Cotton Mini Backpack Purse, Black

My wife was looking for a lightweight, small, backpack style bag to carry during her day to day and this is great. It's simple, stylish, and soft but hold up really well to day to day use. She's able to carry her phone, wallet, keys, and a few other small things and really likes it.

Great little mini backpack for popping in keys phone small essentials for running errands hands-free. My only negative is the fabric attracts everything.

I ordered the Morning Glory, which is pastel blue and has a blue flower pattern inside and I love the combination of color. The bag itself is the smallest backpack from Vera Bradley that I own. It is a great color and design for spring and summer dress. And one thing I really like is the cushioned straps; when I am carrying it for a long time, it's much more comfortable than other, similar backpacks I have.I usually bring it for a walking trail or to pick up my kids from school or the bus stop. It is useful when I just need to bring small essential stuff and need my both hands. There's a pocket for my cell phone and I can use it to carry my keys and wallet. I wish it had a water bottle pocket inside or outside, which would be even more perfect for my needs. I have another, similar Vera Bradley backpack that includes a side-pocket for a water bottle and that is super convenient!

I picked this up for my 15-year-old daughter and it is now her favorite bag. The color is as true. A teal as you can come by. It is extremely well stitched with no real signs that it will suffer from wear anytime soon. Definitely a worthwhile purchase.

Very cute and love the Paradise Coral color scheme. I have lots of Vera bags and backpacks and wanted something smaller than the small cotton backpack.Surprisingly, this tiny bag fits A LOT. My iPhone 15 Pro Max in a Case Mate case, with a silicone loop on the back, fits perfectly in the back slip pocket, AND in the front zip pocket, albeit a bit snugly in the front pocket. Inside, my turnlock wallet, sunglasses in case, keys, assorted pens and lip balms all fit with room to spare.My only hesitation is that as an *ahem* mature women, I feel slightly ridiculous with a tiny bag that looks like it belongs to a pre-schooler. If I can get over that, I think it will be perfect for days when I want a lighter weight backpack to save my neck and back.

The listing has measurements but IDK I just expected this to be bigger. It’s not just a mini backpack, it’s a mini MINI backpack. Good for holding your phone, keys, and a small wallet. Not much else. If you take this to a show and buy merch it won’t fit in here. Otherwise I’m super happy!! The stitching is nice, fabric is thick, zippers are high quality. This is an amazing backpack just please understand it’s like a clutch you can strap to your back. You’ll struggle to squeeze a water bottle in it.

I had been hearing my wife complain of shoulder pain intermittently for months before she hypothesized it could be her shoulder bag causing the issue. I ordered this backpack purse in hopes it could help take the strain off of her shoulder thinking the backpack would spread the weight across her back rather than having it all on one shoulder. Thankfully the backpack seems to be the "silver-bullet cure" here as she had zero pain on our last excursion out and about. She loves this backpack purse and has moved all her stuff from her old purse to it!The backpack purse is not only comfortable, roomy for its size, and functional but attractive as well. I ordered the coral version of this Vera Bradley purse as she likes anything pinkish generally and this hit the spot to include the offsetting leaves and flowers of the material's pattern. There are two zippered compartments with the larger compartment having an inner zipper compartment inside of it. The compartments are all fairly roomy and easily accommodated the normal purse essentials she carries. The zippers are of a good quality and work well. The backpack straps are firmly attached, about an inch and a half wide, and easily adjusted by metal adjustment buckles. There is even a loop at the top of the backpack for hanging it up if so desired.All in all, this is a quality made backpack purse that is small enough to be unobtrusive (unlike a full sized backpack) but large enough to actually be usable while maintaining a look of elegance and style. My wife loves it look and comfort while I love she has an attractive solution to her shoulder pain problem.

Really cute, but I underestimated how small.
