Baggallini Women's RFID Bryant Pouch, Midnight Blossom

Comment

Neat smart phone pouch! I am a bit disappointed because it does Not fit an iPhone 6 plus with an otter box. I will give it to a friend and stick with my flipbird bag.

This is the fourth bagaIllini purse that I have purchased. I wanted one that was very small so that it would be even more lightweight than the others. There is a thin slot on the back panel which you can slide a smart phone into, it fits my iPhone 6s. As you can see in the photo there is also a pouch on the front which has a gathered elastic band. The phone also fits in that pouch. However I put my sunglasses there when I enter a building. So the sunglasses can go on the front and your phone can go on the exterior slot pocket. Of course you can also carry your phone in your pants pocket if you desire. This bag has a problem regarding cash and coins though. I haven’t been able to figure out a . Solution. There is only one zippered compartment and that is the main body. When you open it you access the little slots that hold your credit cards and drivers license. The same area is the area where you can put everything else, for me that is one pen, a lip balm, powdered facial sunscreen, and one or two feminine hygiene products. There is no special spot to put cash or coins. If you stash the cash down into the pocket every time you open it to retrieve lip balm or Other item you are at risk for accidentally flipping out the folded cash onto the ground. When I dump the coins into the bottom of the purse, if I don’t completely shut the zipper when I toss it into my car or lay it down the coins fall out all over the ground or floor. Also when I am trying to access the coins to pay the cashier, I have to remove everything in the purse in order to get my hand into the bottom. I have tried folding the cash into fourths and then sticking them into one of the credit card slots but it is not really working. It really needs an extra small interior zippered compartment as the other Baggalini bags have, to keep the cash safe. I have gotten used to this mini purse and I’m starting to use it every day instead of when I was just on my trip. Due to the cash and coins issue I will rate this 4 stars = like it instead of 5 stars.

Have been using Baggallini bags for years and have loved them. I wanted to go smaller for an everyday bag I can keep just essentials in and this one looked like it would be perfect. The first thing I didnt like is that the elastic on the front pocket is very loose and gapes open; worries me when I put my phone in it that it will fall out. Inside there are card slots which I like, but the opening inside is very small, not deep enough for cash, and hardly big enough for a Chapstick and a mini pen. So, while it works, it is not the perfect solution I was hoping for.

I tried to move my "essentials" to this purse for times when I dont have pockets for carrying my phone. I found the inner pocket very snug if the credit card slots were filled. I didnt have room for my key fob if the phone was in the main compartment, and my keys slipped out of the front pocket when the bag was on its side. Interestingly, the RFID protection also prevented my keyless door locks from "seeing" my key. So I guess the RFID works!

So far, this minipurse is working out wonderfully. I wanted something I could grab quickly to run a few errands. If Im going to be gone for the day, Ill use a larger bag with more stuff, but for a quick run to the grocery store, all I need is my phone, some ID, and a credit card. See the attached pictures. In picture #3, I tried to show whats in the little bag. My Galaxy J7 phone with slim cover (not an Otterbox type), plus some cash, chapstick, eye drops, license, credit card all fit with no problem in the main zippered compartment. I stash a pen on the outside back pocket and use the outside front pocket for my car keys. I also moved the wrist strap from the side to one of the back rings to better balance the purse when Im carrying it. I havent used it as a should bag yet, but cant see any problem with that.
