Customer Reviews Vera Bradley Cotton Small Backpack

It was the size and style that I wanted. I also liked the color and pattern.

Love sloth backpack purse just wish straps were more comfy and stay on shoulder better.

It is very nice.

I took this backpack on a trip to Colorado and it was perfect to fit everything I needed. The side pockets only hold a small water bottle (plastic) comfortably, but the backpack has a generous amount of space inside. I only gave it 4 stars because there's no key lanyard inside and my keys can get lost! Also would love an inside that wasn't dark. But it's comfortable, easily cleaned, looks cute, is very very lightweight, and holds a lot.

Bag is beautiful. I love the fabric and the rich color. However it is much larger than stated dimensions. Being a very small person, I may return it.

Just what I need for work!!

It has the usual wonderful features, but has gotten too big for my daily use. Returned it & bought the smaller version.

Love your products.

Nice backpack for kid's activities, like dance. My only negative is to mention that the side pockets do not stretch to accommodate water bottles, so I'm not sure what they can be used for.

This bag would be perfect in my opinion if the straps were 1 1/2-2 longer.

Very functional tote. It would be better if it was a little larger but not as large as the Vera tote.

Did not meet expectations

The colors were not what I expected. I thought it was more of a bright red but it is actually a deeper rose. It actually will last more into the winter but I was expecting more of a Christmassy look.

It seems a bit smaller than the usual small Vera tote, but perhaps that's just the slouchy fabric. There's no external front pocket slip pocket as per description. There's a side seam zippered pocket...not sure what to do with that. I can see how they couldn't stick to the traditional design of the small vera tote because of the reindeer on the front. Overall, very cute, but less functional compared to their original small Vera tote design because of not having the external slip and zippered pockets.

I wish they would have put more reindeers or snowflakes on the purse of the outside and for some reason the fabric seems to attract lint from everywhere so since there's very little on it it really shows white lint

I've had it for about a month, great quality love the design and color. The only thing I would of liked would be for the size to be a bit longer. Most things fit pretty good just some are a little squished. Overall pretty happy with it.

I love all the pockets inside and out to hold all my little stuff. The material is perfect along with the lining and I chose the solid navy which I love. When buying the purse the description said small bag, well I wish that it was just a few inches smaller all around but keeping the same features. I have purchased from Vera Bradley in the past and will in the future.

Love the size of this bag, only have one wish . Wish it had a side pocket for phone easy access. I usually put phone on one side and keys on the other.

Love the colors and design. Plus made of recycled materials is a win. I would like to see more sizes offered. Variety of different styles offered is less

I love this bag! It's the perfect size for a purse but the convenience of a backpack. My only negative is the the adjustable straps don't stay put. I had to put a safety pin in the straps so the bag wont fall off my shoulders.

A family friend gifted me with this style wallet as a graduating high school senior. 11 years, two degrees and a professional job later it finally gave out. I'm couldn't imagine using anything else and love the new design. The zipper on my new wallet sticks before it pulls all the way open, making it card to get cards in and out on the first try. That's the only reason for the four star rating.

Love the purse! Love the pattern! Love the different pockets inside and out and especially the hidden one on top! It could be a tad larger.

Very useful love the details

The overall bag is super pretty! I don't like the straps. They are slippery and do not hold in their place to adjust. I do like the lining but wish it was also quilted.

Great size backpack for every day use with pockets to organize.
