Can the middle size of the set hold cosmetics?
You can... depends on what cosmetics and how much.

Tubes/pencils you can fit quite a bit. If you want a compact to fit you won’t have too much space for much else.

examples of things I can put in the medium without it bulging:

Can the middle size of the set hold cosmetics?
And amazingly, I can fit all of these lipsticks inside while maintaining the slim profile of the Kirigami.

And not that I would do this as it squishes the brush heads except for my Chikuhodo travel brushes, it fits all of these travel powder/cheek brushes.

@karman: thank you for sharing the pictures! It’s very helpful. I carry some makeup - small compact, lipstick & gloss, lip liner, and sometimes eye contact drops. The middle can work.

this is good food for thought as I’m thinking of purchasing either the kirigami and an accessory or alma bb de.
- I can use the larger kirigami as a clutch, middle as cosmetic bag and smallest as a cardholder. I’m looking at the epi version. I like the brighter color way as the middle coordinates with my other fuchsia pieces but am hesitant on the larger envelope being light pink...although I would like a bright colored handbag a la brunch bag. I like the black/silver/pink color way too but my Alma BB is in black epi and I do use that for evening...plus I already have a black clutch (albeit it is Tory Burch).

-I want to add a de piece. I would like the Speedy 25B but the Alma BB can be MIF (yes I’m one of those that prefer MIF). I’m thinking of holding out on Speedy to next time I travel outside of US.:rolleyes:

That’s exactly how I plan to use my set. I haven’t used the large or small but the medium is currently my catch all for smaller purses where a mini Pochette takes up too much space. It holds the headphones, nail clippers, pen, etc shown in first photo!

Just recieved the monogram Kirigami set today, and I’m going to keep my headphones in the smallest one and use the biggest as a clutch. But will someone share suggestions for the medium one?
I’ve already got a mini pochette as a catch all and don’t need another pouch for the same purpose, and I’ve also got the 2019 Xmas animation passport holder, so I don’t need the medium one for that purpose either:P And as I love the set as a whole trio I really don’t want to sell it either, so I would truly appreciate any suggestions :amuse:

I ended forgoing the Kirigami as I read the epi version is not as forgiving as the mono canvas. In lieu, I went with a YSL pouch for a clutch at half the cost.

Hey Jim,
Thanks for the appreciation. It’s been a long and crazy month. Sometimes little things like stalking the purse forum and talking about things like handbags and B&BW hand sanitizer bring a little bit of normalcy to our collective new normal! I use the large pouch as a clutch and a crossbody. I purchased a insert from Amazon that works great with it. I use the small one for credit cards when I’m using smaller handbags. I haven’t used the medium one yet, but my plan is to use it for passports when my family travels, as I’m always the designated passport holder! We have a trip to Turkey planned for the end of July. I’m hoping that this is all over by then. Be well and stay safe my friend!
What insert did you buy
