Stylish Travel Backpack for Women & Men - Airline Approved Carry On Backpack with Laptop Compartment - Perfect for Business Trips, Commuting & Weekend Getaways

I looked at several backpack to take as a personal item on an upcoming long haul flight. While I would have liked even more capacity, I really needed a smaller size to make sure it worked on some of the international flights we'll be taking. I finally found a winner in this bag! I ordered the khaki. It has gold zippers, etc., and I really love the look. The material almost has a sheen to it that adds a nice polished look. I like that there is a strap that will allow it to slide over a rolling suitcase handle, and I love that there is a "360-degree" main compartment that acts like a mini-suitcase. I was able to pack an extra outfit and pair of pjs (lightweight and thinner fabrics) curling iron, small crossbody purse (with gloves packed inside), beanie, and bagged travel pillow in this section. I also packed medications and accessories in the small zipper compartments provided here. I packed a small cosmetics bag, my "refresher bag" (toothbrush/toothpaste, face wipes, trial size moisturizer tube, etc), and my "comfort essentials" bag (lotion, advil, hand san, chap stick, etc) in the front zipper pocket. I'll put snacks in the small zipper pouch in the front at the bottom. The secret back zipper is where I'll put my travel wallet and ID. I'll put my phone in the pocket with the headphones space. A 24oz Owala bottle fit in the other pocket but I had to stretch it out at first. Then it slid in and out easily but the pocket was deep and secure enought it wasn't close to tipping out. The back compartment is where my electronics bag, book, and a few other items will go. So! It fit all the things I wanted it to. I used mesh bags for all the small bags I packed inside backpack as it allowed items to shift as needed. I would have like for this backpack to have a place for a portable phone charger to connect to and a way to make it a cross body. I actually purchased a luggage strap from Amazon (with gold clasps) and some d-rings to accomplish this. A local taylor is clipping some of the extra webbing from the straps and using it on the in and outside of the bag to seccure the d-ring clamps I also found on Amazon in the same gold as the straps and luggage finishings. It would have been nice if there was a way to tuck the straps in when I am carrying it as a cross body but once the extra webbing is trimmed from the end of the straps, they will tuck into the trolley strap at the bag so they aren't loose and don't get in the way. After looking at countless bags, I'm so happy with this one - especially with the extra customization! I haven't traveled with it yet, so I can't speak to the durability but I am satisfied with the quality, and I'm particular about the look and feel of items. This one passed the test!!
