Love these small backpacks! They are the perfect size for what I carry. I do miss the zippered pocket on the back like my gray dog one has, but it does have plenty of room. I have 4 backpacks from VB from over the years and the older ones have held up well, and wash great!

I love Vera partly because they're so lightweight and pretty. This bag is the perfect size for everyday use.

The color is bright, but I bought this thinking it would be like the other Vera Bradley Small Backpacks I've purchased over the years. It's not. Its missing the back slip pocket (which I used for keys) and it's missing the 3 slip pockets (which were perfect for lipstick, pen/paper, ...). I loaded it and then unloaded it and put everything back in my old convertible backpack. Never thought it would be different or I would not have shredded the packing slip and tags so quickly.

I like it, but not as well as your old model. I'd like an outside deep pocket on the opposite side of the zippered one. Also I lost a pair of glasses from the side pocket because it's not deep enough. I'm a big fan of Vera Bradley.

I am very glad that I ordered this small backpack. It holds all the essentials and then some. It has many different pockets and lots of extra space too. I absolutely love the Seafood Boil pattern. It is so bright and colorful. I receive compliments about it everywhere I go. It is a fantastic backpack and I use it as my everyday bag as well.

So pretty I love the print. It's just what I wanted. It's light weight, has all the features I like, like the pockets on each side of the bag and the large front pocket too which makes it easy access for phone, keys, lipstick…

Love the print and colors! I've received many compliments on this bag. It would be nice to have two pockets in the main part with the zipper on the other side. The pockets are wonderful in the small section.

I just love this fabric…..cat lover that I am. I wish more were available as I have friends looking for this pattern as well as Cat's Meow (which I also have!) You turned me into a Vera Bradley backpack person years ago when I saw a lovely quilted one at an airport!
