Ok so I clearly had a brain freeze, I'm actually 158cm!!! Not 128cm. [emoji13] I put 128cm into Google to convert to ft/inch without registering I entered it incorrectly then of course just copied the info across to my post! Still didn't register even after @yodaling mentioned I looked taller!! [emoji12] So yes petite at 158cm/5'2" but not so super petite [emoji23]. Strange thing is I registered randomly while getting ready for work today out of the blue that I had posted 128cm!! So I've unofficially grown since my last post [emoji4]

Thanks! Too bad the rodeo offered was in mm size else I'll grab it in a heartbeat, lol [emoji23]



Thanks! I hope so coz I'm a total newbie, lol [emoji4]



Thanks!
So true, I was so so tempted to get the paon coz it's too beautiful but knowing that I am a denim girl it'll get dirty in no time hence the pick on nuit. Hydra is pretty too but 22 seems too big for what I carry although it does seems to suit my height a tad better.
This is the Dan Uns Jardin Anglais twilly in cw 8. HTH [emoji4]

Thanks everyone!! I'm surprised that I actually like the bag more than I think. I've returned the GM atoll few months back coz the base is just too big for my liking and I thought I'd never buy a picotin. But size does make a difference as I found that 18 holds all I need and definitely looks cute so it's a keeper for sure. I might even consider a 2nd one in light color next time if I found a color like the Rose the or anemone!! [emoji7][emoji7][emoji171] hope H brings back these colors!

The 18 does hold a surprising amount of stuff. I surprised my SA when I bought my 18 by trying all my stuff in it first, when I pulled out an umbrella from the bag I was using (evelyne GM) He said you'll never get that in there too. And when I did he was impressed.

The GM is indeed big cos of its base. I just let go of mine in Rose The. But the new owner loves it so I'm also happy that someone gets to put it to good use rather than I kept it in my cabinet. [emoji5]

Rose the is such pretty color!! But I totally can relate about the bulky issue. I'm kinda having a second thought [emoji189] on whether to get the paon or keep the nuit... don't get me wrong, I love [emoji173]️ nuit as I wear colorful clothes more than neutral but the paon is such beautiful and chameleon color!! [emoji172][emoji170] I'm torn... my gold evie does has a bit of color transfer although not obvious so I'm kinda wary of getting paon for that reason. What would you do?

Bleu nuit is a beautiful neutral and easy to maintain as I do wear jeans occasionally. In fact, I requested for a bleu nuit as my 1st choice for Kelly! However, I need to wait while my SA keep a lookout for me. [emoji23]

If you are afraid of color transfer, do not wear jeans especially when using the bag. Just my opinion. I used to have an LV Speedy (Orangey Red color) and I wore a jeans [emoji158] and sigh...no way to remove it and no spa services from LV. [emoji13]

What a coincidence!! I requested the same color choice for Kelly too (although it's gonna be a long wait) I wear jeans [emoji158] all the time as I'm a SAHM and wear super casual. I think your insight helps tremendously!! Nuit is carefree n especially with picotin wide base, I do tend to bump into corners n such, dark colors won't show these wears/dirt as easy. I'll just admire everyone's paon picotin and settle for my paon rivale double tour bracelet with ghw, lol [emoji23][emoji172]
