This new one is cute AND park appropriate! http://shopharveys.com/disney-backpack-pop-art/

I asked for a BFF streamline tote for my bday, hoping it is lighter since the belts are straight across instead of woven. I love that Harvey's are made in the USA!

crystal1313 - I bought myself the BFF streamline tote and it IS lighter since the belts are straight across. The BFF convertible clutch is 15.6 oz. empty, and the BFF streamline is 1 lb. 6 oz. empty. I just weighed mine. The only problem with the streamline is that I feel, for the size of the bag, the strap is too narrow! It's exactly the same strap as on the convertible clutch, so if you load your streamline down, the strap will definitely cut into your shoulder. You can order a thicker strap from Harveys but it costs $20. I got one and it made a huge difference. But if you're not a heavy packer then the thinner strap will probably be fine.

Good to know 707MickeyGirl!! I thought that strap looked the same size as the CC! I have the thicker strap on my CT and that part was totally comfortable, the weight of the CT just got heavy as the day went on, and I didn't have it loaded down either. Can't wait to get my Streamline and test it out!! And $20 isn't too bad for an extra strap! I appreciate your input and advice =)

And DharmaLou, I don't know if you saw my other post..........but if you ever need or want to sell your Mickey Loves Minnie carriage ring tote, you can PM me! No idea if you would ever want to, just throwing it out there

DharmaLou, if you ever need or want to sell your Mickey Loves Minnie carriage ring tote, I would be interested!

I have a BFF convertible clutch that I used at the parks and it was great! I also have a MCKY CT that I used at the parks and it got really heavy as the day went on. I asked for a BFF streamline tote for my bday, hoping it is lighter since the belts are straight across instead of woven. I love that Harvey's are made in the USA!

Oh sorry, I wasn't really clear - I have that style of bag, but in the Jack/Sally print and another in the Cinderella/Lady Tremaine & Lucifer print. I don't have the Mickey Loves Minnie one.

crystal1313- I hear you about the weight getting heavier as the day goes on! I'm thinking about changing bags mid-day after the pool break... using a crossbody part of the day and a backpack part of the day. I think switching up the carrying method will make a difference.
