I am the same way. I am handbag greedy! I would love to use some of the smaller bags that I have but right now they are not practical for me, as work is my life, very little outside entertainment that is not related to work so I don't go to brunch or shopping outings to much anymore unless it is related to work. Work traveling and just general business keeps me in a bigger bag and keeps my smaller bags on the shelf unfortunately.

I agree! MZ Wallace does a great brown bag. The clover and the chocolate brown's are beautiful! I wasn't sure I would like the chocolate brown Hayley but I keep staring at it, I am so glad I got it.What a sweet sister!! That color is fantastic...so feminine & fresh!
Just took this for you as I’m using it today for first time...but i see you tried this bag already (mine is the small all leather Crosby) & it’s not what you were looking for, which i can totally understand! This is the max amount of things I’d put inside of it because of slim/flat profile...but it works for me because this is pretty much all i carry. A chanel friend also asked me what fits inside so i included the chanel flat pouch for lip products (just for reference for her on size) but I’m actually only using the MZW pouch for lip products & sunglasses.

Question for those of you who have a Clara -- I have a Janie that I love but is just a *tad* on the small side. I was wondering if the Clara would be a good solution to my problems, or if the jump in bag size was too much.
Officially, MZ Wallace listed the Janie as having the following dimensions: 10"W x 4"D x 8"H; 4" handle drop. I can fit a sunglasses case, a pocket wallet, and a backup phone battery in the main compartment and that's about it.
The Clara is listed as 10" l x 4.75" x 10" h, but the reviews of the bag suggest that it's a lot bigger. So how much stuff can you fit in a Clara?
Alternatively, if anyone has any comparisons between the Clara and a lizzy, haley, baby jane, regular jane, or frankie, that would help too since I have those bags to compare by as well!

If you like Janie’s style..next size up in similar would be Kara..see some on eBay. Holds a bit more without being too big and has that satchel look. Had a Janie and found it a tad too petite. Not sure about Clara..looks bigger. Have several Lizzy bags. It holds more than Kara but is still compact..someone described it as clown car of handbags..small but holds a lot..great compartments..more functional than the others maybe.
In case you forgot what she looked like, this is Kara..maybe eBay or Facebook group
Yeah, i thought about the Kara but the problem is that the drop handles on the Kara are too big for my taste. I really like the "mini handle" look (where it's deliberate that you can't put it over your shoulder). The Kara is pretty much the size of a baby Jane, I think?
I used to have Kara’s and baby Jane’s. Kara’s handles do not fit on the shoulder. She does come with a cross body strap that is removable. She is also quite a bit smaller then baby Jane. Baby Jane has handles that can fit on the shoulder as long as you are not wearing a very puffy coat.
