I have some questions about this bag might buy one for the girlfriend....

Is the large or the medium more preferred? She likes her bags to sit at her under-arm not her hip.
How often do these sutton get discounted? Nordstroms is 20% off but probably ends today. How likely are you to lose stuff out of the top since it doesn't zip closed?

We saw a summer blue tristan convertible satchel at the outlet for the same $300 as the large sutton on sale.. the tristian I noticed doesn't sell for nearly as much on ebay, but it is wider than it is tall, 15x10, where as the sutton is 14x10 taller than it is wide. Seems like the sutton is a little less inconvenient than the tristan.

I don't know I'm just a man, give me some advice ladies.. thanks !


Depending on her height/ weight will determines where it will sits. This bag can worn three ways, in the crook of your arm, over your shoulder, and crossbody. You can shorten the strap but even on the shortest setting the bag hits me at the top of my hip and I am 5 ft 6 inches. Michael Kors bags go on sale frequently. Today is the last day of Friends and Family at Bloomingdales (20%) off, free shipping if there is no bloomingdales in your state then no tax.

I would say the size would be base off your gf's height and build and how much she likes to put in her bags. I'm very petite and I just tried on the large this week. It's not that huge compared to the medium; however, I felt like the large looked like more of a work bag on me. I also felt like it would be cumbersome to carry. If she likes to carry a ton of stuff though the medium probably won't be big enough. Regarding your question about the open top, this was something I was concerned about. I did some research and a lot of ladies said they cover their stuff with a fun scarf or use a zippable purse organizer. I think it would be fine. Hope this helps with some of your questions!

P.S. You're awesome for doing so much research to find the perfect bag for your gf!
 
Thanks for the replies above.. I ended up getting the zip top which I think will be ok on her.

Here's a comparison of the Medium Sutton / Jet Set Zip Top / Large Sutton

What are y'all's thoughts on mandarin versus sapphire? I haven't seen the mandarin in person. Which is best for a fun punch of color for spring and summer? By the way, I just went through my warm weather wardrobe and apparently it's a lot more colorful than I remember lol!!!
