I love this bag! Thanks for posting all of the amazing pics ladies and gents. I see one in orange in my future. It may take me a little while to save, but it looks like it will be worth it.
 
Hi ladies! Wow, I love all of your beautiful Victorias! It looks like a great under the radar bag. Sometimes my Birkins and chanels attract too much attention. Not every situation is appropriate for those. I have a question about this bag though.... do any of you find that the bottom of the bag sags when u put your stuff inside? What size do your recommend for me? For reference I am 5'2 and a US size 4. Also, would you recommend it in black or a pop of color? Any input you might have would be greatly appreciated. TIA

Hi Luckylove, my size is exactly like you (not now though since i am heavily preggie) and I find victoria elan is really good. Mine is in clemence, and I have been using it for 3 months for almost every day and the bottom does not sag. Very light and easy to grab things. However, sometimes the zipper lock kinda poke my arm. Does anyone have the same problem with your victoria?

Thanks, dxs! Congrats on your pregnancy, too! I hope that you are feeling well! I am trying to decide if my next bag will be a victoria, a bolide or so kelly. Decisions, decisions!!:laugh: Be well!

Thanks LuckyLove. I don't have bolide (hopefully I can have it someday) but I have so kelly 22 cm. The so kelly is more comfortable to wear than my victoria, because the strap is longer, but the victoria is more convenient in terms of taking out your belonging. Good Luck.....

Thanks! I just passed on the so kelly 22 in tosca. It is such a pretty bag, but the way I push it back when on the shoulder, it seemed like I was going to create an a strange crease or bend at the top section. I did not want it to look misshaped. Thanks for all of your input!:smile1:

I have the same problem with my victoria élan. I think that's only drawback th this bag.
