Just bought my first Polene! I had read the PurseBlog posts about it and wasn’t that impressed. But I was just in Paris this week and saw one for the first time in the wild and fell in love! The woman was wearing a lighter blue Numéro Un, and I did a double take. Unfortunately this was in the last few hours of my trip, so I couldn’t get to the Polene shop. So the day after I returned to NY, I put an order in. That was on Wednesday afternoon and by this afternoon (Friday), she came! Absolutely gorgeous in person. A work of art!

So glad you like it. I really like mine. In addition to being beautiful, don’t you feel like it is pretty indestructible.

Now that I have the Numéro Un, I’m thinking about the Mini version. Looks so cute online and in forum posts. But what do you guys think about it on a 5’1” person? I hear the chain strap is long and not adjustable. Is that the case?

I just received my numero un mini today. I think the chain strap is actually a bit too short for comfortable crossbody wear on my 5’7” frame, so it may actually work for you! The bag is gorgeous—I can’t believe how phenomenal the quality is for the price. It’s better quality than my YSL bags!

That is good to know. I have never seen or touched a YSL.

I’m so glad to hear that! I’ll plan on making that my next bag purchase. The minis look so pretty on their website and from the photos on this thread!
