I think it is lovely on you. You do not look like you're much taller than 5'6. I find that the 25 is nicely proportioned for someone who is not super tall. Especially if you're planning on wearing a cross body, as on a shorter person, the 30 tends to stick out from the body too much. I have both the 25 in a 30 and I love them equally well. Enjoy your bag. Lovely. [emoji7]
Thank you! That's so sweet of you to say! I made the mistake of trying on the 30 again in the store the other day, and now I have major buyer's remorse! I used to think the 30 looked too big on me, but now I think it kinda looks better than the 25. What do you think? I'm a overthinking it?
Thank you!! I am just under 5'4. I did buy the strap to wear it cross body, and I agree it does not look too bulky when worn like that. Thank you girls for helping put my mind at ease
I totally get it. I have the speedy B 25 and for some reason it felt bigger than my speedy 25. I wound up giving the speedy 25 to my daughter and got a 30. Why not try the speedy b 25 and see if that makes a difference. You can always sell your hot stamped bag.
I think the Speedy 25 B sits best as a crossbody. In my opinion the other sizes sag too much and look odd against the body.

I think the 30 is the perfect size. I have had multiples in all sizes and my opinion is the 30 is perfect for everything! GLD
looks perfect on you. I have both the 25 and 30 and 25 looks far better when carried with straps.

Honestly, they both look great on you IMO.
I have both the 25 and 30 sizes and feel like I can wear either... not sure how tall you are but you look to be a similar size to me. I would keep the Speedy B 25 for times when you need a strap... maybe just add the 30 later or whenever you can. HTH!
I just had my chap replaced that had my initials hot stamped on for $60. The system would only put it in as a pair for $120, but my SA made a note for only the hot stamped one to be replaced for $60.
First recommendation if the patina isn't too much change the chap and sell. $60 is a good investment and your speedy looks to be in great shape and in my opinion will sell faster and for more with out the hot stamp.
Second. Keep the 25 and if you can get the speedy 30B in Damier Ebene.
My favorite. Keep the 25 and HOPE they make a speedy in mono with black trim.
Speedys are addicting. I have a mono and azur in 30. An ebene in 35, wish the B was out then and I would have done a 30B instead. But this is my first louis and she will always have a place in my heart. I'm really hoping they make a mono world tour black trim without stickers. I really want a carefree B but can't justify an ebene in 30 and 35.
Hope my long-winded comment helped.
