So you don't think a large bucket will work on smaller girls. I am even shorter (only 5 feet). I guess I won't get a large bucket then.
I'm 5'2 and have the large one in black and Brandy! Love them both and I think it's ok for someone of my height

That's so pretty and sweet a color on you! How tall are you?
Also I saw on eBay (http://www.ebay.com/itm/What-a-Find...034?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2350974fea) the canvas ones seem to have a flap/pocket on the inside? Is this right?
Hanhbui, palmbeachpink, obcessd -- thank you ladies for all your insight on the fittings. unfortunately, despite best efforts, i wasn't able to snag any of the bags (decided on regular bucket though as i'm about 5ft4" & i like the idea of the 'extra' pouch) at the online restock
gotta wait or hunt!
Have u tried going into a barneys new york? Though selection is limited.
I did pre-order 2 bucket bags w them white/royal but due to my small frame it hangs below my bum and there is no way to shorten the strap w/o literally cutting some off and making some holes. So i went to barneys to return. I told them i wanted a mini instead. Simply wrote my name and phone number down. Then they called me when the bag got in stock - pretty much when they get a bag they will call down the list and whoever comes in first come first serve. I missed their calls due to business travel, so i went in randomly to check if there were any that day. I told them i really wanted the mini, they looked up the stock, I love white/royal combo, so they found one in brooklyn store. The SA called the brooklyn store, i placed order then and there in philadelphia store w my credit cards and it was shipped to me from brooklyn. That easy! (Though my narrative prob makes it sound complicated)
The sweet icing is that the mini bucket white/royal from barneys are priced at $495 (i think mg website it went to 610) and bc they shipped to a city w/o a barneys i paid no taxes! (I had to travel again for business so i had it shipped to my destination, turned out no barneys there, so sales tax!)
Aww thanks Hanhbui, it wasn't hard to understand at all and you're lucky!! I don't live in the US but I am traveling to Las Vegas end of next week for business and I took your advice and just made a call into Barneys Las Vegas, but they don't have any of MG in stock. Said only available Sept. 
Haven't found any online stockist with stock either so I guess I will be going the eBay route...

They have them on shop hers.com and also I think I saw some through the PS dept?
I am 5''7.
The regular canvas has two flap pockets instead of the detachable wallet the leather ones have.
The mini has no pocket inside.
If anybody is interested in photos of the interieur and what fits inside my bags I would post some pics.
Yes please do post some pics. I just bought a small canvas and did not know there wasn't pockets inside. I know there aren't any pics of the inside of either the reg or mini on here.

Thank you!!! Yes it is! I had it in Brandy first but sold it because it was too dark for me. I prefer the color of Cammello now but ESPECIALLY over time as it patinas. It looks jaw dropping then! Like a caramel vintage bag the PERFECT golden bag.
Yes! Mine is slowly developing the patina and it just keeps looking better every day!! 😍
