i'm 5'1" and like the 30... i got the largest purseket to go inside and it hold up teh walls nicely..gives it structure.. I think perhaps what makes a 30 look bigger is when it sags etc so it acutally enlongates teh hieght of the bag by a good deal.. so if you can find a way to keep it pretty well structured, the 30 is cute on us shorties...

Yup, I already have the BH and it's HUGE. I can never find enough things to throw in there, but I LOVE the way it looks :love: I'm not concerned so much with how much I can fit in the 25 vs 30...more so which one looks better when carried!! (I can adjust the contents of my bag for the sake of beauty! LOL! :laugh: )

I have a SPEEDY 30 and can't imagine using the 25, but know a lot of gals look precious with them. Such a personal choice. I load my 30 up and actually have enjoyed her ever since day one. You can't go wrong with the Speedy! IMHO:heart: :flowers: GL!

Hi all:

Thanks God that I came across this thread, 'cause I have the same dilemma :cry: When I go out, usually I carry my cellphone, wallet, a pair of sunglasses, keys, and a very small makeup case, and that's about it. I'm 5'4".

I usually hang out in the weekend at places where they play foos ... Girls there carry all kinds of LVs, Juicy, D&G, etc, and most of them wear casual. I don't know if a Speedy 30 would make me look awkward, or if I went with a 25 then it might make me look like I'm carrying a toy. :shame:

Help me make a decision here plzzzzzzzzz ...

BTW, I live in Canada at a place where it's pretty far to drive to the nearest LV store, and I bought my LVs from 866 VUITTON.

I am 5'1" and I have a mono Speedy 30 but I went with the 25 Speedy in red epi. I felt the 30 epi looked much bigger than the 30 mono for some reason. I'm not sure about the Damier since I've never seen a Speedy in the Damier IRL. If you're going to use it as an everyday bag I think the 30 would be more practical.

Hello! I had the same dilema. I'm 5'1 and 3 quarters (lol, so I tend to round to 5'2) and I originally had a MINI SAC (lol) as an everyday bag, thinking the 25 was too big! I bought the 25 and loved it - LOVED it! Months went by, I treated it like gold. But the more I saw the 30 on people in my town, as well as on celebrities like Jessica Simpson and Ashley Olsen, I began to like the 30 more and more. Before I knew it I was OBSESSED with the speedy 30 - and so after only owning my 25 for a year I sold it on Ebay and bought a brand new Speedy 30 from my boutique (white plains, ny). I've had that for a year now - and I like the size and look so much more. When I had my mini sac I thought the 30 was like LUGGAGE! But over time I've grown to really love the 30. Now if only I could get my hands on a khaki graffiti speedy 30 I'd be set ;)

The only problem with the speedys is the sagging bottom, so I overcome this by putting a cardboard on the bottom of the bag to maintain shape. I have yet to try a purseket, sometimes things are a lil messy inside my speedy, I can imagine a purseket will be a suitable organizer for all my junks.

Im wondering what a purseket is and where can you buy one?

I have both a 25 and 30. I know what you mean when you say a 25 is small and a 30 too big. I think the 30 sags a lot (can look a bit dumpy), but holds a ton. The 25 also sags but not as bad, and looks a lot neater. Plus it really does hold a lot too :D

I have a large in my speedy 30 and it works great to just keep things a little more organized and a med for my speedy 25/alma

I think the 30 is the best size for the Speedy.. but it was a good thing they made the Cerise in a 25, because it wouldve looked weird having a small pattern on a big bag.

Awesome point! I have a Purseket in my 30 too and it looks so nice and structure, although I don't mind a little sag!

In fact, I'm so in love with big bags that I am getting a 35 and getting rid of my 25! And I'm only five feet tall! :flowers:
