Once we decided on Europe for our honeymoon I started shopping for various clothes and items that we needed for the trip. I needed clothes anyway (someone has been enjoying too many sweets these days!) so this was a good excuse opportunity for a mini shopping spree! One of the more difficult things to purchase though was a purse to use while traveling. After reading online how prevalent theft is throughout Paris (and any city really) I wanted to protect my stuff as much as possible while we do our touristy stuff.
I am not exaggerating when I say there are TONS of options online. So picking a bag would be easy, right? I had a hard time finding actual reviews and photographs f the bags to see what they were really like for use. Plus, they were hard to find in stores to actually inspect them. I finally settled on the THE Travelon Anti-Theft Bag, which I got on Amazon.
There are four main security features in this bag. First, the strap has a wire sewn into it that makes the strap slash-resistant. People can't cut through your strap and take your bag. Second, the whole body of the bag has a metal mesh under the fabric. This means that even if someone were to cut your bag, all of your stuff would stay inside. Third, each zipper pull clasps to the bag. This makes it more noticeable if someone were to attempt to get in your bag without you noticing.
