I bought this mainly for an upcoming trip (wanted something lightweight that can hold my passport, boarding pass and other essential items and that I can access easily at the airport) and for future use when I run errands and don't need a larger purse/bag.I like that this bag is very compact yet has several pockets (including one "hidden" one that I didn't find right away). I'd debated whether I needed this hipster when I already have 3 small VB purses but the difference is that I can actually organize my items with the hipster whereas the purses are more like "trash bags" for my stuff.This bag has 4 pockets (including several slots for credit and other cards in one of them) and can hold my iPhone 12 in one pocket, VB wallet in another, and I can stash in any of the 4 pockets other small essentials like keys, a pen, glasses/sunglasses, lip balm, some gum, and a small pill box and small hand sanitizer. The overall shape of the bag is flat, so it works for smaller/flatter items but won't hold anything bulkier. Ideally I'd love for this bag to widen just a tad more (that is, be less flat) for a less snug fit for all my things and that's the only reason I knocked one star off.Otherwise it's a great bag for those outings where you only need your most essential items. The strap is adjustable, the material looks durable, and the colors are vibrant (I got the red one with flowers). I have purchased directly from VB before and this hipster that I ordered via Amazon looks to be authentic. It arrived brand new and packaged like the bags I have purchased directly from VB.When I received the purse, I was surprised at how lightweight and soft the material was to the touch. The purse has pockets, pockets, pockets. But when you put items in, they don’t misshapen the purse. I do deliveries and wanted something to wear crossbody that I never had to take off when putting on my seatbelt etc. The purse just becomes part of me. Never in the way- easily slide my phone and keys inside to keep my hand free as I exit my car over and over. Love. Would purchase again.Perfect size for an extra “pocket”. Holds phone, ID, credit cards, comb & more. I like the versatility but was disappointed with the strap. Previous purchase of this size purse had a cloth strap of the same material that was comfortable on my shoulder. This one was a nylon-like strap that rubs & cuts into my neck. Even so, the safety feature of RFD protection would entice me to buy again.I bought this in May to use in Florida. It worked out so well for travel that I continued to use it all summer. One of the issues I have is that the Summer pattern clashes with most of my fall wardrobe, so I ordered a solid black one!Lightweight and holds a ton of things! I love that it’s small enough for me to wear while I’m driving with my seatbelt on.I love this because it has slots for all my cards and I don't need to use a wallet, also room for my phoneI’m planning a trip to Disney and I needed a small light weight bag to carry the essentials. This one is very attractive and and it appears to be a genuine Vera Bradley. The bag has a good sized compartment for your phone, a larger center compartment for chapstick, tissues, hand sanitizer, etc. The one disappointment is the section for your credit cards and license. It barely opens up at all and will probably be inconvenient. It would have been perfect if that compartment had a zipper and opened like a book. I decided to keep it anyway. The fabric is pretty and Vera is always well made.Very cute, lightweight, holds all my stuff and my 12 pro max!!! Love it!!!I love the size, weight and the fact it can be washed if soiled.Farben sind sehr schön und sommerlich. Die Größe ist auch perfekt. Fachaufteilung ist sehr gut. Leider kann man nicht erkennen wo RFID wirksam ist, denke mal nur bei den Kartenfächer. Daher 1 Stern Abzug. Trotzdem würde ich in anderen Farben sofort wieder zuschlagen, Preis ist auch angemessen.Beautiful pattern, holds a lot of items , very lite weight. Very well made .Love this Bag ! The colors are Beautiful. It holds alot & has lots of pockets. Perfect for those with mobility issues as it is very light weight . The quality is Excellent!Has a pockets 4 my large cell phone and other pockets 4 essentials needed for a quick trip without everything from my regular purse.Perfect size for quick running errands.. U hardly notice that we carry.. Rfid protection built-in wallet is excellent.. I just toss my keys, phone, sunglasses n lipbalm.. Perfect size.. Still have more room.. I m a huge VB fan..
