Q: Is this back pack water resistant and/or water proof?

Q: Is this like the average backpack size? I can’t tell from being online?
submitted by Maddie - 3 months ago
A: Great question! the Outlet Lighten Up Essential Large Backpack measures 12.5 inches (W) x 17 inches (H) x 8.25 inches (D), and is perfect for school, work, and even travel!

Q: Does this have a flap on the back where you can slip it onto a suitcase for easier carrying?
submitted by Sherry - 4 months ago
A: This particular version of the Outlet Lighten Up Essential Large Backpack does not have that feature, but we have another version that does! That particular feature is called a trolley sleeve, so look for that mentioned in the description. The other version has the same name and look, with the addition of the trolley sleeve, so it has a separate product listing. We hope you love it!

College, here she comes!
My granddaughter begins college soon and the large Sketched Medallion backpack will allow her to leave high school fashion behind plus carry so much more than she was able to for years. It's pretty, perfect & practical.

Love Vera Bradley backpacks
It's beautiful and has all the pockets I could want. It's well made and I am a Vera Bradley fan anyway, as my last backpack was a different Vera Bradley. Quality lasts and it was hard to retire my last one. It just kept on going :-) I just loved this purple and pattern and finally decided to get a new one. But the old one was still just fine except for some fabric tearing from the shoulder strap I use all the time. Other than that the zippers and pockets were perfect on that one too!
