Vera Bradley x Wicked Mini Backpack + Zip Case Wallet

[@melissaandrews1603]

Hey! Good to see you, again! Honestly, I haven’t even looked at VB in a while. I miss the classic cotton colorful VB. That bag reminds me of a lug bag.

Good to see you Peach! I love the color on that bag and the pattern. I really hope that Vera Bradley doesn't abandon the styles that made them all in the name of for fad and trends.

[@potatopeach111]

@@rosewithhope thanks! Unfortunately, they’ve already abandoned a lot of their beloved styles and features that made them “Vera.” Luckily, this mini backpack is still tried and true. And the zip card case is a nice addition. But I do miss all of their original items.

@ SMH, they will hopefully return if enough customers review and complain about it. Fingers crossed. lol

I love love love the pink print. I hate that it’s not on sale but I ordered the big backpack anyway 😲😲😲

[@juliejarmus6117]

That is a gorgeous pattern. I just received my first order from the new VB last week and loved all 4 items. Love seeing you post!

Love your outfit!! Would you please share where you bought your outfit from, please?

[@cherrymaniego209]

Yeah please do a video about what you said 😊😊

So glad to see you. I missed your detailed bag videos. Will you be doing any videos of Kipling bags? I recently bought the quilted bina and the small satin elysia both in black. Loving the pink. I have a VB zip ID and I really like that I can get my cards in and out without a struggle and there's still space if I wanted to add change or cash. I'd love if they would make a pastel/bubblegum pink version 😍😍. Hope to see more bag videos!!

@@hotmama2879 nice! I would love to add more Kipling videos to my channel someday :)

My issue with the rebrand is how short and flimsy the arm straps are.

[@potatopeach111]

@@Aeva agreed. I cut out several minutes from this video of me complaining about those straps

[@Aeva]

@@potatopeach111 they had a great sale at the outlet for some totes. Couldn’t even put them over my arm. Don’t know who made this decision.

[@potatopeach111]

@ in my opinion, I think a lot of the decisions that came out of the rebrand came from a place of cheapening the bags and claiming it’s a “modern approach” on their part: flimsy straps, lack of hardware, no closures on the bags, etc. Very disappointing…

[@Aeva]

@ the Vera Bradley x urban outfitters purses were so flimsy I sent them back. Looked like gift with purchase cosmetic bags.

[@potatopeach111]

@ yikes.

How much did u pay for this bag

[@305Alligator]

The rebrand has totally taken away the excitement I used to have for VB. The patterns are nice but the purses are not functional and I miss all of the pockets, slip pockets, hidden pockets and zipper closures. Don't get me started on the torture straps either‼️ ugh...I used to buy so many items, now I'm on the Internet buying the old patterns in the old purse styles that I love, but I miss the excitement of new patterns and functional designs that had lots and lots of pockets‼️

[@potatopeach111]

Totally agree! It’s a disappointing transformation overall for me, too. But great for the wallet, if you think of it that way!

[@Azstaria]

Is this mini backpack smaller than the small convertible backpack?

[@potatopeach111]

@@Azstaria it is considerably smaller, yes!

[@MyDreamIsAStory]

This is a pretty pattern. But I feel so overwhelmed with the Wicked collabs from various brands. For me it’s too much at once.

[@potatopeach111]

@@MyDreamIsAStory there were quite a few collabs indeed!

[@TanyaAD138]

I've been watching the VB stock now and then and every time i look it's in the red so i dont think anyone is really buying the ugly new VB

[@dreemsycle2]

I don’t like the rebrand at all. I miss the old VB.
