i agree... the medium is sort of big for me, but then i'm petite.
i use it for everyday for work... i carry magazines, makeup, phone, snacks...
but when in the evening, i find it a little big to carry it from bar to bar or simply a dinner out.

like i said, yes, it's very like the lavender, but not as purplish. i would still call it a lavender-ish color. very pretty.

Please see the pic that i've posted before. Is it my eyes or you guys see it the same with new fall color baby blue? This pic is what balenciaga NYC send me as sky blue..weird..

it does look like the new pale blue, doesn't it? but i guess it's the lighting.
i was told that this pic is the sky blue, not the fall's pale blue.

yes, i love it! it is slightly brighter than the last red, but i really like it. i wanted
a coral-ish red, but this will do. it's a perfect "rouge theater" color!

I own the big twiggy and I can wear it across my shoulder but only with a thin jacket or no jacket and if the bag isn't stuffed. I'm 5 feet and 112lbs but I work out so it's more muscle than fat at least on top, LOL.

chloegal,

i, personally, don't think the strap is too short. i prefer a slighter shorter strap
than the overly long straps. a lot of people prefer to have long straps where it
hits all the way down to the hips, but i always disliked that look.

i am really enjoying the size of the straps...

btw, the new grey looks simliar to the grey, no?

I really like the magenta and ivory...the others I'm not so keen on. Maybe navy. I think the berry red looks pinkish-red, like raspberry-ish. I thinkwill put my name in for classique magenta and city ivory.

[meowmix]

eep! i just placed an order for the medium red

[Jellylicious]

Need help...
Am trying to decide between the city in either berry red or magenta?!??!?!

[meowmix]

mmm i think the magenta is a bit too bright...but it can be a fun color. red is easier to wear...i like the red

they are both very nice colors....

but it's really up to you... what color do like better?

i've always been into the main primary colors.

is this the new red? it looks different from the old red (could just be the picture):
