Looking to get my first Lindy and would love advice from the experts! 
I have a Evelyne 29, Halzan 31, and Jypsiere 28, all which are perfect sizes for me at 5ft tall. Based on that, would a Lindy in size 26 or the size 30 be most comparable to the bags in my
collection?
What is inventory like these days for a Lindy at the boutique?

I have the same size Evelyne and Halzan. I wound up going with Lindy 30. It fits more than the Halzan, about the same as the Evie. I am 5'2" and was worried it might look too big or boxy on me but I was pleased to find it squishes together nicely when carried and looks great. Tied with the Halzan for my favorite bag.Looking to get my first Lindy and would love advice from the experts!

Lindy30 is perfect for me. Im only 1.6m tall but I really like the look, the capacity and the ergonomics of the bag. I have mine for more than a decade. Love it.
I'm 5'1 and I found the 26 to be perfect, so perfect I have 3 of them. The 30 looked like a duffle bag on me. But it depends on how much you want to carry in the Lindy.Looking to get my first Lindy and would love advice from the experts!

My Lindy 26 in beton. I’m not really a big fan of putting twilly but with an exception to this plus I love the colourways from the current collection. Im using my silk fourbi so it still does fold like a dumpling form when handheld.
I carried this Bleu Hydra 26 last week. Love the bright color.
I kick myself for passing this exact combo up. It’s beyond stunning.
I have a question for lindy lovers, please. Since it’s proven pretty much impossible to get a mini lindy at the store for me (SA said to ask for a Birkin instead and she’ll tell me the colors she can do, she can’t make lindy happen at all)…
Is it worth second hand prices? Obviously it’s cute and this is a clubhouse so we love the lindy but would you get the mini lindy at the inflated 2nd hand prices?

Just took off the plastic... Lindy 26 in capucine and evercolor leather with PHW. I have never seen one in the wild, so I had to guess between the 26 and 30 (got it on Hermes.com).
My husband's comment- "strap is a bit short, yes?"
It is a bit short (I am 5'6"), but I am happy with the size as I don't carry too much nowadays and the way it sits under my arm makes it so much more secure compared to my open top H bags.

Hi Friends! So I'm hoping to join the Lindy club very soon, but right now I'm attempting to narrow down my colour options. I tend to see a lot of Etoupe & Gold which are equally stunning, but my heart is leaning heavily towards a 30 in Rouge H. That particular shade of red has always been my Go-To colour and the thought of it in Togo or Clemence leather really makes my heart sing. That said, I'm having a really hard time finding any photos of one, so I'm reaching out to any Lindy Rouge H owners for photos! Huge, huge 'thanks' in advance 
for me, yes. It is really hard though to advise anyone because it depends on personal preference. Perhaps it helps to contextualise and share why I prefer the mini lindy to other mini bags? I tried the Mini evie countless times and always let it go - too slim and too open and too casual. I had the halzan 25 but I don't like how the clemence softens in the middle after a while. I have still a mini bolide, which I really enjoy but it is for formal outings.
The mini lindy sort of fixes what the other two smaller bags didn't offer: it is quite structured so won't lose its shape easily. It can be closed and while it is small it is quite deep, so I can comfortably fit my essentials. I pulled the trigger when I saw it on a fellow mum at my kids' school and really liked how it looked in person. Any chance you can try it on somewhere?
I can’t try on either unfortunately
Unless I buy secondhand with the intention of returning I supposeI do have the 25 Halzan and the mini Evelyne actually, and use both! I love the idea of the Lindy mostly for the look + a tiny bit more horizontal space. Mini evelyne even sunglasses make it bulge which I don’t love.
Thank you for your thoughtful comment, it’s given me more to think about
Glad to read it is helpful. So yes, the mini lindy keeps the look polished no matter the 'mess' in the bag, lol. This is super important to me - and the main reason I can't handle the mini evelyne.I can’t try on either unfortunately

If it is easy for you to return to second hand sellers, maybe that is the way to go. I am not based anywhere where secondhand is easily accessible, so I made some costly mistakes over time...
