Hi ladies. I am hoping to get a crossbody from Hermes. For those who have either which one would you recommend and why? I have a 7 month old and I am looking for something lowkey and everyday use. Which one is good for someone who is petite (I am around 5’1).

Thanks!!!
 
Mom of 4, baby is 15mo and I wear mini evelyne a lot. I have two and would not mind adding another color. My black in Clemence has been in rain, snow, sandbox etc and still looks great. Price is friendly too! I wasn't a fan of lindy but it has been growing on me! Have fun shopping.
 
+1 for evelyne tpm. It's just my essentials I carry (cardholder, phone, etc.) - especially with a shaper, it doesnt fit much else. If you're wanting to put anything in, I would recommend Lindy - I think it holds more.

The Evie TPM is easy to wear as it lies flat against the body, but because of that it doesn’t hold nearly as much as the Mini Lindy. It is fine for phone, keys, cards, maybe a lip balm. You can kind of squeeze a Kindle in. I have four LOL!
The ML falls different ways on different people. I am your height and slim, and it’s a touch long on me but works. You may or may not like the more bulky Lindy shape. It will hold more, and is better if you have small but bulky items that will bulge in a flat bag. I use a Loewe mini puzzle instead of a Mini Lindy, but the ML will hold a bit more.
 
I had a mini E but sold it eventually because it didn’t hold enough for me - but essentials like phone, keys and a card holder will fit for a quick in and out.

I love my mini L, it’s my most carried as it’s casual, hands free and can hold a lot! Sometimes I throw my son’s toy in there lol

Both are hands free/crossbody, low key but like another member mentioned above, the mini E will lay flat towards your body and mini L is like a little box that will stick out slightly but it’s small enough not to be bulky.

The mini L is approx. 3x the cost of the mini E retail and where I’m from the mini L is way harder to get

So for me when I’m considering would be how much you want to carry, style, budget, obtainability
