Estamps mini cuir today. Small but mighty in terms of capacity. Loving this size for the cuir.
Poll: if I get Sienna as well in this size, it feels like a replicate and too many bags in the same color family? I also have Game In in Carmine, Cavalcade in Burnt Red. I'm sure @smokiedragon8 will tell me it is a different style. :lol:

From the pictures on the LC website, Sienna looks like Burnt Red, which is in the Cavalcade for you. So it's a different style. Plus, without the LGP stamping, it looks like a different bag. So there are 2 factors to distinguish it from your Mini Estamps hehe :D

Oh, I love backpacks. To me, they are perfect to staying handsfree. I do get around the inconvenience of accessing it by pairing my backpack with a WOC. It proved to be very functional, esp when travelling. My duo will always be Foulonne backpack in black and my one and only WOC, also Foulonne in black.

I used to own the XS cuir backpack in Emerald. Gorgeous color but proportion wise, it looked a little small on me but space wise, perfect. It fitted all my essentials and I can still get an umbrella and hydroflask inside. When I saw the bigger version, I was really excited. I do need to try it on though and see how it looks on my frame. The small cuir is an excellent bag but for what I carry now, even the small cuir is quite big for me. I still love this size though. I agree that bolder colors do look good in smaller doses. Sienna is not that bold though, in fact it is a rather deep color. Even the Antique Pink and Honey this season looks great in the cuir line!

Arg! Don’t get me started...the honey n antique pink are right up there on my wishlist. I just don’t know which size to go for, the mini or the small. I love my striped one so I’m thinking I’ll definitely like another one in the same size but With softer leather, or should I try the bigger size as I love slouchy bags too? Can u help?

I hope I can help. This is a dilemma indeed. You mentioned that you are quite petite but since you love slouchy bags; I do think the small size is okay for you plus the strap is shorter. Even if the strap is too long, a good cobbler should be able to help take off a few inches or perhaps you can add on an adjustable strap to make it work for you. Maybe you can try purchasing one from a store with a return policy just to see if the size works for you? The new cuir leather is not as puddly as the older cuir (with long thin strap). It will somewhat still stand a bit whereas the old one just puddles. So I'm not sure which kind of slouch you prefer?

Since you love your striped mini, then this size definitely works for you. I'm really liking this mini but at the same time I know my small cuir is just as handy when I need to carry more or just want extra space.

Wow good to know about the leather difference from past n present cuirs. I think I’m leaning towards the ones with the shorter strap. Shorter is always better for me. :P looks like there’s room in my closet for both sizes! One of each at least:biggrin: time to think about colors n if I should bite the billet or wait for the next sale.:-s

Agree! I'm doing the same, thinking about which size to get and in which color. The year end sale usually happens in Nov (this year is peculiar so I'm not sure whether it will be postponed though or even brought forward as with SS sale) and for the past two years, at 30% off for cuirs.
