Jumbo too big on small people??

[ronsdiva]

You have to try it on and see. I am 5'3" and while I am not petite (just had a baby 6 mths ago) it was not too big on me. I found the medium too small, but I am looking for a bag I can carry as a day bag. The jumbo had a ton of room which I liked.

well if its too large for you, you can always use it as an overnight bag.

iam 5'3 and sz 4. jumbo looks little too big on me, and the strap is long.

is it really that big that it can be used as an overnight bag?

NO! is not that big, is about 12'L x 9'H, I'm 5'3 and dont think is huge is not small like the medium which 10"L, but I do agree about the strap being a little bit long, but just tied a knot (inside) and is good to go!

I agree with thegraceful1. I'm 5'2 and own two jumbos. They don't look that big to me. Some of my totes are even bigger.

that overnight bag idea had me laughing!! that would have never crossed my mind, haha

I'm 5'2" and got the black jumbo ... works well for me and the strap length is fine too, whether worn on the shoulder or cross body, messenger style. the medium seemed too formal to me... (plus I carry the kitchen sink in my bags!!!)

no not at all. the size is not too big IMO. in fact i love the size.

because of its size i think is a lots more casual than the medium size.

I'm 5'4 and I used to think the jumbo is too big for me, but I may be changing my mind now. The medium/large just doesn't have enough room!

I'm 5'2" and I'm fine with my jumbo. I think if you love the flap style then the jumbo is a great choice for a casual style.

I really want the Jumbo, but tried it on at NM in L.A. and found that it looked ridiculously big on me, to my dismay. Maybe I need to slim down? The jumbo looks so good on Nicole Richie, and I think she's shorter than me (I'm 5'2, 104). Arr.

I am 5'3, 104, and I also find Jumbo very big on me. I don't think a big purse (for instance, baby cabas) looks bad on me. However, I do think that medium flap fits my body frame better in this case. I think the shape and color of the purse does matter a lot.

i'm 5'1 . the other day i tried the jumbo caviar black in the boutique, and sad to say, it looked awkward on me... i tried to work it but it just didnt work :okay:

not too big at all on a petite! i'm 5'1 and mine is perfect for me. actually, the word "Jumbo" is inaccurate, the bag is medium to big, as bag sizes go in general. You know how sometimes Chanel will name a bag a color, but it really isnt that actual color? (for example, the "pink" expandable is more a peachy salmon) well, imo, they do the same with the size definitions on the flaps: Jumbo is not truly Jumbo, like the Cabas or even the GST is..............

I'm 5'1 and as much as I love the jumbo, I tried it, it didn't work for me. It looks amazing on tall girls though.
