My initial concern with ordering this bag from the reviews was that it was going to be too big.  As one review said that she couldn't lift it when it was filled up and another that it could be used to pack for 2 weeks....???  Well, can't say that I see any of those points.  The bag is a perfect size for a weekend away....pretty sure I could not pack for 2 weeks using only it and I don't see it being too large or heavy for anyone once it was filled.

I think it is perfect for my weekend aways as well as going to be very practical as a carry on for air travel.  Size wise it will fit under the airplane seats if not completely stuffed and has enough room to expand for the extra storage of shopping and souvenirs on the way home.

This is the 3rd Baggallini bag I have bought this year and I am loving all of them.  Great quality and function with them.  One is a cross over purse that is perfect for travel and I have been using it for everyday use too.  The second Is a tote that I use for work - perfect size and so functional with room for my laptop and my other business portfolios and planners and now this weekender that I will be taking on my week long business trip and using as a carry on regularly.

The red color doesn't seem to be as bright of a red as the picture shows but I still love it.
