baggallini Odyssey Bagg  (Discontinued Colors)

"I really didn't know what to expect. I got this bag because of some of the positive reviews on it and because I also own the big zipper baggallini bag. (which I absolutely adore) I have to say I am really impressed. The main selling point for me was it having an inner padded pocket for a small ereader or smaller tablet. I do have to point out, it is really only usable for a small ereader or like a 7" tablet. I own a nexus 7, a kindle paperwhite, and a kindle fire HD 8.9. Out of those three, the best fit was the kindle paperwhite, but the nexus 7 also fits, only it adds noticeable weight to the bag. The KFHD 8.9 actually can fit into the bag but it's way too big and leave little to no room in the bag to access anything else. Just putting that out there! Anyway, it's a nice bag and since I am a minimalist, it's great just to carry around a few items here and there in both travel and just everyday use."

"This is a very attractive bag. Unfortunately, it is too small to do what I need it to do. I am returning it."

"This is a great, well organized bag to use for everyday shopping. I like the size as it is larger than the Paris bag, of which I have 6 in different colors, but for winter, I needed more room for gloves, etc., and this works extremely well. I would change it in several ways to be absolutely perfect. In the small purse with the strap inside, it would be a vast improvement to have a clear plastic pocket on the outside of it for my Driver's license. Also, it needs another strap on the inside to attach car keys, like in the Paris bag. I don't understand why it was not included. Otherwise, I love it and ordered it in 2 more colors. The Baggallini purses are superb as they are washable....a quick wipe and spots come right off, and no polishing. For dress, I use leather purses."

"I have a lot of Baggallini purses but I think this is my favorite. I purchased it because it has a place for an Ipad. My Ipad 4 fits perfectly in the purse if you put it in as if it is in landscape mode. I don't carry the Ipad all the time because it does make the purse heavier and a little harder to get to my wallet. However, it's good to know that I can fit my Ipad, wallet, sunglasses, smartphone, keys and the pouch that came with it where I put my lipstick, comb, etc. I also like that it has a longer strap that attaches so that I can carry it as cross-body purse and my hands are free."

"First of all, I love the brand, and I have several quite large totes. That's why I carefully read the reviews and also noted the size to see if this purse would be just right--not too big and not too small. However, the bag is essentially TOO small. I have no idea how I would put my Nook on one side and then try to shove a small wallet, keys, and makeup case in the other part--forget the makeup case, that had to go. Also, I downsized my key chain and made that smaller. I dug in my dresser drawer for a smaller, more compact wallet, which I have, so I changed everything over to the small one. Phone--where oh where will I put my PHONE??? I have no idea! I have a Samsung Galaxy, if that helps for the size, and at this point all one could put into the purse is a phone, small wallet, keys and maybe, just maybe a small--very very small--cosmetic bag. That's it and the purse is bulging. The price is HIGH, but I didn't mind that if the purse works. I wish it were about two inches wider and at least two inches deeper. I could carefully cut out the padded inner divider but how can I take scissors to this nice bag? My other purses by the same brand are just too sloppy and big. WHERE IS THE PERFECT SIZED PURSE????"

"i got this bag to use everyday. it was a bit smaller than i had hoped and the double straps are not removable btw -- i was planning on using just the cross shoulder strap. i solved the space issue by getting rid of my wallet and using the wallet that was included and the card slots inside the bag. i cut off the double straps. i decided to keep the bag bc i like the style and got it on sale, but seriously if you're not a minimalist, it's too small. they should add at least one more inch to the width of the bag, 3"-4" instead of 2"."

"I love this - it is just the right size - not so big as to be overwhelming, but big enough that things are not crammed together. It also has a bit more of a finished look."

"I'm sure I will like it but I haven't started using it yet. My daughter sent me another one from Calif. and I am using it right now and I love it."

"Great Bag!"

"Love this bag. Spacious, lightweight, organized. Even has a padded interior pocket for an ipad or nook."
