Not sure what size the Arabesque is that I just returned. I was wondering if it came in a smaller size. That might be doable!I'll continue following this thread, as I'm having the same dilemma. I love the Tian, but don't know how versatile it actually is, especially in the larger size. The Arabesque is beautiful, but I'd prefer the Medium ( or smaller) size. You really do need to see the bags in person, try them on, etc. ...
