Wow, are they discontinuing the regular size Lady bag?

I read that as she got the large first because they were discontinuing it and now is getting the regular. Not that the regular was being discontinued too.

Thanks for clarifying @Jaime! It is the large size that's being discontinued. They're no longer available on the official MG online store. But can still find some at other resellers.

So I have carried my Mini lady bag a handful of times. I feel like this bag isn't for me. It seems like a hassle to insert the drawstring in the leather loops on both flap and bag. But I'm also worried that my things will fall out if i don't secure the flap. If my bag is filled, it seems like the flap doesn't go down well. Anyone else having these issues?

I also don't pull them through either loops. I think the design isn't for securing it each and every time. The slightly ajar look is what many mod shots show too. Unless I overstuffed my bag, the drawstrings and flap does a good enough job in keeping my belongings secured.

I just pull the strings and never insert them. But when I use the mini it's with minimal stuff never filled too much so nothing falls out.

Thanks for chiming in! I think I have to carry less in the mini. It's a worry for me when I start filling up to the brim. Today I tried taking things out of the one big cosmetic case to make room and it worked better. Possibly this means I need to upgrade to the regular size Lady! [emoji6]

Hello Everyone! I am new here so hopefully I am positing in the right group!
I have recently become obsessed with the MG lady bag and I have decided (I think) on a colour, the Brandy...but I am trying to figure out which size to indulge in...
Just for a bit of a background, I am 5 ft 6 and slim build. I am not into the oversized humungous bags currently but I want it to be practical too and get good use out of it. I plan to use it as a weekend (perhaps even day to day) bag, carrying a book, my make up bag, phone, wallet, basic essentials etc. If it can fit an ipad mini then thats a bonus.
I initially thought that the MG mini lady bag was the best size (i.e. the middle sized one - I find the naming of the various sizes so confusing!)...but then I found this on ebay (http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-MANSUR-...e=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&_trksid=p2055359.m1431.l2649) and am wondering if the "regular"/large size is actually as oversized/humungous as Ive made myself believe it...
Anyway sorry for the waffling, any advice would be much appreciated!

I think you'd be absolutely fine with the regular size. It's not oversized at all! I'm 5'2 and it still looks well proportioned on me.

There is (was?) a "Large" one that was quite huge.
