I think there’s enough space for a bottle and book, plus compact wallet, tissues etc. I can put a book (my son’s), iPad mini and a small bottle in my Petit Violette bag. Here’s a pic. Their website also has a video to show what fits in the bag which is accurate and helpful.

Also the bag is surprisingly light weight and comfortable when I carry it on my shoulder. I’m petite like you so I chose the petit bag instead of the regular size. Hope this helps!

Thank you so much for the picture, that's very helpful! I watched the video but I don't like how you can't actually see the inside with the stuff hah. I am very picky when it comes to bag sizes.

I'm so excited to get this bag -- it will be my gift for myself when I finish my PhD in a few months. Can't wait!

View attachment 4670797 My VIolette in grained leather has held up so well; I just love it. I think I need red; I'm about to pull the trigger on the smaller size. I do fill the base of the full size so I hope the red works as a day bag at least.

I personally adore the grained leather; it smells divine and is smooshy and chewy. Just love it.

Edit: And ordered...325 euros shipped to Canada. Just can’t beat the quality for the price. The full-size is so well made and shows no wear. I had a red bag (Polene #1) but ended up giving it to my daughter because I never warmed up to the leather. This is the replacement.

Were you charged duties after shipping to Canada?

Which colour might suit my sporty style? Leo et Violette Le Dalia black lizard embossed or camel lizard embossed?

How has the bag held up? Are there any scratches? How heavy use is it getting? :biggrin: My bags dont get babied at all.

the bag has held up extremely well! The leather is a bit textured so I can’t see any scuffs or scratches. I do not baby this bag either and I’ve been impressed in how well it has held up. It gets used fairly regularly.

the only place I see wear and tear are on the turn lock if I looked closely. But it’s nice the hardware is aged-looking and it’s only visible when the bag is closed.

I’ve had the Dahlia in black for a few months and while it’s not super delicate, it can definitely get scratched up. It’s not as resistant as texture leather like caviar and the scratches can’t be buffed out. That being said, because of how shiny the the leather is, it’s really difficult for anyone else to see the scratches unless they stare and look for them imo.

I LOVE my Leo & Violette bag. I bought the Dalia bag in taupe. I am so impressed with the quality and materials used. I will be purchasing another L & V bag, perhaps the Grand Nova . :smile:

I am now actually thinking of getting the taupe one thanks to your message about it holding up quite well. I am thinking if this might go better with very casual and sporty/leasurewear. Maybe the embossed black is a bit too ”fancy” for everyday wear I already have this Longchamp Roseau as my ”fancy” bag BEC22ADA-4AA3-453A-A39E-B515B2F727BB.jpeg
