Briggs & Riley Rhapsody Expandable Tote

This tote was perfect for a week away overseas. The right amount of space and organization for holding everything one needs for international travel.

Perfect travel bag! The back slides onto my other Briggs and Riley hard shell carry on luggage handle. I love that the purse will not fall off walking through the airport and the best part is it has a zipper on the bottom to expand the height! This way I carry can my bottled water and all my travel items in one place. It has a zipper to close the purse so nothing falls out and fits under the seat.

I wasn't sure if I would like this bag, but turns out that I love it. The bottle holder inside is very handy. Rather than have a purse and another bag for water, heels, misc etc. , I put it all into this one bag. And I like that it has the full zipper closure ! This was a good purchase especially during the sale.

This is a good bag. Very durable and easy to clean. Do want a slightly wider section to secure my 15” laptop. The biggest change to make is the shoulder straps. The straps are too stiff. Constantly in the way. When stacking on luggage I need to squeeze the straps in between the extension handle of the luggage to keep them tucked away. When unzipping the bag I am constantly fighting the straps.

During a trip, I was having a lot of trouble working all of the pockets, zippers and compartments of my backpack. While going up an escalator, the woman ahead of me had this Briggs & Riley tote. I asked her about the bag, and she gave a summary in the short ride up. It was precisely what I needed. For me, it fits things and items are easily accessible. I used it for a short trip as an expanded bag, and was surprised everything fit comfortably. The cons: the pocket for the computer is for small computers only. I wish it was just half an inch wider. When it is full as an expanded tote, it can be heavy. The pros: accessible pockets, fits everything in an organized way, works great on top of a roller bag when navigating the airport, looks very good, is lightweight. Much better than a backpack for me.

Functional elegance. Fits well on the shoulder. Internal compartments are thoughtfully placed. External compartments provide ease of use.

My wife loves it. Very functional, quality material, and perfect size to rest on top of your roller bag.

I am absolutely loving my expandable tote! Not only does it look cute, but it also holds everything I need. It has the perfect number of pockets, which makes using the bag even more convenient. The materials used to make the bag are very sturdy, and it has been holding its shape well. I would recommend it to anyone!

I was disappointed that it was not made out of the same material as the carry on. However I do love the size and weight of it

I bought this piece because I wanted a carryon that was without wheels and smaller than my other B&R carryon but still could carry a lot and match my roller bag. This is perfect and I had my first trip with it last week--great pockets inside and out, love the expandable bottom, and easy on my shoulder or easy to attach to my roller bag. Totally perfect. So glad I snagged it.
