I think this is absolutely beautiful, especially in this color for spring/summer. And, clearly, it sparked something in you to cause you to buy it so impulsively. I would take a day or two to play dress up with it. Style it with a few outfits from your closet to see how it works for you and whether that joy is still there, somewhere. If you don't rediscover the love that made you buy it and it doesn't bring you joy, only shame and regret, you shouldn't keep it because you won't use it. And, worse, you'll feel bad every time you see it in your closet.

I wonder why you would sell it at a loss on Vestiaire, though, when surely you're within the window to return it?

Thanks for the kind words! I got her at the outlet and they no longer sell or change their bags using their professional Whatsapp business account. I have a return window of two weeks but I should go there in person and this place is far away from where I live...

I think the bag is simply beautiful. This colour will look great all year round and it's one of the most classic lines.

I have 2 Gucci dome bags, a med (2005) and a larger python Catherine (2010?) both ancestors of yours. They are so easy, I still wear both regularly.

Thanks for your words! Even though I love her look (it.reminds me of the Alma but classier) I fear that it could be a bit too formal for my lifestyle (working mom with 2 kids). Gonna try some smart casual looks and see if it works...

Hello! For those of you that have the all leather Gucci Horsebit shoulder bag, can you tell me what the actual weight of the bag is? Gucci has it listed as 1.8lbs, but that seems to be the weight listed regardless of what material the bag is made from. Thank you!

This may be a long shot, but does anyone own this bag? And if so, can you please share what type of material is the outside pocket lined with? I see that the inside lining is microfiber, but I can't find if the outside pocket is the same lining material.

Hi, I was wondering if anyone had seen or owned the men’s crossbody version? I really like it and the fact it’s a crossbody is a plus. I do like bigger bags and the regular version is too small for all my belongings but I’m not sure if the large size would look more like a school bag. Unfortunately, my local Gucci does not carry this bag. Thank you!

I tried it on before because I really liked how it looked, but its structured shape made it look really big, like a men's laptop messenger bag. I didn't want a bag that looked a bit like a work bag or laptop bag. I didn't try it on crossbody-style, because it would cause the bag to look even bulkier.

Hi everyone…
I’m so excited to get my pre loved black leather 1955 horsebit bag.
Howe eye it doesn’t come with the additional snap buttons. Anyone knows I we can get the additional snap buttons in store

Hi! I'm considering purchasing the GUCCI Horsebit 1955 shoulder bag, and am trying to get a sense of whether I like the size. There are not a ton of pictures available of it actually on someone/being worn on the internet. Is anyone who owns the bag willing to share some pictures of it on you? Also, I would love to hear reviews from any owners. Is the shoulder bag style comfortable? Thanks in advance :)

I had a look for mod photo but sadly not. Here is pic of mine and modeled by the stock photo model

IMO, it's not the 25cm length that needs to be thought about, it's the depth (8cm) and that it has a shorter strap. Strap is one for the shoulder or short X-body, but not long X-body (which wouldn't work anyway).

I fell on this thread because I'm considering replacing my LV Pochette Métis with this one (I could plaster horsebits all over my outfit, when it's not bamboo)
The dimensions given on the website are the same between the Gucci and the LV.
Honestly, the bag is far from looking that big on me (talking about the Pochette Métis)
I know I'm not exactly what can be called thin, but don't you think either they model with very short ladies, or photoshop the bag's size ?
Ps: @papertiger yours has a very unusual pattern, well done !
