Customer Reviews Vera Bradley Keychain

Very disappointed in the quality. Bought the Charcoal Medallion pattern, it is my fifth little hipster. The strap is so wrinkled, it will take a long time to try to get the wrinkles out. The material is of a cheaper quality than my other hipsters. Think the bag was steamed before shipping to me because the paper receipt enclosed in the bag was terribly wrinkled too. Think VB may have a new manufacture of this bag? Don't know, but won't be buying another one anytime soon. I would return but am too lazy.

The pattern, Desert Floral, is beautiful but the style was just too small for what I generally carry. I'm looking forward to getting the pattern in a larger style.

I have 30+ Vera Bradley bags and the Iconic RFID Little Hipster in the Go Fish pattern is not the same quality as my other VB bags. The Go Fish pattern is darling, the design is perfect for travel, but hardware is cheap. For one, the buckles are not the embossed VB buckles, and there are 2 different types of zippers on the bag. The zipper for the wallet pocket is cheap-looking and difficult to open and close. I am so disappointed in this bag. I hope this is not an indication of the future of VB products.

Dislike the new design/shape and strap. Why ruin a good thing? I also don't like the zipper pulls (looks/feels cheap) bring back the signature Vera Bradley ribbon pull. What a bummer.

I'm really disappointed with the outside zipper on this bag. It drags, unlike the nylon zippers on the older bags. And I don't really need the pocket for a battery pack. Just not Vera Bradley quality. I should've listened to others who reviewed this bag. Wish I had not made this purchase.

I do not like the new charging feature on the side pocket of the purse. I really liked the magnet that would hold that pocket closed. That was one of the features I liked about the older versions. Also, the top zipper is black and the zipper for the wallet compartment is silver. Just doesn't look right. I will use it, but just not as satisfied as I expected to be. This is my third purse for this style, but the first with the new charging feature.

The style isn't the same as previous little hipster.s that I have, which I loved. Unfortunately, they are getting older and a bit shabby now. My son got me this one as a gift but I don't like it. The outside wall zipper pocket doesn't open as wide as my others that is and there is no magnetic clip on outer back pocket. I worry my cell phone could fall out.

This is my 5th little hipster and as much as I love the pattern, I will not be using as often. I don't understand why they keep changing this purse. They took out the magnet, so now I don't feel assured that my phone won't fall out. The medal zipper is aggravating, most of the time it won't open or close easily and I scratch myself on it at least twice a day. Also, the lining is always bunching up. Won't be buying Vera's hipsters for a while.

I have several of these bags and bought a new one because I liked one of the new patterns. I am disappointed in my purchase. First, I HATE the metal zipper. It is scratchy and cheap. The strap is thinner and shorter than previous versions. Finally, I love the back pocket of the previous design bc it stayed closed with a magnet. Now, my cell phone frequently falls out of this pocket that before was perfect. I actually just went to a outlet and bought a little hipster in an older pattern and gave my brand new other one to my 9 year old. If this is how little hipsters are going to be made from here on out, I have purchased my last one. Vera Bradley, please stop cutting corners and cheapening your brand!

I just received this Little Hipster and am very disappointed. I have several other VB Little Hipster and this one is just not the same so it should not called the same. The zipper on the money/cc pocket is too short so it is more difficult to get your cards/money in or out. The zipper is a heavy gold metal with a silver pull and does not match the top zipper which is a nylon zipper. The metal one make the bag look cheap!. Also, the iconic Vera Bradley zipper pulls are missing and have been replaced with a plain leather/vinyl that also look cheap. The back pocket has a new charger station which may be fine for some persons but not for me. The magnet that held the contents of the pocket has gone missing and is sorely missed as items can fall out of the pocket easily. The strap is narrower and twists easily. The buckle holding the strap used to have the VB brand on it and has been replaced with a plain one. The inside pocket zipper is a different color than the one on the outside...three different zippers is not quality manufacturing! Please, Vera Bradley, bring back the old Little Hipster !

Something has gone awry at Vera Bradley. I own several Little Hipsters and am so disappointed in this one that I am returning it and will not purchase from VB again until they bring back the originals. The problems with this bag are as follows: 1. The wallet at the front of the purse has a zipper that is so mismatched to he bag itself. It is an industrial size metal and his much smaller than the previous bags the wallet will not open wide enough for ease and comfort of use. 2. Speaking of zippers. This bag has 3 different colored zippers. Inside is royal blue plastic, top is navy plastic (hooray) and the front is gold/brass colored metal. The zippers should all be the same. 3. The zipper pulls have been replaced with leather/vinyl? pulls and the inside pocket has a tiny metal pull. Whatever happened to the beautiful iconic Vera Bradley Ribbon pulls??? 4. The back pocket that was most used for cell phones has lost the magnet that helped to keep any items inside from falling out. Lay the purse down now and you are sure to lose whatever is in that back pocket. 5. Last but not least is the new strap. It is narrower than previous straps and gets tangled easy. The metal rings that allow for resizing the strap are now just plain metal. Gone is the nice ring with the Vera Bradley logo. Overall, I am grossly disappointed in the decline in quality of this bag. I was going to order another type of bag but the reviews on many bags are just like this one. Seems customers are rapidly becoming disgruntled with the cost cutting redesign of Vera Bradley's best items.

My husband purchased this bag for me in Winterberry- he knew I loved the style as I have had 2 previous Little Hipsters. I have used it for 3 months now and feel that is long enough. EVERYTIME I use it the newer narrow strap twists and it drives me crazy. My older Little Hipster with the wider strap NEVER did this. I miss the magnetic snap on the outside pocket and I think it not smart to design this feature in a small bag as chargers are all different sizes and they weigh alot for a small bag and also may not fit in the pocket provided. And to close I do not care for the zipper on the front that does not match the zipper on the top of the bag. I never had a problem with the old front zipper. These changes may have saved your company money, but after reading the reviews I see that I am not the only customer unhappy with the changed made to this bag.

I bought the Winter Berry Little Hipster at a gift shop in a hospital and I really don't like it. The new charger ready in the hipster takes up too much room and makes the zipper on top of the hipster buckle...I like the old Little Hipsters..please bring them back...Also the hospital will not let me refund it...

I was so excited to get the little hipster in lotus blossom. I did not look at it closely in the store I was really bummed. The magnet on side pocket is gone, the zipper on front of bag does not open as far, hard to get cards, cash etc.The zipper also is very large and looks industrial. Does not blend in with bag. I hope this is not the way little hipster will continue to be made because I will not buy it!

This was the bag I bought ALL the time but now with no magnetic closure and Some wasted area for a battery pack I will NEVER carry around they have ruined it. They has also ruined the Mini Hipster with that battery pack thing--The little mini hipster was perfect the way it was but now it does not have enough room!!

I own the non-RFID version of this bag and love, LOVE it. I was shopping another site for a small, RFID crossbody bag, and thought I'd see what VB had to offer. After reading reviews, it appears you took away my favorite features of this style: outside pocket with MAGNETIC closure, full zip around of built-in wallet section, wide cloth strap. Nope, you need to go back to original style and just add RFID protection. Period. Back to eBags now to find a purse for travel.

I should have read the reviews. The omitted magnet closure on this new version makes the purse too awkward shaped when your phone is in the outer pocket. I also can't comprehend the concept behind the charger pocket and grommet. Loved the new pattern but new bag design is just not functional for me :-(

I have so many little hipsters but the new ones are NOT so great! Why change the security snap and the strap width? Thankfully, that horrible nylon lining is gone but why would you change what isn't broken? AND please tone down the LOUD patterns. What happened to the prettier quieter patterns that made us love the little hipster so much? AND PLEASE BRING BACK THE SOPHIE in quiet classy patterns!

I was so excited to get this in a beautiful new print. I already own about 10 and they're perfect for someone who likes to travel lightly. I must've overlooked the description and assumed it was the same but with added RFID protection and the charger pocket. I was really disappointed to find it no longer has the hidden magnetic closure on the backside which I absolutely loved and found very useful. Unfortunately, I don't think I'll be buying anymore of the newer versions.

The RFID Little Hipster has been my go-to bag for many years. It has gone through some style changes, but the dimensions have stayed the same. Imagine my surprise when the bag depth is now 1/4" smaller. That might not seem like a lot, but it is. This bag will be going back, and I won't be purchasing again until the dimensions go back. Also, 1/4" less, but still the same price.

The pattern, Provence Paisley, is wonderful. I am disappointed in changes being made to the "Little Hipster". I should have returned it, but did not notice the changes until I used the bag. First, I am not the only one that noticed the lack of Vera Bradley signature RIBBONS on the zipper pull-tabs and the progressively cheaper ribbon quality. Then, there is no consistency in the construction of the POCKET opening length. My cell phone, with the Gorilla case fit perfectly in the pocket of my first Little Hipster. I cannot use the phone in the case (7 long, 5/8 inch wide) with the last two construction revisions! The addition of the RFID fabric may have made the bag a bit stiffer, but the last revision is the stiffest making the inside zippered area able to hold much less. In addition, the pocket on the last revision has lost its piping along the edge. Lastly, the latest change is the construction of the middle zipper and location where the strap is sewn on. PLEASE go back to the original construction of the Little Hipster over the shoulder bag.

I have purchased this purse several times. They now have changed the width of the purse. I will never buy another Vera Bradley product. Their shipping almost costs as much as some of their items on sale. I used to love the product and the company. :( Not anymore

I have many bags,but sorry I ordered this one,to small,can not fit phone etc,if it was wider

This bag was smaller than I was expecting. Putting things in and taking them out is awkward. I will be returning it.
