This is just the perfect size as a go-to handbag for me for daily use, including walking the dog (since this bag is water resistant/ won't have an issue when going out in the rain). I had the smaller sized crossbody Baggalini bag for several years but then outgrew it (had to get a larger wallet and upgraded to a smartphone from a flip semi-smart phone). I love the design of this bag and was shocked how ultra-light it is (a plus since even a few items like a wallet and smartphone can already make any bag feel heavy) but have just ONE drawback compared to my former crossbody bag: It ironically has fewer inner pockets to hold things. I thought that it would have either more or the same number. (BIG disappointment!!!) Because I love all of the other attributes of this bag, I am keeping it. But boy am I saddened by the fact that I will need to buy a small organizer pouch of some kind so my stuff (such as hand lotion, hand sanitizer, etc.) doesnt get lost or roll around at the bottom of the bag. Baggalini, you can do WAY better, especially since your bags are not so cheap - !
