Speedy 35? 40? for a petite girl

[iHAVEsprinkoz]

Hi! I registered for tpf way back in april, but I totally never posted. I recently rediscovered my account on here during finals week (great timing..i know ).

So I own a mono Speedy 25 and a Damier Speedy 30. I prefer using the 30, but lately I've been eyeing the larger monograms speedy 35 and 40. I mean I love the look, but I'm afraid that it'll look ridiculously big on me. People already comment on how large the 30 looks on me, but I love large purses.

My question is..

Do you guys think a speedy 35 or 40 would be too overwhelming for my small frame (I'm 5'4" 95 pounds)?

If not, which do you prefer?

anybody?

40 will look like you're carrying a duffel bag around. Between the two, i would have to say 35.

Wow, you're slim ... I mean, I'm 5'0" and 100lbs and everyone tells me what a tiny little thing I am! I agree with Gucci Lover, a 40 would be huge on you. The 35 will still look like a big bag without overwhelming you.

i have small bone structure..everyone expects my rib cage to stick out when I'm in a bikini..but they're like :O when they see no bones.

Thank you for your opinions =]

I wouldn't do anything bigger than a 30 for your size - just too big. I'm 5'2 and have both a 25 and a 30. I think I would look really silly with anything bigger.

Will you be selling the 25 or 30 if you got the 35 or 40? I'm asking b/c if you go with the 35 its almost the same (well slightly larger) than the 30 so what advantage would that have? However, the 40 does seem to be a bit too overwhelming for your petite frame. I'm also 5'4" (but definitely not as light as you on the scale) and when I carried the 30, I felt it was just right. I had tried the 35 and felt/saw the sag in the speedy..that doesn't do much to help/enhance my figure...its the overall look when I carry the purse that I'm after.

With that said, if you can rock it in the 35 or 40, go for it.

no I will be keeping my 25 and 30 because they were both presents from people I love.

I was thinking maybe I could rock a funky look with the 35..frye boots..leggings...and a long tunic..with big hair =]

I'm 5'1 with the 35 and don't care about how it looks... it about what I can carry in it

 

[csewallh]

im 5'3 and anything bigger than the 30 is BIG on me....

I think a 30 would suit the best, BUT if you're confident and happy to carry a 35 then go for it!

35 !

Try them both on and get what you like. Good Luck.

I'm a little bigger than you, but I love the 35! I think it's a fabulous size--big, but fab

Ditto! 5'2" here and I have a 25 and a 30 and I too think it would look silly...like you were hauling around luggage! Sorry! Perhaps if you were 120# it wouldn't look overwhelming. I can't even imagine 95# and 5'4"...I am 5'2" and 110# and I am small! Oh, and i should add when I carry my 30 my DH thinks it looks like a carryon piece of luggage!
