Completely torn between the sand bucket and Rosa.
I have both but only want to keep one (considered both but I know I won't use both enough).
Neither is perfect however I guess the rosa has more issues than the sand (few marks and the metal stud connecting the pouch has that brown ring on it some have) but I guess eventually they will both show wear.
I just don't know which to pick. Rosa is probably more different to anything I have but I don't often wear pinks or whites. I'm more a jeans and tshirt type.

Which to pick?! (Why can't this be easy!!)

I'd vote Sand as well. Rosa sounds v pretty but I would find Sand more practical. Also Rosa is more a summer bag whereas Sand would work year-round for me.

I agree, Rosa is on her way back now!
Would love to have kept it too but really I am struggling to find room for my new additions as it is...So I really needed to choose.
Thanks!

I nabbed a Black/Ballerina regular bucket last night on Net-a-porter. I hope it won't be too huge on me! I'm only 5'2". I looked through the mod shot thread, and it seems like most people my height go for the Mini size instead? It's just so hard to find!!

Are there any other shorties toting a regular size out there, and if so, do you find that it's bulky/large?

I kind of feel like keeping it open and laying flat at the top might help mitigate the thickness of it, so I might try that to start with.

Check the mod shot thread. Photos just posted of 5'2" woman absolutely rocking the large bucket. She looked amazing.

Got my brick/avion bucket last night from the last relaunch. She's soOo pretty :)

Also, I'm 5'2" on a good day and the regular size is prefect. It's a tad long if I just wear on shoulder but just the right length cross body. I fit my surface 3, small makeup bag, sunnies, iPhone and a Aden and Anais swaddle blanket with room to spare :) ImageUploadedByPurseForum1438786976.664290.jpg

I am 5'2" and kept reading that mini is recommended for my height too. I was disappointed when I received my mini, as I thought it looked too small on me and for my needs. I also associate bucket bags with a larger size. The mini just didn't give me alot of excitement. I was fortunate enough to be able to trade it for a regular bucket at no extra cost. I am completely happy with the regular size!

It does look a little unwieldy when carried crossbody, due to the stiffness and how much it juts out at a 45 degree angle. But I prefer to carry it on one shoulder anyway. Strap length at its shortest is fine for me too, I have no trouble reaching for my stuff at the bottom of the bag.
