Baggallini Cross Over Crossbody Bag - Lightweight, Water Resistant Travel Purse
T**A
Perfectly organized bag
It is my second Baggalini crossbody. The previous Tripple Zip crossbody was nice and met my needs but when the amount of keys that I had to keep in my bag reached more than 12 I realised that I need something bigger.When I received the Crossover crossbody I was impressed with numerous pockets for my every need and more. The second feature that now I consider as a high priority is key ring with key leash. Now I feel safe and I know that my keys are always with me. And of course it was pleasant to receive RFID purse and I am not afraid to loose it as it stays connected with my bag.I absolutely love that this bag is so well organized, divided into 3 sections and I know place of location for each item and do not waste time for searching.I also like its central compartment for its easy access and I keep there some of my things that I need to take out and return back fast.Now I realise that it is so hard to find 3-compartment bag at affordable price that I shall not replace it with something else .Also I like its material, it looks nice and it is durable and light and waterproof.I have to spend many hours outside my home at work and I have to carry all my necessities with me.So I keep the following in my bag:Central compartment - phone (or even two phones), bluetooth headphones in their bag, sun glasses, sunscreen stick, 12 keys, coin purse, two combs and rfid purse supplied together with the bag,Front zip compartment - paper documents, bills etc.Rear zip compartments - glassed, pens, small noteFront open pocket - monthly pass ticket, another front open pocket - some coins, tickets and not important papers.Still do not know what to put in small front zip pockets - may be I shall decide later on that may be charging device.In the zipped pocket of the central compartment I keep my cards and ID and I am happy that it is located in the safest place of the bag. And in the rear pocket with magnetic closure I keep my cards for meditation but it is large enough to hold a large phone.And I also like the bag capability to stand by itself and not to fall down.So my dream of well organized crossbody cane true. The only thing that I need now is compartment or side pocket for water bottle. I found a hobo bag from Baggalini with this feature but it does not have so many compartments.Anyway I am completely satisfied and Baggalini is the best.

"Almost" the perfect bag for me!
I shopped long and hard, both locally and online, for my "ideal" bag. After much frustration I am trying this one.PROS:• Lightweight: 12.24oz. WITHOUT the Wristlet. 13.65oz. WITH it.• It's not too big (I'm 5'1", so I need smaller scale).• Plenty of pockets & zippered compartments.• Several colors to choose from.• 2 vertical pen slots (much better than horizontal).• Two D-rings stitched into either side of the side seams, of the main snapped pocket. They allow you to attach the Wristlet or a Lanyard. One of them has a 6 inch strap.CONS:• The zippers are NON-LOCKING. In fact, not only do they not lock, they don't even have a catchpin to prevent accidentally opening. If they're not completely zipped, anyone can easily open it by simply sliding a finger inside. Definitely not good when traveling, (which is ironic, since Baggallini is known for its' travel bags).• Only one slip pocket inside the whole bag. (I need at least 2.)• Only the Wristlet is RFID protected, not the whole bag. (My wallet is RFID, so not an issue for me personally.)• The back outside pocket should have a bottom zipper for a luggage handle, (and lockable, to be used as a regular pocket when not traveling).• The front pockets, both the open and zippered ones, expand very little. They're only good for very small stuff.• Wish it was available in a true Purple, lol!* Not sure why, but to me it feels unnatural to open the zippers from top to bottom. But I do agree the bag looks better with the zippers closed at the top.Bottom line: Almost perfect organizational design. Better for everyday use, but definitely lacking functional and safety features for traveling.

Very Accommodating
I like all the different compartments especially the attached wallet. Of course with all the compartments full it is pretty heavy. I bought the blue purse because it goes with most things.
