Review on Baggallini Take Bryant Crossbody - Black Handbag & Wallet for Women, Crossbody Bags by Carmen Rosean

I used to carry a Baggallini Bryant (6.5" x 4.75") which is only slightly smaller than this bag (7.25" x 5") Although the difference in size is small, it's actually enough to make a real difference. I never really used the interior of the old Bryant, instead I really only used the outer pockets for my phone and slim cardholder-style wallet. Items I have packed. The two separate pockets are good for organization without adding bulk. And it's still small enough for me (I used to experiment with big men's wallets sometimes, and with anything bigger, I'd just grab my phone and wallet and leave without even using the bag). I'll close with my only complaints and why I'm only giving it 4 stars: 1. There's one really simple area where it's a downgrade from Bryant: Bryant had a small ring on the side where you could clip a carabiner and attach bits and pieces like keys or other small things. It doesn't have such a ring on the side and there isn't a good way to attach things to the outside2. It's more of a personal organizational preference, but I don't think internal card slots are useful. You can make better use of the space by carrying a thin card case and slipping it in your pocket. Then the card holders in the pocket can be changed to more versatile slots instead of card slots that are too flimsy and small to be used for anything other than cards.
