Customer Reviews Vera Bradley Cotton Utility Bucket Crossbody Purse

First, the bag is great. Well padded. The crossbody function is a little short - it isn't quite long enough, for me anyway. Also, the new design of the strap has flimsy plastic clips/catches; seems a bit odd for a VB product. And trying to take the strap out of the holder (to lengthen the crossbody strap) on one of the sides is VERY hard...but just on one side. Love the purse, love the color, but can't really wear it crossbody. At least for me.

I really like the weight and layout of bag. Only downside is that it is a magnet for dog hair. Cotton fabric catches everything.

it's a nice spring purse

It is bigger than I had hoped for and I'm not a fan of the recycled cotton. I had hoped to see this pattern in lighten up/reactive but was disappointed that never happened. Also the light peach does not do the vibrant colors in this pattern justice.

This bag holds quite a lot and the compartments are great. I wish it looked more like a Vera Bradley bag though. While I wanted a red bag for the holidays, I'm a bit surprised with the nondescript material.

Love this bag! The fabric is beautiful but attracts pet hair. Otherwise it's a 5 star bag!

How much bigger than I expected but it's a keeper

Love the bag, the only thing I am not a fan of with the black color is that hair and other fibers stick to it easily and they do not remove very well. If I could go back I would still choose the same bag but a different color or pattern. Love the bag in all though, great product!

It is bulkier than I expected.

I love the purse and the new material. Have it in the cranberry and collects lint like crazy which makes it look dirty. Otherwise I love it. Any suggestions how to get rid of the lint

The utility crossbody bag is a very nice bag with a lot of organization. Pretty color. The inside material was not the same color as pictured.The color of the Inside material pictured was prettier.

Don't like the plastic buckle on the strap. Like every thing else

Very satisfied over all. Strap is a little hard to adjust. Love the feel of the recycled cotton. Very happy with this purchase

I like the crossbody but it's a little too big for what I'm looking for. I also was not fond of the two interior slip pockets being on the same side as the interior zip pocket. It'd be nice if there was a nice in between this one and the Utility Small Crossbody.

I like the set up of the purse, the only thing I would change is a thicker strap or possibly wider would be better.

I've never purchased a bag with the recycled Utility Cotton. It's bulkier than I expected. I like the signature Vera Bradley pockets and compartments, so I kept it, rather than return it. I would like this bag better if it was lighter weight and less puffy.

I love my bag. This is bigger than I thought it would be but man it will be great for long distance trips and getting on planes. I recommend for anyone who travels and wants a purse they can add more items too.

I don't like the cotton.....I got the solid black and it shows all lint and hair. Great bag otherwise.

loved the zippered pockets on this crossbody. Small fabric loop good for attaching sanitizer, decorative hangs. Wish it was bigger- like large on the go crossbody

I love how light the cotton is. The color is really vibrate and pretty. The puffiness of the bag took a little while i get used too. I wasnt a huge fan if how puffy the bag was at first but it grew on me.

This bag is a beautiful color Desert Pink and soft in the recycled cotton! I love all the pouches and pocket zippers. I do wish the main compartment was a bit wider for my take along items. I was worried about the solid color but out worked out great. No stains in everyday use! I love the little loop where I hand my keys from! No digging for them!

This bag owns up to its name for utility. There are so many places to carry stuff. The size is good...not too big or too small. I think its use however is best served when traveling, hiking or walking when you need to bring along several items and need places to carry and secure them. As an everyday bag though I think the number of carrying spaces is too many for me so not a daily crossbody bag as I prefer smaller bags and don't like to carry around lots of items.

The purse itself it so soft and comfy when using as a crossbody, almost feels like a pillow! I usually like crossbody styles for shopping or travel and this purse is so combiner to be organized and not have one major compartment foe all your things. I do prefer side zip pockets on each end of the purse but there are multiple zip closures you can use for phone or keys.

I'm really enjoying the solid cotton fabric, its soft and yet feels durable. A great option for those ladies who like the lightweight of cotton but aren't into the typical patterns. This style bag holds a lot of my day to day items but also makes it great for a long day out on town or on a trip! Lots of pockets and zippers to securely store your personal items. My only wish that the back side of the purse had a bigger pocket instead of just the cell phone pocket. Overall this is a great crossbody option!

I received and used the Utility Crossbody bag. I appreciated the design of the bag and numerous pockets and zip closures. I wish the bag was quilted to make it just a bit thinner to carry. Overall very nice, usable bag.
