Ode to the Picotin

All of sudden I feel abit sad that I re-homed my Picotin 26, my very first H bag 2 years ago. The bag was sitting in my cabinet most of the time as I find it kind of big (originally, I was looking for Pico 22 but no luck in getting one then).

Maybe after my Kelly quest in April 2017, I will go on a hunt for Pico 22. [emoji13]

Hope the new owner would love it. [emoji7][emoji28]

Aww...I can totally relate. My first H bag was a Picotin 26, about two years ago too. Like you, I was looking for a 22, but after seeing and trying it on, the 22 felt a tad too small for my size/height. I contemplate on letting my 26 go as I don't use it as much anymore, but haven't been able to do so since it was my very first and in my favorite gray color. Every so often the thought of letting it go comes up, but I take it out and use it and then I change my mind. Good luck on your Kelly quest!

Thank you so much for your kind words, H. for H!
Was squeezed between letting go or not. However, made the decision to let it go. My heart still felt kind of sad though. [emoji23] Its a complicated feeling.

Hi renet, I hope you find your perfect Picotin 22 soon! I have one and it is a very nice size. :smile:

Hi, I'm considering getting this cutie in 18 or 22, does the contents spill out easily for the 18? Please advise. Thanks [emoji4]

Wow excited for you! I don't have any problems with my Pico 18 for things spilling out but I have a smaller size wallet which fits in nicely. I'm not sure if you had a full length wallet how that would be. The 18 still fits quite a bit inside comfortably. The top opening, if you have the strap locked through, can sometimes be a little restricting but would depend on how much you go in and out if your bag. I don't that much, so doesn't bother me. I hope that helps [emoji4]

Thanks for your reply! I carry very minimum just the essentials -- iPhone 7 plus, LV 6 key holder, tissue, pocket size sanitizer and small card case as wallet. I asked my SA to hold a 18 in Gris moette/blue agate for me this Saturday and so would like to know in advance if 18 is enough? Or 22 would be better? I've searched through the thread but didn't see this combo being posted yet.

My first Picotin 18 in Rose jaipur - it really pops against dark clothing!

Love rose Jaipur!! It's so pretty! If I remember correctly (after combing through the thread to decide if I should get a pm or mm) you have a mm in blue agate? Which size do you prefer? Do you mind doing a mod shot of carrying both on each arm? Trying to decide which look feels better although both size seems able to fit my essentials. Thanks in advance, [emoji4]
