I have several of these Patagonia bags and they're great for travel and for carrying books and stuff around during a long day in the city. Very lightweight, durable and practical.

I bought this bag originally as a back up diaper bag for our trip to Europe. Not only did it fill this role perfectly, but once we were back home I gave up my other diaper bag (heavy and bulky) and I have only used this one since!

Great bag. Wanted a Musette-style bag for schlepping a few things to the beach or when out with my kids. Like the bottle pockets and the strap with its mesh padding and adjustable length is great. Minimalist and perfect!

This is a good, lightweight bag but I think the dimensions are slightly off. The bag is more like 16.5 inches wide unless you count sticking something in the outside pockets. It still will make a great bag for an upcoming trip abroad. Wish it was waterproof.

Great for travel, folds into its own pouch, lightweight, holds a lot without the bulk, cross body for easy use and carry, but can be shortened for shoulder carry. Overall a great bag.

I use this in combination with an Ona Roma camera insert to comfortably carry various cameras around all day when travelling. One 35mm Nikon, a couple of lenses, and a Polaroid SX-70 all fit nicely in the bag along with film. The bag is very lightweight and folds up quite small, making it easy to pack in a carry on.

I bought this to take with me on a vacation to Spain, it was great for toting essentials around during the day and was large enough to fit a water bottle, guidebook, sweater, snacks, hat, etc etc - it actually fit a lot more than I expected. When you don't have as much to carry, it can serve a similar purpose as a cross-body purse. Love that it's so lightweight and folds into itself for convenient packing. I bought this in the purple color and my husband even preferred carrying this over his backpack! Zipper pockets on exterior and interior help keep things organized, but it doesn't have a solid bottom so I did find myself digging for things a bit. Overall a great purchase - very functional, secure, easy to carry.

Very functional travel bag. Very good design, comfortable and folds into its own pouch, which is very convenient. I love the bottle pockets and the color is very nice. Love the compact size of this bag too, can hold a little (wallet, keys) or a lot (add in a sweatshirt). Great overall. I have 2. Get lots of compliments.

This is ultra light but amply tough. It stuffs flat into 7"x10", and it has a built-in, zippered pocket for packing in Patagonia MLC carry-on bag or Refugio backpack for airplane leg of trip. It opens into 15"x9½"x5", incognito, cross-chest shoulder bag for daytripping. 12"x9"x4½" Tenba PP12 padded insert loaded with DSLR body, telephoto and prime lenses and paraphenalia fits perfectly inside bag. The zippered internal pocket holds passport and wallet. The internal hook holds a room key. The zippered external pocket holds iPhone, Moleskin travel log and pen. Teh second external water bottle pocket holds a rolled-up boonie hat.

Overall this is an excellent bag. It is easily the best of the lightweight/packable style messenger bags (I have previously owned timbuk2's version). It would be five stars but for an issue with the strap buckle. It is easy to adjust but can open unexpectedly. I clipped a carabiner through the loop at the end of the strap to ensure it never runs completely through the buckle, problem solved. But a product you have to hack does not deserve five stars.

How cute is this? It comes with a small mirror and brush applicator at the bottom! I love the color too (Blue Lazulite). I noticed it's better to apply when the skin is a bit moisturized. It goes on a lot smoother and comes out much nicer. I also love pur minerals products and the company itself. They are listed on Peta for being a cruelty-free and responsible company. I think the price is very good for a mineral eye-shadow that also comes with a mirror and an applicator. And with Zappos free next day shipping? Love it! Thanks Zappos for another great product and shopping experience.

Purminerals eye shadows are the easiest shadows to work with and are never messy like other mineral make up.

Now, I'll admit that this eye shadow isn't as pigmented as I expected (I like my shadow to be very bright with only one or two applications), but it goes on so smoothly. I was astounded when, with only the sponge brush provided with the eye shadow, the shadow smoothed onto my eyelid like silk. The shadow delivered a smooth wash of color with only one layer. I will definitely return to this brand for neutral eye shadows in the future.

This eyeshadow is great! It's super pigmented and is pretty long lasting. Though it is a kind of expensive, I think its worth it. I got this eyeshadow in gold dust, looking for a nice gold-bronzy-shimmery color and its just that. The colors that they show are pretty accurate, too. This color looks great on everyone, I would totally recommend this to a friend!

Actual shade of this item is more of a milk chocolate or cinnamon shade and not at all a dark chocolate as the picture would lead you to believe. Product goes on evenly and smooth but this shade is not noticeable on my eyelid since I am olive toned.

The blue lazulite has very little color pay off. Beautiful color, but I would not buy it again.

I usually love pur cosmetics and use a lot of them, including various eye shadows. This one, however, does not apply well -- either not enough or way too much. Very odd.

Just love Zappos. Ulta had discontined my favorite color in the purminerals eye shadow line, and of course, I found it at Zappos. I love the fast service provided. I received the eye shadow overnight. Thank you Zappos. I will always order from you.
