The crossbody will be fine for your height, I'm only 5'2" and it's perfect for me. I have the mini Pashli as well which also fits but it's just a tad long, and the way the strap adjusts, I end up having to put it on the smallest notch and there's a lot of extra strap just hanging around. Not sure if the newer models are designed differently .. but that's my only annoyance with that bag.
hey there! I'm about 158cm as well, prolly around 5'2 and the Crossbody sling doesn't look too long for me (take eg, balenciaga's velo). the bag was around my hip area!it's perfect!

Thank you both for your help! I'll probably try them both on in store and then make my decision on which one to get first.
