Customer Reviews Vera Bradley Cotton Small Backpack

This is a very nice bag. I think it'll be great for a carry-on to bring some things for long overseas flight. I only gave it 4 stars because I was trying to buy the exact bag I already have but in black. This one is bigger. I think the photos are not the best on the website. It's still a very nice bag and I'll use it.

I was impressed with the bag when I saw it online and ordered it. It is a nice tote bag but I don't feel that it has the pizzazz as other Vera Bradley products I have owned. It goes floppy and has no shape. As with all tote bags with two straps, I have to put pieces of Velcro on them. Without Velcro on the straps, one strap is always falling off my shoulders. Unless I actually can see a Vera Bradley, I don't plan to order anymore online. I like a solid colored purse or tote bag. The cotton reIMAGINED is an excellent idea just not the typical Vera Bradley products I'm used to having.

I thought it was going to be smaller. According to the description it was much smaller and could be used as a handbag. It's more suitable for use as a carryon bag or for over night trips.

A little to small

This is my second tote bag. Perfect size and very durable.

It's larger than I expected but I really like all the inner pockets.

The small Vera tote is my favorite bag. Although there are many small pockets I wish there was one divider across the main part of bag

This is a great backpack.

Yes, I do like my small backpack, but I preferred the one you made several years ago. It was about the same size, but had 3 zip compartments and a few hidden pouched inside. Also the side pockets zipped so that I felt secure putting my keys or other things in them. Now with just small elastic topped side pouches they are not good for keeping anything important. I DO LOVE the small backpack purse tho and surely hope you keep making them. The campus backpack is just too big for a everyday purse. The fabric on this one is lovely, and I continue to like the quilting. Thnak you!

Love it, however the pockets on the inside could be wider. Love the size ,color and length of shoulder straps. I feel as though I got a good bargain as the item was on Sale and I was able to use a birthday discount . The original price however would be out of my budget.

Matches the pretty purse I bought. Has enough room for credit cards and change!

No side pockets for one no place for phone for easy sccesd

Smaller than what I thought it would be

Super cute pattern but I think the quality of the bags is falling off a bit. When I compare it to one of my older small Vera's the straps are thinner and the quilting just doesn't seem the same. I paid full price for the pattern but wish I had waited to see if I could have got it on sale.

It's a beautiful bag but just much larger than I thought I had ordered

Very sweet heart bag. I would have liked a large print, but I gave it as a gift and she was thrilled.

Larger than expected

Colors are very vivid, good sturdy bag

It's cute, wish it was Sherpa though.

Cute, I like the color.. did not notice the animal In the print until I got it out of the package.

Love this bag but I wish it was a little bit larger.

Like it

Beautiful pattern and color. Unfortunately I didn't need another over-sized tote bag!!! Didn't realize that it wasn't designed to be carried as an everyday handbag. In recent years VB has been offering less choices in hand-bag sized products. For me the perfect size was 16 x 12 but rarely is that size offered anymore.

It's huge & pricey. Listed as 11 inch width & way more than that. I could easily put more in it than I could carry. it is so pretty & monogram is truly lovely- have it hanging up as a decoration in my computer room. Like going to outlet but don't plan on ordering again without seeing it.

I love the bag! I love all of the features, the size, the color, and that it's made out of recycled cotton. The cotton is rather thin however, and I am concerned that at some point I'll get a stain on it and that will be the end of it. One suggestion is to put a magnetic snap right above the zipper for people like me who don't always take the time to zip a bag shut. Higher inside pockets would prevent contents from spilling out.
