Arrived in specified time. Very nicely packaged. The style, pattern, color and workmanship are extraordinary. This is the perfect size to fit everything you need without being cumbersome!! I love it.

Thought I was ordering the crossover carryall which is my very favorite, but this would be my second pick.

This is the perfect size for me! I love all the pockets and zipped compartments! The Midnight Blues is also my favorite design/fabric! I've had other friends comment on what the name of the style is because they love the size. Love my Vera!

Really like the pattern and style. I love the weight of the bag, nice and light. I always like the organizational pockets.

I have been buying On the Go style purses since I first discovered Vera Bradley several years ago. It holds everything I need and it's easy to access anything inside when at a store. Also I only buy crossbody purses, so easy to adjust strap when shopping in stores or doing sight-seeing when on trips. LOVE this style, please don't ever take it away.

Like this purse but not as much as the Mandy. Needs more inside pockets.

The name for this bag is true, I ordered this in Midnight Paisley and I really like the print. The bag is functional, not to big, not to small just right to hold the things you need for everyday and travel and light in weight which is an added plus when traveling.

I've been wanting a crossbody for a long time, and this one is the perfect size! I generally carry pretty large purses, and this one is big enough for the essentials without being too large to wear as a crossbody. Seems like some crossbodies are very small, but this one is great!

This bag is very roomy, more room than I expected. It is very lightweight on it's own, but it can be loaded up with lots of things in it. I don't like shopping with big, bulky and heavy bags. This one is perfect for me. It's what I would call a medium size. It has a variety of pretty colors and I really like it.

Not too many pockets, but enough. Cute as shoulder bag, but easy to convert and wear as a cross body.

On The Go Crossbody is my third one. I use it for golf and casual wear, and this one is neutral enough that it goes with most of my outfits. I love all of the pockets!

I had a few of the old On the Go bags and had to stop using them when I got an iPhone--the side slip pockets were just too small to carry my phone in, and I need an external easy-access pocket for my phone. The old On the Go was also a bit smaller, which is too small for convenience now, and lacked the internal zip pocket. This new one has the slip pockets inside plus the zip pocket inside, the zip pocket outside, and the end slip pockets are big enough for my iPhone 5s with its Otterbox Defender case on! Perfect! I also love the bit of stiffness the microfiber gives the bag--it gives it more structure without weighing it down, and I love that. It doesn't turn into a shlumpy saggy sack. I also LOVE that the strap is longer! On the old ones, the strap wasn't long enough, even at its longest setting, to be comfortable for cross body, and this is a cross body style! The shoulder strap is a little stiff at the beginning, but after using it for only one day, it broke in nicely. I love all of the fabulous improvements on this bag! And I love that it's available in brown! Awesome redo on this bag--I now love the On the Go!

This crossbody is a bit smaller than I thought, but still holds everything that I need on a day to day basis. I love that I can convert from shoulder bag to crossbody, especially when grocery shopping. It means I don't have to watch my cart all the time as I have my purse on me.

Love all the pockets. The slide pockets inside & on the ends & the zippers, one inside & one on the outside. All these pockets keep all my items organized & easy to find. The main body is large enough for my large multi functional money/credit card wallet, small hair brush, 2 medium bottles of pills that I need to carry & there is still plenty of empty space left. Bag is not as heavy as the leather bag I used previously, therfore it is easier to carry. I love it. I purchased the Emerald Paisley & I also love the pattern.

Purchased my third On The Go handbag in Moon Bloom. This bag is the perfect size, has lots of organizational slip and zipper pockets, and has a zip closure so nothing falls out. This is my favorite bag because the bag has a zip pocket on the back and one on the inside. On The Go keeps everything I carry organized and has extra room left if I need to carry a few more items.

I bought this purse in rio and it has worked out great. I've had it for a few weeks now and all my friends have asked me what style it is. My mom and some of her friends have bought the same cross body as well. I would definetly recommend this to anybody. And about the pattern if you like rio, do not be scared to try the bold colors because it includes such vivid colors its good for kids and teenagers and it goes with a lot of outfits. Items i could fit: -my sunglasses -my regular glasses in a bulky case -my 4 by 3 wallet -a small hairbrush -the travel size bath and body works perfume (the large bottles also fit) -my iPhone 5 (iPhone 6 and 6 plus also fit) -an eos lip balm -ear buds -iphone charger overall this is a very useful bag.

I have been buying On the Go for at least 8 years now. Have had at least 20 over the years. They fit everything I take with me daily, just perfectly.I love having my hands free with this great crossbody. I carry an iPhone and it fits nice and snuggly in the side pocket. In the other, I carry my sunglasses case. A word on the pattern: haven't been real excited about a pattern for several years, now. I love this new Sierra pattern! I'm a more subdued person and nor only is this pattern lovely, it goes with most everything! Buy it! You won't be disappointed!

In about the past 2 years, I have purchased 10 Vera Bradley purses for myself in addition to many other VB items! I enjoy each and every one of my VB purses; however, the On The Go Crossbody is my ALL-TIME FAVORITE. I have 7 purses in this style, and I LOVE each and every one of them! Typically, I carry it as a shoulder bag. However, when I am into serious shopping, I use it as a crossbody leaving my arms/hands free to look at/choose items while my purse is snugly and safely protected close to my body. I use a VB turn-lock wallet (rather large and also my favorite wallet style) and can easily fit that, my hairbrush, medium size cosmetic bag, tissues, hand lotion, small tablet/pen. and VB sunglasses (in the case) in the main, zippered, interior compartment. The little interior flaps of the same zippered compartment hold a small pill case, cough drops, mints. The zippered exterior compartment holds my shopping list and checkbook in its VB fabric/design--wish you still offered these checkbook covers. (HINT!) There are 2 exterior side pockets on the purse. I keep my VB reading glasses (in their soft case) in the one side pocket; I keep my cell phone in the other side pocket. And...I'm good to go! My only decision is: Which On The Go Crossbody of mine will tag along with me that day? I LOVE the beautiful array of colors and designs featured and offered by Vera Bradley.
