To just load the OS you need a 120GB SSD, though this isn't ideal because many people find they run out of space on this rather quickly.
If you can afford it get a 250GB SSD, it has enough room for the OS and a few games to spare without filling up too quickly.
The two best choices for SSD's on the market right now:
Storage: Samsung 850 EVO-Series 120GB 2.5" Solid State Drive ($66.01 @ Amazon)
Storage: Samsung 850 EVO-Series 250GB 2.5" Solid State Drive ($86.95 @ Amazon)
Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available

Get the largest-capacity SSD you can possibly afford if you plan to 'clone' your HDD to it. Then you'll have less trouble trying to 'shrink' the HDD partitions(s) to fit on it.
Of course, if doing a fresh Windows install on the SDD, the above advice is irrelevant.
