Hi,
Looking for a crossbody to take on vacation. I currently have a VB Hipster and Mailbag but those are pretty large. Any ideas?? Would love to see some pics of the bag you suggest as well. Thanks!!
 
I have one that I bought at DL in 2015, super cute and perfect size to fit my needs. If I get a chance later I'll take a pic.

If you like VB they have a smaller hipster. Just big enough for your cellphone (I slip mine in the back pocket) wallet, a pocket fan, cooling towel, and a few other small things. Here is a photo of some of the Disney ones.

Yes! I have one of these and it's perfect!! I got the WDW Flower and Garden Festival one off eBay, despite being a DLR goer, because it had my favorite pattern.
 
I have that one also and I really like it. I think it is a tiny bit on the small side but I need to fit a pack of cigarettes in mine and the big I phone. Add my sunglasses and it is pretty much impossible to zip. Without either the giant phone or the cigarettes it would be perfect.
 
There are a couple of good small Le Sportsac cross body bags. I have two that I really like.
 
Great question! I just order a Lesportsac one today but have been eyeing the Disney VB ones too. So many choices!
 
Another vote for LeSportsac! Really light weight and the material dries quickly if it gets wet. I use both the Kylie and Small Cleo styles. They are on the smaller side (I don't carry very much in the parks) but there are bigger styles too.

They are actually having a sale on their crossbody bags right now!

Good to know about the sizes. I ordered the small Cleo. I only need something to carry a few things. Debated the Kylie, thinking it may hold a water bottle, do you think it would? Love the fact that they're light
 
I have a bunch of sizes of lululemon cross body purses, and I LOVE them - they have so many pockets, and am in the diaper/wipes/millions of other things stage. I have a small one that I usually take to the park that holds my camera, wallet, and some diapers and wipes...it's like a tiny duffel bag. They have an even smaller one that I have but I have too much crap in the parks. My duffel is called the DTB duffel and the smaller one is the festival bag.
 
I have a couple, depends on what I want to bring to the parks. The smallest one is a Kavu, Even though the bag looks really small I can fit my phone, sunglasses, id/cc/$, Chapstick, small pill case and it still has a little bit of room for pins, mints etc that I sometimes carry. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00BFQ2IM6/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

The other bag I consistently carry is a Keen Brooklyn II crossbody. To me, this is a nearly prefect bag (nearly because it does not have a zipper on the main compartment), tons of pockets, key clip, super comfortable (yet cute) shoulder strap. It does not look huge but I can fit so much! Seriously I can fit all I carry in the small bag plus a light hoodie, water bottle (has a mesh bottle pocket on the inside!), umbrella, with room for tons more - I have stuffed this bag at WDW like I never thought possible ;) here is the link but know that mine does not have that awkward-looking phone pocket on the outside. On the back of mine is a flat pocket, the phone pocket is on the inside. https://www.amazon.com/Keen-Brookly...qid=1478034353&sr=8-1&keywords=keen+crossbody

have been looking at this Timbuk2 Harriet bag - not that I need it since I still love my park bags. https://www.amazon.com/Timbuk2-789-...s5&pd_rd_wg=M8O3p&refRID=AE50ZZD6B8BXZTR4NC3Z
 
I use a VB hipster.
I don't carry much in it so it stays flat to my body.
I can fit a bottle of water in it which is nice but I only do it if I really need it.
I've tried the little hipster, mini hipster, little flap hipster, and the petite double zip hipster and they are either too small or just too bulky once filled.
I've also tried various other companies but nothing can beat VB's soft straps that don't slide around and dig into me.

I prefer the Cleo to the Kylie because it is a little wider. I've squeezed a small bottle into both, but it took up most of the space in the Kylie and stuck out of the top of the Cleo. I actually found this cute little 12 oz. bottle that I bring now because it fits perfectly inside the Cleo. I really just use it if I need a sip of water while waiting in line and just drink a lot of water during meals and when at the hotel. I hate carrying a lot of weight around so that is the sacrifice!

Perfect, thanks! Sounds like the Cleo will be perfect
 
I use the LeSportSac Kasey or a Tsum Tsum bag I got at DisneyStore.com. Both fit everything I need and prevent me from stuffing in tons of stuff I don't need. Also have a Kipling crossbody that can be used as a hip bag.
