Vera BradleyWomen's Cotton Small Backpack, Classic Black, One Size

I’ve been looking for a cute backpack to use everyday but didn’t want a mini or a giant back-to-school backpack either. This bag is small, but holds a ton! It fits my journal, small wallet, double eyeglass pouch, pill case, cord organizer, wireless earbuds and keys. I love using the back pocket for my cell phone - easy access when needed, but feels much more safe when against my back. I also use the inner zipper pocket to put my wallet in so it’s even safer when out in public.I absolutely love the colors that are in the Magnifique Floral pattern! Such vibrant colors and the fabric is so soft and rich feeling. Great quality and has wonderful versatility.

This is my 3rd time buying this backpack because I absolutely love this size and style! This was a nice transition from the big and bulky diaper backpack I used to carry! This is still big enough to throw a travel size pack of wipes and a diaper for emergencies, but small and cute enough to look like a regular purse! There are enough pockets to hold everything I need plus snacks and things the kids need! This backpack has traveled with me everywhere over the years! It's made very well and the sparkly black adds a bit of fun!

I bought this to carry my tube feeding pump, formula & various medical supplies. I was pleasantly surprised to find I could also fit my wallet, tissues, mints, pens and a few other things I would normally carry in my purse. I was thrilled that I only have to carry one bag now. It has three inner pockets, one of which zippers closed. It has three outer pockets, one of which zippers closed. My phone fits perfectly into one of the outer pockets for quick access. This bag goes EVERYWHERE with me and it has held up beautifully. One of my infusion bags leaked into the backpack and I feared I was going to have to buy a new one but I put it in a lingerie bag, washed it on delicate setting and let it air dry. It looks as great as the day I bought it. I get many compliments on it.

I was looking for a medium backpack that could carry my water bottler and a few other stuff. I didn't want a big one. This one is very cute, well made and has great storage. It's also lightweight and I can wash it in the washing machine if needed. I would recommend !

I absolutely love this backpack! I have been using it ever since I purchased it. The backpack is comfy to wear and a perfect size. I wanted something that was a little bigger than a mini backpack but not so big it was like I was going to school. This size was exactly what I was looking for. I love how the inside is a design but the outside is a solid color that matches anything I wear with it. It has a small pocket on the back where you can put stuff. The small zipper compartment on the front is convenient and holds a good amount of stuff and has pen holders and a small pocket within it. On the inside there is one big zipper pocket that holds a ton of stuff and it doesn’t spill out. My only complaint is on the inside there are also two smaller pockets that would be great if the snapped or zipped closed. I hold chapstick, travel sized perfume and some other small things in these pockets that aren’t big but since the pockets don’t zip or snap closed everything is constantly falling out of them especially if I reach in and grab something from the bottom of the bag like my keys or wallet usually everything falls out of those pockets as I bring the items up. Other than those two small pockets this backpack is perfect and if I am ever in need of a new backpack I would 100% reorder despite the pocket issue I face.

Experience with this print on 2 different backpacks:I ordered the Enchantment print fully expecting to have oddly placed horses, because that’s pretty much my luck with prints, and I was fine with that.Unfortunately, this bag only had a head and bottom on the straps, no horses anywhere else. I feel like the contrast between the horse and the rest of the print makes it so that animal is really the drawing point of the print, so to not have it anywhere on the actual backpack was severely disappointing.I’m leaving this review after receiving a replacement that’s even worse than the first (save for the fact it has foxes on the front, while the other didn’t even have those on the front). There are no horses on the bag at all. None lol.So, do yourself a favor if you’re considering this print for this specific backpack and don’t buy it unless you love everything except the horses. Idk if the website is getting all the flops or if the print on the backpacks is just awful, but I’m so disappointed. The full print looked so pretty. I ordered the organizer too, so I’ll update here if that’s also missing the horses.Backpack itself:The backpack feels very sturdy and high quality. I normally avoid bags with fabric interior this thin because they tend to fall apart quickly, but this feels quite sturdy.I have other VB bags, but this is my first backpack. It has a good sized but shallower open pocket that faces your back when worn. Inside, it has a large zip pocket and 2 medium-ish open pockets (I can almost fit my whole hand in them and I have fairly big hands for a woman, so, they’re nice lol).On the front, there is a zip pouch and inside there are 2 open pen pouches and 1 open pouch, a little shallower and wider than the ones inside.There are two exterior side pouches that can fit a regular sized (16oz) water bottle. Can probably fit one of the thin, 16oz(?) hydroflasks.The padded straps are very comfortable and adjustable, and the bag itself is quite roomy. In case it needs to be said, it will not fit a small laptop (13”) but may just fit a bigger kindle or tablet.Overall, I’d buy this in the future in a different print, but for now I vastly prefer my featherweight backpack. It’s slightly lighter weight and a little more comfortable, and holds a bigger water bottle.

I really like this small back pack. It holds all the things I would normally carry in a purse plus other items like a lap top, book, snacks or anything I might need while out. I use a walker and this drapes over the handle of my walker making it easier and safer to carry my personal items. This brand is well made and I've found it to be very durable. I like that I was able to purchase a print that reflects me.
