baggallini Women's Shoulder Bag Tote with Removable Pouch

I haven't had a chance to use the bag yet so I will comment on what I see on the bag. I bought it hoping to use it as a personal item for flights, if I fly carryon only it helps that more items can be put in the personal bag along with the carryon case. The fact that this bag has only one large compartment inside which will help to fit more items in there. I really like the Woodrose color I purchased, it is a more subdued pink color than Barbie pink. I'm glad it has an RFID compartment, I think a passport will fit in it, and I also like that the slip compartment next to it is lined with something soft. My phone fits in that compartment, but not completely top-to-bottom so I can easily pull the phone out. I'm happy it has a key tether too, I find them quite useful. I wish there was a zipper at the bottom of the luggage handle sleeve in case I wanted to use that space as another slip pocket. I was surprised how stiff the little removable pouch is, I think that might limit its usability more than if it was a software pouch. It is cute though and a nice addition to the bag. The bag is sturdy but not too heavy. I haven't attached the shoulder strap yet but that should come in handy for carrying the bag while traveling. I'm glad it is removable though for everyday carrying use. This bag will make a nice addition to my existing Baggallini fleet!

Just when I think I have all the bags I need, Baggallini grabs my attention with a great new choice. This tote is marvelous with its capacity and luggage sleeve. It will be a perfect personal item for flying. The Woodrose with Peony pouch is beautiful. I am pleased with the option of having the handles or the crossbody strap.
