Review on πŸ‘œ Baggallini Everywhere Crossbody Bags & Wallets: Lightweight, Water Resistant and Ideal for Women by Dave Johnson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Not too big and not too small - just right!

I spent MANY hours trying to find the right handbag online before purchasing this one and I am so glad I chose this one! I'm looking for a magic bag that will fit everything without getting heavy, but this holdall should do the job for now. I don't swap handbags for outfits anymore, but after a few months I realized what a difference!? I thought it was too casual for the job, but my chiropractor's request to use a shoulder bag instead of a shoulder bag finally convinced me; I could have bought a few bags for those extra adjustments and I think it helped my neck and shoulders. It contains exactly what I need, but no more, so I can't "break in". I ordered a smaller Baggallini (Criss Cross) first and laughed out loud when it arrived - it was barely bigger than my makeup bag! I wanted to reduce, but really!? Although I usually disapprove of the boring "What's in my bag?" question. Entries in online reviews, I have to admit they were helpful in finding my wallet. So here: a small wallet, a small RFID wristband with strap that came with the bag, personal keys, a giant ring with working keys, a medium-sized cosmetic bag with lots of small items, glasses, sunglasses in a large hard case, pens, pepper spray, a iPhone in a large shatterproof case (no plus, fits into the slide-out pocket on the back for easy access), headphones, granola bars and chewing gum. Wow, that seems more personal than I expected. Here's what's NOT good: iPad (regular unless you leave it open), books, lunch, 20oz. Water bottle or whatever my significant other put in my bag when I wore the Big One. I'm happy with the material (no cheap plastic faux leather and real leather), zippers, hardware and straps. A zippered pocket on the back opens to attach a suitcase and the bag travels well. Haven't used a side water bottle holder yet as my refillable bottles are too big; This feature could be improved, but it's unobtrusive in a succinct way. Maybe he's holding a little umbrella? I bought a suitable large bag for work as I travel a lot during the day but it gets VERY heavy. Since I've decided to prioritize my physical well-being over cute handbags, I've also switched to a women's trolley that is life-changing! Hmmm. You may need to think about more comfortable shoes.
