Hi @maximillian 

 

you are right.   I have a sling bag... it is awkward to carry, too.

@Carmie , that is the style I use as well.  I love it, especially when travelling.

the one that my DD carries is LuLuLemon Everywhere Belt Bag. and very reasonably priced. 

very popular, sits at your chest, she carries it all the time. 

she is not big chested, so might be more comfy. 

but u do have to raise your arm to put around your chest/back. 

 

why not a waist bag?  seems the easiest to use with your arm/shoulder issue.  so many good ones nowadays.

Why not a lightweight crossbody??  Baggallini has many.


 

Baggallini is no longer the same.  The new one's are made of recycled water bottles and poorly made and not worth the price.

 

They look cheap, although lightweight.  I'm through with that company.

Re: Baggallini - I'm a big fan and have bought more than I'd care to admit (or dare to count!) and I agree that there have been changes in recent years. Some styles have fewer compartments or compartments that used to have zippers now have magnets which I'm sure saves them money. But I'm very picky about the layout of my purses and won't buy anything that isn't comfortable to use and also secure. 

I've bought almost all my Baggallinis at Marshals and TJMaxx at very reasonable prices- mostly $20-$30 for small to medium sized bags - so I definitely feel like they're worth the cost. I don't care if they're made from recycled plastic, they're still lightweight and durable and work very well for me.
