For me, small. I'm 4'11" so if I get a large bag I look like a little girl with her mother's bag. I've found my perfect sizes are 10"W X 7.25"H X 4"D or 8.75"W X 10"H X 5"D.
 
I prefer small/tiny bags. Ever since switching from a huge full sized wallet to a Chanel card holder as my daily wallet a few years ago, I can carry some of the smaller bags like the LV nanos as a daily bag.

I also swapped out my bulky 6-key holder for a slim Orbitkey organizer.

I would prefer if the bag can fit my Kobo eReader but since I can read on my phone app it’s not a big deal if I need to leave it behind once in awhile.

I do have larger bags which are handy if I have a light jacket with me that I wear in the morning but is too hot for the afternoon, but those bags are mostly empty if I carry it on a regular day. I also don’t like how a bigger bag looks on me and I’m 5’7”.

I don’t work in a role that requires me to bring papers/files home and if I need to take my laptop home I put it in a neoprene sleeve that I carry. I rarely put my laptop in my designer bags.


Isn’t it the best thing to switch to a mini wallet, Coin purse, Card holder etc over a full size wallet?
It feels like your life is simplified. Since I changed my full size wallet to a nylon card holder/Coin purse I’m way happier. It feels like the sky is the limit with the bag I’m gonna get.

Small wallets are the best thing in the world.

Medium bags for me. Sometimes slightly larger. I used to bring really large bags, but started to downgrade when I had to bring a laptop home most days.
And ideal bag for me fits a mid-sized wallet, water bottle, scarf, and some small toiletry and cosmetic basics. I can survive if my sweater/scarf doesn't fit. I prefer room for a water bottle for a daily bag, unless I am carrying around a laptop backpack.
 
For work I like a bigger bag to fit my documents, lunch, tumbler, umbrella, notebooks, etc. A good size is 13-15" so that everything fits comfortably. I started using a smaller wallet, too, so on the weekends or for quick errands I'll take a smaller bag, 10-8". I just don't want to carry so much anymore because I walk/take public transportation/ride a bike to get around.
