Baggallini Luggage Brussels Bag

I have about a half dozen Baggalini bags. This is the worst one. For starters it is the only one where the threading is coming loose. Too much material inside. It's ridiculous. Perhaps it needs to be sewn down better. Too many pockets as well. You need to keep a log of what is where. The size is great for travelling and it's attractive but I don't enjoy using it.

Some history: I have a convertible purse/backpack that I picked up many years ago, made by Eddie Bauer. I really love that bag, it's not high fashion but very handy for traveling and for Disneyland and other parks. Well...I tried to find another one like it, in beige...but E.B. no longer makes that bag (I've talked to the company twice). Looked for months on eBay, but no luck.

I read the reviews before I ordered this Baggallini bag, but decided to take a chance anyway. This was Plan A. It's nice...but the hardware overwhelms it. The turnlock is (IMHO) too large and clunky. I like the fabric, I like the color, I like the size...but I'm just not feelin' the love with these big old clasps and buckles. Even walked around the house with the bag on my shoulder, switched it to the backpack...still just couldn't embrace that hardware!

In case anyone is interested, I am trying two other convertible bags. Plan B is one made by Magellan's, the travel site, and it looks very similar in design to my beloved Eddie Bauer bag, but a tad bigger. And if that one doesn't work out...Plan C is a Mosey bag, a bit more expensive, but it gets *great* reviews.

I will post updates here as my search continues...I know there's a perfect bag out there for me somewhere!

Update 3/12: The "Plan B" bag arrived, the one by Magellan's. I guess I'm just really picky! This bag is deep and narrow, and I can just imagine peering down into the tunnel, rummaging around trying to find items. So this bag gets returned too. Just waiting on Plan C (the Mosey bag) now...

Update 3/19: My third choice (Plan C), the Mosey Convertible bag, just arrived and I love it! So if anyone else out there is looking for a cute purse that works well as a backpack, consider the Mosey Convertible. It was a bit pricier than my first two choices, but I'm very happy with it.

Great bag perfect for work as it replaces a purse and gadget bag. Lots of pockets make for great organization. Multiple handles (backpack, shoulder, crossbody) are so useful I particularly appreciate the backpack option when hands are full or while grocery shopping. This will be a great bag for vacation/traveling. May pick up a second in another color.

This bag is so nice! My daughter will take it with her on an extended stay in foreign lands. We saw some of the baggalinis in retail stores, but they weren't exactly what my daughter had in mind. We could see how durable and well made they were, so we continued to look online for them and for larger ones with more pockets. Amazon has them for less money than other sites and less than in the stores. And so many to choose from!

Excellent quality, roomy/organized interior and durable yet attractive fabric...I'd use this bag on a daily basis! Particularly fond of the graphite with magenta interior (makes finding things much easier than a black interior color).
