Beautiful Victorias, Ladies. I was in the store today and they had a Victoria Elan on display. I loved the design, but not the colour (I believe it was a bright teal colour). After looking at the order sheet for the store, my SA told me that there would be an Ultraviolet one coming in, and I asked her to reserve it for me when it comes in. My only hesitation is the long silhouette due to my height (5'2"). Although I did try it on in the store, I had my H shopping goggles on, and thus was not completely sane...do you ladies think that it would be too wide for me? For reference, my normal daily bag is either a 35 birkin or a 50cm garden party (my gym bag). Additionally, I frequently wear 227 Chanels. Thanks!
 
I have just bought a Victoria Porte-Documents and as I can't find any more pics of this here or on the net thought I would post here for reference.

It is gold with white stitching and I think it is Vache Liegee on the outside and Clemence on the inside. It is a K stamp from 2007 and in perfect condition.

The dimensions are: -37cms x 30cms.

Hi I'm 5'4" and typically carry either a 35/30B or sometimes 227 Chanels. I have a Victoria élan and really like it as a cute day bag. I find it comfortable because of the slim profile and dont think it's too wide, I guess because it's a slouchy clemence. HTH!

What a special bag, where did you find this one? The VL clemence combo is so special.

Jadeite, I found it on ebay. Bababebi confirmed that is was in fact all clemence but I wasn't in love with it as the strap wasn't adjustable so I put it back on ebay. The person that bought it then relished it for 3 times the sale price. Not sure it was worth that but I was happy that I got my money back.
