Congrats! You're so fast! I have yet to see this in store.
Perhaps since this is in ebony, you can use the strap from your ebony roseau with it?

Thanks so much! This required months of stalking the boutique and talking to my SA! It went to another boutique here cos they only have 1 in my country and the people there were called to bring it to my regular boutique hehe. Yes, can try the Ebony Roseau strap tho the hardware colour of the Roseau strap is not dark nickel. Have to try it out. Thanks!

My Mademoiselle Hobo Bag - using it with a Cody Cuir Black Nickel strap as the one that came with the bag is too long haha! Still getting used to this size as the face is more slanted and not as vertical as my bigger hobo one with the single strap. @catsinthebag , I think I know what you went through with the flap and lock :D

Ohhh I really love this one! I love anything with contrasting lining/stitching! Congrats!

In the end, you are right - the Ebony Roseau Heritage strap is the best match! Even thought the hardware is not dark nickel, it's not noticeable and what's more important is the colour match :D Thanks so much for your spot-on recommendation :D

Hi, everyone I recently discovered the mademoiselle bag and love it's look. I'm considering getting one in cognac but can't decide on which size to get.
I'm relatively small and like to wear my bags crossbody so don't want the size that are too big.

I'm hesitating between the
- crossbody (which I think is the smaller size)
- small hobo

I'm wondering if they differ that much in size and whether one or both are too small.

If anyone has any tips please let me know! Thanks!!!

Thanks so much, ladies! I was at a car service/showroom with high glass panels and it was raining heavily outside but the lighting was enough to capture the shot :D The service technician who needed to speak to me sneaked up on me and caught me preparing my bag for the photo. Never mind, the result is worth the slight embarrassment :D

The small hobo is decently generous in size and has the advantage of having a slip pocket under the flap - I don't think the crossbody has this. I'n new to the small hobo (just got mine this week) and have never tried putting stuff inside the crossbody since I don't think its small size would work for me. Maybe you can try visiting the boutique to try out both sizes?

We don't have a LC store where I live, we do have retailers that carry it but choices are more limited so I was thinking of ordering it online. I tried looking for pictures that have the different sizes next to each other but haven't found any.

But from what you say the small sounds like a good size. Thanks!

I have two of the small hobos. They are about 10" wide and big enough to use as a day bag. Can hold a full-length wallet, cosmetic case, mini umbrella, sunglasses, key case, phone, with room to spare (which you can see here in this post). IMO they are basically a mid-sized bag and even feel a bit bulky at times, but they hold all the everyday essentials easily.

The crossbody is about 8" wide and really is more of a mini-bag, albeit a generous one. To carry that size you'd have to pare down from my above contents list; perhaps a phone, card case, lipstick/compact, keys, few other essentials. Probably better for evening/going to dinner, or when you are running errands and want to travel lighter. I like this size too and would like to get one if the right color comes along.

Hope that helps. As @SmokieDragon said, trying on in person really is the best way to go. Here are some labeled modeling pics.
