Pls tell me WHY I want a Baggalini?!?!

[CathieArms]

I keep hearing such great things about these bags, but I'm not sure what's so great about them. Someone help me??? I've got a LeSportSac Cross-body bag that I was thinking about taking to WDW, but I might consider a Baggalini if they're *really* that great.

I don't have a ton of stuff to carry, but I want whatever would be the easiest to carry and - being Pooh-sized - the longer the strap, the better.

Thanks!

My Baggallini is made of a plastic-y material and is not pleasant to carry around WDW, IMHO. You can get them in fabrics though. There are lots of compartments in many of these bags, but I find it to be too confusing. I have much better luck with my VB hipster.

You will find a million people who say opposite on the Dis

For reference, I carry a LeSportSac bag with me spring/summer/fall

At Disney I LOVE my baggallini messenger (6 Disney trips)

At the recommendation of the Dis, I purchased a VB hipster and disliked it as a park bag (you can't carry much and have it close)

I enjoy having the more "waterproof" material (the VB bag would be soaked for days if it rained). I enjoy having a million pockets. I enjoy that I can find everything easily without taking everything else out because of the million pockets. The Baggallinis hold up VERY well (my daily work bag is a baggallini and still looks new 2 years later)

I love the patterns of the LeSportSacs but I love the functionality of the Baggallini

If your cross body lesportsac is waterproofed then I'd just go with that. I can't wait to use my baggilinni. You should just go by Marshall's or TJMaxx and look for one there. If you find one you like, then it will be a whole lot cheaper than buying one online and you'll get the chance to check it out in person.

I bought one after all the years of it being raved about on the DIS. Hate it...

Used mine once. Never again. It doesn't sit right on me for some reason. If I adjust it to stay on my shoulder it always moves to cut into my neck. It isn't an easily accessable cross body bag IMO. I'm not sure why so many love it. If I did put more than a few things it it is was not comfortable as a slightly heavier bag. Maybe you'll hear some better reviews that mine. If you are interested in buying one- mine is hot pink.

I either do small like a mini hipster or if I need big I do a backpack with extra cushions on the back unless someone in the party has a stroller!
