Cotton Weekender Travel Bag

This is really pretty and sturdy. Really love this. It’s easy to carry and has room for everything.

The fabric: This is the recycled cotton line. I have an older Vera Bradley backpack that is signature cotton. As far as actually feeling the cotton and feeling the thickness and texture, the recycled cotton is exactly the same as the other Vera Bradley cottons. This material is recycled and thats about sourcing, but the actual fabric seems the same as Vera Bradley signature cotton. I got the Butterfly By print. The prints are quilted, like traditional Vera Bradley. The solid colors are not quilted, so just be aware that if you get a solid color in recycled cotton, then it will not be quilted.

This is a great overnight bag with plenty of pockets for organizing. Its held up well over many uses and can be used for various occasions. VB is a reputable brand and makes a sturdy product, although it is cotton and does get dirty if youre not careful with it. I like that it has matching accessories that you can pair with it.

Ive had several different Vera Bradley totes and bags over the years, but this is my first time with the Weekender Travel Bag. This is a great bag. I truly feel that it could accommodate almost everything I would need for a weekend. Im not sure I would be able to get all of my toiletries and my hair dryer brush in it, but I could probably get some of it. It could definitely hold all of my clothes and a pair of shoes without a doubt. The bag is not only beautiful, but its durable too. I love the recycled cotton. The rainforest canopy print is cheery and summery. The large main compartment has mesh pockets on the sides. There are sturdy handles as well as an adjustable shoulder strap. There are some outer zippered pockets, too. All zippers glide easily. There are ribbon tabs on them which make it easy to grasp. The bottom has firm plastic piece that can be removed that gives support to the bag. Overall, its a lovely bag and will be perfect for traveling!

First things first, this bag is HUGE. It is marketed as a travel bag and it absolutely functions as a substitute for luggage. this bag absolutely packs a punch has a soft carry-on that can hold anything you might want to bring along. You could easily use this bag for a long weekend away and still have room to spare. There is a slip pocket on the side for a water bottle or items you need to access quickly, and two very large zippered pockets on the exterior. The interior is packed full of mesh Pockets so that you can see what youve packed but still keep it organized.

This bag is so spacious and the colors are beautiful. Perfect gift for my mom who’s constantly traveling on the weekends. There at elite of pockets to keep everything nice and organized which is my favorite feature.

I love Vera Bradleys duffle bags. This one is excellent-- nice and roomy-- some good-sized pockets, and the zipper is smooth. The other bags I have of hers are solid and non-quilted. But, when I saw this, I thought-- okay, maybe its time to get a quilted Vera Bradley bag! I do like it. I like that its not a purse, and I do like the fabric, though its very beachy looking-- the colors are kind of tropical, so I can see taking this to the beach or using it like that.

First time I took it on a trip, the grommet came off the end!

I like the pattern, the quality is good. It’s a good size. I would not want to take it for traveling on a plane or anywhere I’d have to put it on the floor. The bottom is cloth and could get worn, wet or dirty. Wish there was a little reinforcer on the bottom for this reason. Otherwise it’s nice.

I used this recently to take a short road trip, and it was perfect for what I needed. I pack using packing cubes, so those fit just fine, along with my toiletry travel bags, with some room to spare. I dont think Id use this for anything longer than a weekend depending on the time of year, you could probably get away with a couple more days with lighter clothing, but I had work slacks and such with me, along with regular clothes. It would work as a carry on, I compared it to my other carry on bags, and it is either the same size or smaller than those, so I would take this on my next air trip if it were a short one, or to use as a carry on.
