Who Could Survive Without the Louis Vuitton Speedy 25?
The smallest of 4 sizes of the legendary Speedy, the Louis Vuitton Speedy 25 is a must have for any fashionista with a love for classics. Among the Speedy line, which originated in 1932 there are the Speedy 25, 30, 35 and 40. Being the smallest, the 25 is a later evolution, designed specifically as a city bag, whereas the earlier versions famously bridged the gap between carry on, over night bags and day bags.

At 9.8" x 7.5" x 5.9, it's a full 2 inches smaller on all sides than a Speedy 30, which may not sound like much, but can make a huge difference depending on the wearer's body type. Many people advise women under 5"6 choose the smaller Speedy 25 vs 30, but there are so many other factors that one really never knows until you try them out. I disagree with the idea that height or weight can be the only deciding factor. Trends for handbag sizes change seasonally. One thing is certain though, the Monogram Canvas Speedy 25 handbag never goes out of style.
Function: Speedy 25 Handbag
Clearly at less than 10 inches long, you're not going to be using the Speedy 25 as an overnight bag, unless you're a magic packer. It is however, plenty big enough to use as a city bag and fit wallet, makeup, phone, pen, keys, a scarf, toiletries and a bottle of water or something. The beauty of the Speedy 25, being such a legendary look is that it works just as well as a night time, formal bag as it does as a functional purse.
