Vera Bradley Women's Recycled Lighten Up Reactive Compact Crossbody Purse with RFID Protection

Was looking for a crossbody that would hold my phone and money while out shopping. I have mostly, ended up carrying this exclusively. The fabric is easy to wipe off and it holds more than I originally thought, really cute too.

This purse is designed perfect for my needs. The room for my phone and my car key is unlike any other purse that I have seen.

I have 7 of these little purses- all diff colors to coord with various outfits. They have become my purse of choice- lightweight- even my wallet and phone fit. If you use it as a card carrier, as the inside pockets are intended, you can carry even more. I carry a pen, a lipstick, a small container of stevia, and hang my hand sanitizer on the outside hook for the shoulder strap. I even suspend my car keys from the hook on the other side of the shoulder strap. And, YES, my large iPhone, a 12 ProMax, fits in the outside flap pocket perfectly so anything smaller will do just fine. You will not be disappointed in this little workhorse of a purse. PLUS, it cleans up great- a little soap and a washcloth, that’s it. It’s my happy purse!

This is so cute and the right size for what I wanted.

Overall this is a nicely made wallet/purse that could use some updating. The fabric is sturdy and seems like it will hold up and resist staining (I bought a dark floral print). The zipper and other hardware are plastic but good quality, and the thin crossbody strap is adjustable. I wish the gusset on the wallet portion was a little wider so this section opened a bit more. While there are a good number of slim pockets (one zippered) in the wallet, it could use some more dedicated card slots (and these need some improvement as cards tend to slip out). But my vax card in a plastic protector fits in a side pocket, so that's a win.This was designed to hold your phone in an exterior pocket. My current phone doesn't fit, but there's no tab to keep the phone from slipping out so I wouldn't use it for that any way. (My old phone, a Samsung S8, fits without the case.) I keep bills there.I use the purse portion to hold my phone. It's protected by a flap and my large Samsung Ultra 21+ with thick Otterbox Commuter case fits perfectly. I can fit a pen and a slim lipstick in the purse portion so I don't miss the space.

I gave this as a gift and my friend just loved it. Color combination was absolutely perfect for what it was matched with. She is a very happy recipient.

We live aboard a boat and spend most my time in swim wear or active wear and I needed something to carry my phone when we go ashore to shop or eat etc. This is the perfect size, the material is easy to clean and seems to be great to repeal water if it splash while commuting to shore via dinghy. The Regatta print fits me perfectly. And what a bonus to know it’s made of recycled boats.I love It

Just like it looks. My 3rd purchase with this brand and would buy again.
