I only have an indigo with poppy orange handles in size 18, but I love the bag, not bulky at all and I can carry it on my arm or handheld. Love the unlined leather inside the bag. Many buy baginserts but I enjoy putting my hand inside this bag and feeling the leather. Since it’s dark blue no need for a protective insert. My only clemence bag, but such a velvet feel in the leather and it’s good in a pico imo to have a relaxed leather. Hope others with the size 22 can chime in [emoji3]
Thank you serva1. I have seen just size 22 im boutique. Sizes 18 and 26 are for me like ghosts .
I have a Pico 22 in etain, Kaya7. It is a color that I can use all year. It is a size that holds what I need to carry with room to spare.
I use a MaiTai bag insert and carry it hand held. If I remove the insert it can be shoulder carried. I don’t find it too bulky.
If you look at previous posts, you will find photos of what I, and many others can fit in their Picos. Hope that this helps. [emoji3]
I started with the Pico 22 in Blue Hydra and this is a great bag and definitely very useful. A long wallet fits, along with your other items - phone, keys, cosmetics. So it is a very practical bag. But I still craved a Pico 18 so I also bought a Pico 18 in Etain. It is super adorable and a very sweet bag that takes on a different look and different purpose. My long wallet sticks out a bit though, but not too much. I am very happy to own both sizes. From a practical perspective, Pico 22 is better. But I still love the uniqueness of a sweet Pico 18.
Can you get the size 18 over a winter/fall coat? I keep wanting this bag but thinking of doing a bright summer colour. But then I go back and forth wanting a neutral. I can't hand carry with kids in tow. Thx!
I can easily carry a B25 or pico18 over,a wintercoat unless it’s fur trimmer. However I carry my pico mostly in autumn with navy outfits, no winter coats.
Hi @lynne_ross , yes you can get a Pico 18 over a winter coat. I can understand your conflict, as the Pico is so adorable that it carries both neutrals and H bright colours perfectly! I initially got the Blue Hydra and therefore I do have a coloured Pico , my 22. However, my next necessity was a neutral and I was really craving a Pico 18, so naturally selected that one in a neutral since I had one in a pop of colour. I think you can't go wrong either way! I am just getting a bit more boring and practical with my bags as of late, and am starting to desire neutral bags, and keep my clothing more colourful. But every time I see a gorgeous Pico show up on H.com, it takes so much restraint on my end not to purchase a third
Thanks! I wear boring colours so my bags are my colour. Glad to hear the 18 works in the winter. I will see what the Paris stores have when I am there this year.Hi @lynne_ross , yes you can get a Pico 18 over a winter coat.

Then I think a coloured pico would be great for you! The Canadian H.com site has had some spectacular Pico's lately, but they disappear very quickly. Until you get to Paris, keep checking the website as you may get lucky and find a colour your truly love

Hi, I love the Pico22. They are easy, especially if you get an insert to use with them. They suit a casual lifestyle, and are nice if you dont use them for travel. They dont pack real easy, due to their shape. Also, some members recommend removing the lock when storing them, to presreve their shape. This is the Bleu Electrique Pico 22, and CSGM Parures des Samourais. 
I agree they disappear very quickly. The Vegas Boutiques seem to have more Evelyns. They have the larger Picos. The Pico 22 vanish overnight.Then I think a coloured pico would be great for you!

I agree with Mimmy. The colour Etain is very versatile any time of year. Also depending on the light, it matches colours like a dream
Actually I find it lighter than say the other H bags which have an Hermes lining and pockets inside.
