I want a bucket. I missed that super Portland leather sale last month but I'm going to ask my parents for it for Xmas now. So, Yogurt, you got a small vs large comparison? Did I ask this already. I don't need huge since I'm not schlepping diapers and crap anymore but I don't want it to be too tight. Or another bucket anyone recommends? Something for like an everyday casual bag. I'd like to keep it like 150 is or less? I know I’ve talked the small bucket before, but I don’t remember if it was you or someone else 😂 I have the small bucket and it’s perfect for me for an every day bag. Easily fits my long trifold wallet, iPhone 13 pro max, and sunglasses case. I can fit a normal sized plastic water bottle in there but not much bigger than that. There’s a pocket on the inside that I use for my keys and chapstick. It can’t hold anything too tall because of the way it closes, but it’s wide enough to fit all of the stuff listed laying down. I need to figure out how to post pictures for an example. Haha maybe I did ask before 😂😂😂😂 I know I was thinking about it before but I'm too lazy to scroll. I do actually think the small might be what I want. Yogurt makes the large sound.....very large lol. And I really don't carry too too much. It's so hard to tell with the website photos though!

I ordered the Classic signature tote from Dagne Dover in black with a slim wallet. Total was $168 with free shipping.

I’m sorry if this question has already come up in this giant thread but if you had to choose between a Neverfull and a disco bag, what would you choose and why? I may be coming into a bit of play money soon and want to buy one of them but can’t decide which.

I don't love my Neverfull, honestly. It's too big for my day to day, and the occasions where I do feel it's warranted are the same occasions every other basic bitch in town thinks to wear theirs. It is roomy, but the straps aren't super comfortable. I still like the look of it, but I don't carry it as much as my smaller bags.

I haven't been reaching for my Neverfull as much the past few years. I'd probably use a Disco more, if I had one.
ETA: Agree that it is a little large for my day to day. I used it more when my daughter was younger and I carted more of her stuff around. Now that she's older, I gravitate towards smaller bags. I SAH, so maybe I'd feel differently if I needed a bag to cart around work stuff.

I came in here ready to ask for recs on a generous sized brown leather crossbody but new I should look at other posts first - and there it is, just what I was looking for! Take25 brings this to $153. Now to decide which color - any recs? I'm leaning towards Grizzly or Coldbrew.

I don't have a neverfull, but I've been trying to use my disco as more of a daily bag and not just a special occasion one. It's such a great size.

SweetPotato has this bag in a different color/material, and I really loved it in person, despite ignoring it in pictures online. I saw this leather rattan version in person at Nordstrom, so now I'm weighing if this can be my daily bag for the next couple years or if I'll tire of the color or rattan. Also, the whole pesky $600 I'll need to come up with.

Thank you everyone! I do have a lot of totes also that just sit around so I think Disco is the better choice ultimately. Now to choose which colour…

I’m looking for a recommendation for a small purse that I can take to weddings or professional events.
I want it to be black.
Size: it has to be able to hold an epipen and my phone. The epipen is about 6.5in by 3in by 1.5in.
It needs to either be a crossbody or a wristlet - I use crutches, so I need to have something to be able to hold it.
I’m looking for something as small as possible for those times when I really don’t need anything but my epipen, phone, drivers license, and 1-2 keys.

I’m looking for something as small as possible for those times when I really don’t need anything but my epipen, phone, drivers license, and 1-2 keys. I have a Kate Spade phone wristlet wallet. Your list mirrors my must haves exactly and it works. As a bonus- it serves as a wallet so I chuck it inside a bigger tote for travel, etc. www.katespade.com/products/spencer-phone-wallet/PWR00231.html?cgid=ks-wallets-wristlets-pouchesI also have a bag v similar to this that I like a lot and can carry all the things you listed. www.katespade.com/products/spencer-flap-chain-wallet/K4563.html?cgid=ks-handbags-cross-bodyIf you have an outlet near you, you can probably get a mid-tier brand (Coach, Kate Spade, etc) for a really good price.

I may be coming into a bit of play money soon and want to buy one of them but can’t decide which. I love my Disco and it’s the purse I use the most. I still carry my Neverfull as a diaper/toddler bag if I am out with DD for a long time but those days are coming to an end soon and my disco holds my phone, keys, wallet, small cosmetics bag and a few other essentials. I have a larger, more structured LV tote for when I go into the office to meet clients but those days are rare. Disco for the win in my book! Edit to add- I have the neutral tan, which I think Gucci calls Rose Beige. It’s not pink at all and goes with everything! I carry it with yoga pants, jeans, t-shirts and sweatshirts but it looks cute with my casual dresses and rare date night outfits too.

oldmama82 awesome, thanks and the rose beige is the one I decided I am going to get. Now just need to wait for the cash influx. Also, I think my husband is getting me the double G Gucci belt in black for Christmas. What are the rules (if any) on matching belt to purse?

I have the double G belt and wanted to match it to my disco. In my experience, the belt and bag colors/names do not match. I asked an online Gucci associate, while shopping online the “How can I help you?” messenger popped up. I had originally put a belt in my cart that would have been too pinkish and they steered me in the right direction to get the classic tan I wanted. Edit to add - if you are asking if it’s ok to match a tan purse with a black belt then I think absolutely! I may ask for a black GG belt for Christmas too!

Could anyone measure the length of the strap on the disco for me? I am interested in purchasing one second hand but I'm plus size and want to make sure it's long enough.

This is what the website says: Min. Strap Length: 125cm / 49.2in Max. Strap Length: 135cm / 53.1in As a size 12, I would say it hits a bit higher as a crossbody than some of my other bags, but not awkwardly so.

rhymeswithdisco, I also see some pics in google images if you google Gucci disco plus size, so maybe you could see the bag on a body like yours.
