Ode to the bolide

Wow, thanks for this. Didn’t know they come in all these gorgeous colors. I prefer evercolor leather vs epsom. Bolide 25 in bleu royal and bleu france sounds dreamy!

I have a 25 in vert amande in evercolor.

So this was a surprise…..I haven’t had this bag on my radar but I came across this for a STEAL and after authentication today by @bababebi I’m thrilled with this new to me 1990 Bolide 35 Noir in Fjord with GHW. View attachment 5684449

Congrats! It’s beautiful. Love the leather and the gold hardware! Enjoy.

I just got the Bolide 1923 in 30 gold on gold! I’m 5’5” and was initially thinking a 25 or 27…am wondering if it’s too big.

what do you think?

Too big for what?

The 30 is a classic (andi it was the only size when the 1923 updated model was introduced).

Gorgeous bag - congratulations and enjoy!

Super gorgeous.
I'm a very short person (5’1”) and love to carry bigger bags.

It's lovely, but we would have to see it on for final judgment on size.

I was torn between a 31 and 27 for a while and just ordered the 27. I think the 30 is a perfect size! I still sort of want the 31 ha. Congrats!

30 is perfect. I tried a 27 and didn't get it because it was too small for me to comfortably hold everything I need.

Looks great on you! Different sizes serve different purposes. Hard to compare a 30 and a 25. You can have both! Why not?

So true I personally never hopped on the mini bag trend (mini K’s and mini Bolides are cute but not for me) but also don’t want a size that overwhelms my frame.

Congratulations @in_mybag on your beautiful Bolide I think it looks perfect on you. I'm 5'1" and wear size 31. I tried on the 27 in the store but I much prefer the bigger size. Plus it was in epsom and I prefer Clemence. Enjoy wearing yours in good health and happiness
