Review on πŸ‘› Pockets Crossbody Wallet for Women - Handbags & Wallets specifically designed for Women in Crossbody Bags by Angela Gershmel

Revainrating 4 out of 5

**Perfect for the essentials** Check out the pros and cons first!

I'm obsessed with this bag! It perfectly holds and separates my essentials for the day. My iPhone 11 Pro Max (my phone only fits in the middle zipper which can be a bit annoying), my foldable compact wallet (size 6 compartments) and my AirPods which are in a silicone case. I can then squeeze in my lip balm, a regular-size stick, and my travel-size EO hand sanitizer. I can also hang my keys on a hook on the outside of the wallet as they are large and I wouldn't have space either. I bought this in almost every color to return a few. Read my list of pros and cons to see why. I am a 24 year old single mom with a 3 year old and am constantly on the move so traveling light is essential as I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia last year and suffer from chronic pain. Pros: - stylish and super compact - the leather seems to be holding up well on the outside and hasn't peeled off like other faux leather yet (I'll update this if that changes) - that the zipped compartments are layered and tapered apart from the two largest compartments , where I keep my phone, wallet, AirPods, etc. So if you pack a lot in the bag it doesn't look *like* stuffed - it fits a surprising amount of items in the bag considering how compact the bag is - straps are easily adjustable - universal look - PERFECT DIMENSIONS : - the inner zips are quite a hassle and often get caught in the inner fabric (btw this is a dark brown fabric for the inner fabric of a black leather wallet, in case anyone is asking) and there's nothing you can do about it. This also comes with a zip closure on the back of the wallet. This wallet CAN fit a lot, but it tends to look bulky very quickly, which I don't like. It's not a big problem for me because I use this bag to carry very little to deal with neck pain from carrying heavy bags. The color is wrong. I had to send back the gray and "deep red" ones? Because they don't match anything and if they were even close to matching the color shown in the description/pictures they would be perfect. Colors, colors, COLOURS! Who came up with these colors? Some of them are great. but better please AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE. I will buy them. I will write a list of color requests under pros and cons! Ha. But for the BUYERS, here's the scoop. I have it in black, brown/camel (okay), purple (gorgeous and lighter than the picture), navy blue (not denim blue - I don't have that, but the navy blue I have is gorgeous), green (ok), soso gold I wanted to love gold, I just wish it didn't look so worn (hasn't been done properly to make the trendy distressed look look aged) but I'm keeping it because it takes me to my black and gold Sneakers. - Also, the seller never emailed any of my purchases to see how things were going, which I found odd. NOTE: I'm an avid Amazon shopper so I know my OU products and have had to send a few back because the material on some of them was awful *like they don't use the same consistency of faux leather for all bags - take note that some of them are incredibly smooth. and thick and withstands the beating of my 3 year old and a jogger. Other versions I received of this SAME BAG, SAME COLOR that I sent back and re-ordered were rough and awful looking and were useless and the zip compartments were deformed. I sent them back right away. I will say my mom tried to buy it and it happened and she chose Amazon's "Send in next 30 days and get replacement" option TWICE and never showed up. Overall I like this bag. It was agony with kinks getting the right one, but I couldn't do without it. SALESPERSON! Please improve the colors. These are: - Get a REAL burgundy (see Lululemon burgundy for a good example), true red, white, chocolate brown (think Hershey's chocolate) and a sweet light pink. Not like now! Anyhow, I hope this helps.
