Customer Reviews Baggallini Calais Crossbody Bag

I had this bag for about 5 months, and was disappointed when the color of the hardware started to change on the large clasp (front and center of the purse) from silver to a cheap looking brassy tone. Bag was not laundered. Attempts to contact the company (through the 'contact us!' forms on their websites) to discuss quality were ignored. Buyer beware.

The strap is shiny and cheap feeling. It is slippery and keeps sliding off my shoulder.

I had been using a bag very similar to this one (also a baggallini purse) but it lacked two wonderful features that the Calais bag has: the extra zip pocket, full size, on the front, and the zip coin pouch in the front organizer section. It really does keep things in place and easy to access quickly. The one possible weak link is the width of the bottom. (That's why I described it as "very nearly perfect." If I could change one thing in the design, it would be to add one more inch or so to the main section of the bag. Then I could describe it as "absolutely perfect." I'm in my seventies and have been carrying Baggallini bags for decades, but at my age, I'm still on a quest for the ultimate bag that meets my every need. Please bring an end to my quest with just one more inch.

I recently bought this bag in the Blush Python print. It's a beautiful bag, and I was very impressed by its high quality construction. After using it briefly, I ordered a 2nd bag in the Sterling Shimmer color. Great compartments for staying organized and RFID protection too. Thanks Baggallini

I love this purse!!! It washes up nicely:) It's the perfect color!

This bag, while relatively compact, holds and organizes all my necessities. I have had a variety of Baggallinis over the past 15 years and have come to rely on their light weight, functional designs.

I have shoulder pain, but this bag is wonderful! No need for a wallet, it holds my Pro Max and my everyday needs. Just needs more colors!

I have at least a half-dozen different Baggs but there was always something not quite right for an every day bag - usually too big. The Calais Bagg is just 7" tall & 3" deep with 3 sections to organize all my "stuff", plus a "pocket" large enough for my iPad Mini & a hidden pocket that I use for my phone. I am short, 5'1", & I wear my new Bagg crossbody. The 3" depth is a nice size & allows me to carry my wallet with all my cards. I am hoping to start carrying just a couple cards, money & license in the front section which is set up just like a wallet with RFID & very secure. All in all it works for me. My Bagg is silver which is a pretty grey shade - good for any season.

Bought this a couple weeks ago. Love everything about it! The color is bright, the size is perfect for what I need and I love the hidden pocket for the cell phone as well as the built in area for cash and credit cards. Ive owned many Baggallinis and I know they are made to last!

Very well made and really great looking ! I love the color for spring. I have owned so many bagallini bags and products for more than 25 years. I went to high school with one of the founders who really was a stickler for quality. Glad to see products are still fabulous!

This is my second attempt at this purse. I really wanted to like it. I did. And it is very cute (Imo). Very lightweight. However, once you start filling it up, it seems it has less inside space than anticipated. I felt that it became v full, very quickly, and didn’t lay comfortably on my hip. It kind of sticks out and doesn’t lay flat as crossbody should. I really tried and i didn’t even out too much in it!

I love this purse for everyday because it is light and smart. Gorgeous!

The size a little bigger but despite that it’s a great looking bag. The material is very nice and good quality.

Is lightweight but has all the features you need. Love the phone pocket!

I have the Calais Crosbody bag in three colors--Black, Tan, and Green. It used to be Provence and had gold hardware. It is exactly what I wanted! I would love to purchase it again in lovely pastel colors. I use the Black on every day!

I have to carry my eye glasses and like to carry sunglasses and the center of this bag offered plenty of room for both with my cell. Lots of pockets for smaller items. The wallet being on the front makes for easy access. LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT IT!

I LOVE this purse. Lightweight and so many pockets!! Just right for me.

Just started using this bag and it's almost perfect. It needs more card slots. Ir maybe I need less cards!

I love this bag. It is exactly like the one I have had for 12 years. Everything was the same accept the detachable handle which I do love because I can always get it to lay flat. I love the bright gold tones. It is an honor and pleasure to use this bag. I was also able to take part in a sale...sale or not I would have still purchased this bag. The last one was not really big but held a lot of stuff. Great style.

I just purchased this bag in the Midnight Blossom Print and I love it! It's light weight, easy to organize and comfortable to carry. I wanted the same style into carry during the warm months so I ordered the bag in Shimmer Blush. The color is actually more of a muddy taupe. Disappointed, it will be returned.

Good size. Easy to use. Pocket selection makes it easy to organize.

Have had this bag a couple of weeks. It organizes everything I use on a daily basis without being heavy to carry. No need for a regular wallet with this bag. Love the chambray color..a good neutral.

This is my third purse. I like it so much I had to have in different colors. The organization makes it the best purse!

I bought the bag and loved it so much but wanted a dressier purse so I purchased the silver! I would love to see this purse in gold!!

Enough compartments for tickets, cards, money, glasses, etc, but not too many. Comfortable to carry crossbody or shoulder.
