Neo Noe for Petite People?

[lynorbelen]

Hi Everyone,
I’ve been eyeing the Neo Noe in monogram/noir for some time now. As much as I want to hurry and get it, I’m conflicted with it because I feel like the bag would overpower my short-ness. I did try it on in-store. I loved and appreciated it from the front but when I turned to the side, I felt like I looked short and stumpier.

If any petites have this bag, I would greatly appreciate opinions so I can make a decision on what to do. Thanks!!

For reference, I’m 4’8”, 106 lbs.

Have you tried the NeoNoe BB? I felt the BB size is better for my frame. I'm 5ft" nothing, 94lbs

I only saw it. I thought it was cute, but I wanted the monogram/noir canvas.

I’m 5’2 and I think it’s the perfect size. I don’t think it would be too overpowering on someone who’s 4’8.

I’m 5’0 and 112. I have it in epi and think it’s a good size. I also love big bags like Artsy and am eying the Carmel so I might be biased. I think it’s about getting something you’re comfortable with carrying regardless of size.

It's stunning on you! Have you worn this bag crossbody at all? Does it lay bulky crossbody?

Thank you. I did love that it was lightweight and very spacious.

I only wore it crossbody when I needed to be absolutely hands free and it was still somewhat bulky; the leather had not softened yet however it didn't bother me

I looks lovely on you!

aw thank you!!

I'm 5' and had the Noe bb (my first LV). Although the height worked well I found the width to be unworkable on my frame. Like you said, from the fromt it looks ok, but side on, too much sticking out. Because of that, it was always being bumped by people passing and I spent all the time wearing it moving it out of the way or banging it into objects. Sadly she was rehomed and I chose the Alma bb instead, which I still have and use as my everyday bag. Good luck.

I highly considered the Alma BB too at first but I was reluctant to get it due to the Vachetta (I like to wear dark colored clothes a lot and wouldn’t want fabric stains to rub off on it) and I also didn’t like how one handle of each side would ride rip when the bag was worn crossbody or shoulder. Boo!

Thanks for your response, girly! I didn't know that the leather eventually softens over time. (I actually am more interested now that it does lol) Would you say if worn crossbody now that it doesn't lay "as bulky" and more softened to your body shape?
