pick pocketing.

Not the BH I do think the BV looks a little funny on shorter frames.

Not at all, I am also only 5'2 ! Somehow I look shorter with the Vertical instead !
