Comments about Lillian Vernon Travel Messenger Bag:

I have a three year old, and this bag was everything I was hoping for. By far, the most useful compartment is the cell phone, and since i've had this purse I have not once accidentally forgotten my phone at home. The velcro strap is durable so your phone will in no way ever fall out, and even if you jam pack your bag, the magnetic closure will still close. Madly in love with my bag and will be for years to come.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Travel Messenger Bag:

This bag would be perfect for what I need. It holds just enough and more for traveling and using everyday. I take business trips all the time and this would be perfect for the times that I wander around Michigan Ave when convention gets done for the day. It's also the perfect size for running errands around town with my kids.

The only problem was that it sits on my left hip. I need to be able to rummage with my right hand, especially when I am holding my baby on my left hip as well. After 3 kids, I've gotten so used to doing everything with my right hand, that this bag was very inconvenient sitting at my left side, and there's no way to switch it to the right hip.

For me, this was enough to send it back. However, it makes me sad to do so because it would've been perfect!

I had an injury requiring surgery and now use a cane.

I just ordered my third bag (different colors). I love this bag!!!

Comments about Lillian Vernon Travel Messenger Bag:

This bag is fine if you fill it lightly for something like sedately walking around a museum, craft show, or zoo. The large adjustable zipper on the back section allows it to expand to hold souvenirs, maps, etc. The zip section against your body holds cash and credit cards securely. The smaller card pockets inside are good for the few cards used most often. The smaller zips on the front pockets are good in theory to allow you to see what is in there easily, however, in practice, they come down by themselves and unpredictably. When that happens (at the most inopportune times, (like when running for a train or plane!)things come flying out. Also things come flying out of the back section when the flap snap decides to let go (which it does - often). I lost my expensive blue tooth phone headset that way. The phone holder is too large - my phone (Samsung slide phone)tends to get lost in there; however, that is a good thing since the velcro which holds the flap is not reliable and I have found it swinging free on several occasions. Received this as a gift - I would have returned it if I had actually paid my hard-earned $$ for it.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Travel Messenger Bag:

Because I'm constantly running errands with my two small children in tow, I love the "hands free" design - esp. at the grocery store! I find that everything is within easy reach and now I'm always able to find my cell phone. I used to keep my wallet under the flap, but found that keeping it in the back "hidden" zipper compartment makes it easier for me to grab it. My only complaint is that I haven't found it very easy to clean ( I have the tan one). However, I like the bag so much I'm ordering one in black. Hopefully it won't get so grungy.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Travel Messenger Bag:

I've used this for the past 3 years that I've traveled overseas with students, not to mention for a month while in England. I can keep a journal, pens, sunglasses, a mini-umbrella, iPod and camera in addition to smaller items like bandages, memory cards, lipstick, money, "personal items," etc. The phone holder is for a smaller phone, but other than that I find that there is a pocket for everything! I'm an organizing geek and this fits my traveling style!!! In addition, I can throw it in the washing machine and it comes out like new (I have the green bag).

Comments about Lillian Vernon Travel Messenger Bag:

This was the best purchase that I made, (and I made a LOT) for our trip to Disney!! It was so comfortable, I could almost forget it was there. The strap was adjustable even for tall people, and I could still carry my 3-year-old on my hip while wearing it. I wore it on all of the rides, and I never had to dig for anything because everything was so accessible. I will use it for EVERY trip from now on.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Travel Messenger Bag:

Mom to twins..I NEVER have enough hands & this bag is the ANSWER. It fits all of my necessary items so hands are free for kids or stroller. GREAT for grocery shopping when you walk away from the cart too!! I'd purchased many small bags trying to find a good one & this is just big enough to hold wallet/car keys and STILL have room for other essentials. I bought 1 for my daughter too & now am back for my Mom!! You'll LOVE it. Only drawback is you will no longer use all of your expensive bags!!

Comments about Lillian Vernon Travel Messenger Bag:

My only want for this bag, is a bit more room in the main compartment. After I put two sunglasses in, it's a real tight fit for anything else. It would be nice if this area had the same expandable feature as the smaller, zippered on both sides, front one. Otherwise it is very comfortable going across my body. And the strap is really made well and will probably last longer then the bag will! I hope LV keeps selling them, as I will need to replace it at that point. :0)

Service & Delivery comments:

LV is always good at delivering the items I have purchased, in a timely manner! I have been buying from them for over 10 years. And still own quite a lot of those items today. Quality is always good!

Comments about Lillian Vernon Travel Messenger Bag:

I bought this bag because of the cell phone pocket only to be dissapointed. It would not hold my razor phone. I am a mother of two little ones and don't have time to worry about a purse being stolen. This bag is excellent for that purpose. I found that this bag tends to be a little bulky when you fill it.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Travel Messenger Bag:

The design is so strange that I couldn't figure out how to wear this bag. It kept flopping sideways and upside down, and things fell out of the side compartment. The cell phone holder was too small to hold my cell phone, which I think is average size. This bag doesn't hold much at all. I returned it.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Travel Messenger Bag:

I bought this bag to take on a sightseeing trip to D.C. It was perfect! I will take it whenever I travel. I love the cell phone pocket. I could wear the bag on the inside or outside of my coat. It was nice not to have a tired shoulder from a shoulder bag. Items only fall out if you forget to zip the compartments in the flap.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Travel Messenger Bag:

I was pleasantly surprised that this bag looked as good in person as I had hoped. I like the style and though I was worried about it having enough room, those worries were unfounded; it has plenty of pockets and space. The only downside is that it doesn't lay well on my body and it tends to swing around quite a bit which is rather frustrating. All in all however, I was delighted.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Travel Messenger Bag:

I recently purchased this bag for a trip I was taking. I wanted something small that I could wear and take on the plane. Overall it was a great bag. I also use it as an every day bag. The seams are starting to fray and I have only had a little over a month. Also the snap was hard to keep closed unless you made sure everything lined up.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Travel Messenger Bag:

I took this on a trip to Italy, along with the Convertible Boarding Bag, and I used both of them. I liked each one for their own qualities. I felt safe with this being a "hands-free" purse that I wore across, and close to, my body. The only drawback I had was I felt that the flap is a little bit too long and cumbersome when you have to open it to get something inside.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Travel Messenger Bag:

This bag has been great to use for everyday. I love being hands/arms free when I am out with my kids and not having to worry about where my purse is. I am looking forward to traveling more with this purse. Not sure this is a good bag for the winter months, as putting over or under a winter coat seems unrealistic. Also, the lay of the strap makes it slightly uncomfortable to wear on either side. Works best to the left. By far it has been a great purchase.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Travel Messenger Bag:

I had read on this site that the cell phone pocket is too small and that is correct but not a problem as there is plenty of room and pockets inside. However, I was very dissapointed with both the weight and material of the strap. The strap is way too heavy and is not in propotion with the fabric of the bag which is very light-weight. It is also too wide a strap and due to this, cuts into my shoulder. The bag, on me, hangs somewhat crooked which is maybe why they only show this bag as a standalone and do not advertise it with a person actually wearing it. Maybe in winter with clothing on for padding will help but wearing this to an all day outdoors antiques fair in Texas was not the place to break it in. Also, the fabric of the strap acted like velco with the shirt I originally wore. Fortunately, I had a backup shirt of soft cotton that worked much better but the strap now has bits of my originally shirt threads stuck to it.

Got this bag for going to New York for the US Open. It was the perfect bag with all the walking you do in New York and also riding the subway!My cell phone fit perfectly in the pouch and after putting my personal items in it there was room for my camera, not one of those really small ones, a Kodak, plus a bottle of water! I loved the feel of having your purse close to your body in front of you.The gals in my group liked it as well wanting to know where I got it.

Just returned from a cruise where this was standard gear both on and off the boat! This small bag has lots of compartments, keeping your things organized. The strap is adjustable. I felt very comfortable walking in crowds of people; with all the zippers zipped and the magnet closure closed, it would take some work to get into this sucker without you noticing.

This is a practical bag for traveling and still very attractive. I like the fact that you can use it just on your shoulder or over your body. Has lots of storage, which is very handy for travel. I would also consider this for everyday use.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Travel Messenger Bag:

My daughters received this bag as a Christmas gift for their Nintendo DS systems and games and they've loved it. It holds everything: their games, their charger and the hand held game.

I bought one for a trip to DisneyWorld and it was perfect! It fit everything I wanted to take on the trip and as a day bag, it held everything I needed, kept my hands free and was small enough that I could take it on the rides. Being able to adjust the strap means that it fits my eight year old as well as it fits me.

We own the khaki, the purple and the green but I would have loved a print!

Comments about Lillian Vernon Travel Messenger Bag:

I really like the shape of the bag, but it is really not wide enough nor deep enough. I used it on a trip, and found that I had to put my checkbook in my carry-on luggage. I could not fit it into the purse. If it were just 3 or 4 inches wider and an inch or two higher, it would be perfect. The fabric is great, easy to care for. The shape is great! Just wish it was a little larger.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Travel Messenger Bag:

I bought this purse because I was looking forward to a small, organized purse after 5 years of carrying a diaper bag. This purse does not disappoint. It is very small, but because it is so organized, it is easy to fit more stuff into it than you would think. I still use my full size wallet, and I can get it in no problem. PLUS a bunch of other stuff that would get lost in a larger purse. That's the best part of this bag--nothing gets lost!!! And I love the cell phone pocket. It is small, but so many of the newer cell phones are small too, so they fit perfectly. It is also great to be able to wear this purse across my body, securely and comfortably.


The only downside is that, while the magnetic latch is strong, it is sometimes hard to get it to latch, and unless this purse is latched, I can definitely see things falling out. The only other slight problem I have is that the strap's material is a little rough--it chafes my neck after a while.

All in all, a great purchase.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Travel Messenger Bag:

This goes well with my toddler's diaperbag. It is lightweight, organized, and allows me to have my entire purse contents in addition to the diaper bag which is still necessary. I think even when I can retire the diaper bag, I will keep this for everyday use. It is so easy to carry! My phone was always lost in my purse until I got this bag. In addition, I can actually find my keys. When I leave a store it is easy to get them out so I am not standing in a parking lots searching through my purse, which just isn't safe. The material quality is very good. The straps are sturdy. I would highly recommend this product!

Comments about Lillian Vernon Travel Messenger Bag:

This purse really surprised me with it's quality. The strap is thick and strong. The magnetic snap in front never pops open. I don't need a separate wallet because the inside holds all of your credit cards and cash. Plus I have room for a pack of toddler wipes, a pull-up, plastic silverware, and bendable straws. In desperation once I put it in the washing machine and it came out looking like new. There is just some slight material puckering around the edge of the cover. But I expected it to fall apart so I'm ahead there! I get so many compliments on the bag and the fact that I can have my hands free to assist my three year old. I love it!

Ordered and received the eggplant colored bag just in time for a trip to Phoenix. Size more than adequate to hold everything I would need until I had access to my luggage and going thru airport security was super simple (except for that pesky "take off your shoes" thing). I don't like to keep track of a purse so this is a great bag and I am looking forward to using it for a long time!

Comments about Lillian Vernon Travel Messenger Bag:

I really needed a bag like this for daytrips. I do like it, but it only seems to lay properly against my body when I wear it on the left side and I would much prefer to wear it on the right. The compartments can be a little tight, but there are lots of them to fit all I need for a day out. I do not regret buying it but I am not using it as often as I thought I would. My friend bought something similar at a department store and I think I like hers better!

Comments about Lillian Vernon Travel Messenger Bag:

This bag is great! Because it goes across my shoulder, I can keep it close to my body for security reasons, and it keeps my hands free to deal w/ my two kids and all their gear! Many compartments help me keep things organized. It is also roomy enough to hold a thin wipes case and extra diaper so I don't have to lug a diaper bag around too!

Comments about Lillian Vernon Travel Messenger Bag:

I love this so much that I have two, different colors of course, and I have purchased them for many family members. I usually have high-end, brand name purses, but this one is so great that I use it more often! Really great for travel. Perfect for passports and plane tickets. Clean, neat lines and very easy organization. It just doesnt get any better!

Comments about Lillian Vernon Travel Messenger Bag:

My husband and I are going to Cancun for our 10 yr. anniversary and I didn't want to take the old fashion " fanny pack " but I wanted something that I could wear and not bunch up my clothes and something I could take to dinner. I started using it now and I just LOVE IT !!! It was a good , wise purchase.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Travel Messenger Bag:

I bought this bag in reality just for when i was going to France. It was comfortable and i didn't have to carry 10 thousand bags at once.I knew my passport and money was safe, plus i had room for water and an umbrella and even a different shirt incase mine got soaked from the rain. I also use this when i go to water parks or amusement parks and its great because i can pack food, we all know park food is expensive. I also use it when i go to school, i can carry around the necessities without having to go back and forth to my locker all day.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Travel Messenger Bag:

After having my wallet stolen at a casino, I was looking for something more secure to keep my credit cards and cash. This really did the trick - the over the body strap keeps my hands free and the numerous zippers, snaps and compartments keep my valuables safe. I plan on using this for travel,or any other time where security is important.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Travel Messenger Bag:

I purchased the purse to use when traveling this summer and was extremely pleased. The item became soiled of course due to the excessive use of being worn everyday. However, I used a landry product packaged as a wipe carried in a small packet and that took care of the problem.

Best Uses:
Everyday, Night On The Town, Running Errands
Bottom Line:

Comments about Lillian Vernon Travel Messenger Bag:

I like the idea of having my purse around me at all times, instead of just hanging on my shoulder or just sitting in a shopping cart for someone to take while your not looking. Purse snatchings are up in the area of arizona where I live, and the fact that this purse is around you at all times makes it a little less likely that a thief will try to grab it and run, unless he wants to bring attention to himself.
I put it across myself before I even get out of the car, and do not take it off until I am safely back in my car. My neice's grandmother liked it so well she brought one to. It's not the biggest purse in the world, but I do feel safe with it.

Need a bit more room. My wallet and cell phone didn't fit and I had to grope for my ID. Would be better if there was a detatchable card holder or something of that sort.
Handy, but I'm sizing up even though the larger one only comes in black & brown.
