Review on πŸ‘œ Organize in Style: Vera Bradley Microfiber Hanging Travel Organizer in Classic Navy by Andrea Gleason

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Everything fits, nice choice of fabric and well made - too big for me!

Although I like it, I don't like it. And I love Vera Bradley products. Main problem: It's TOO BIG. I travel all the time and it's only useful on really long trips when I'm carrying a larger piece of luggage than my carry-on or when this bag takes up a significant portion of my luggage space. If you are a person who has a lot of cosmetics and toiletries, this bag is for you. It's overkill for me and encourages me to pack a lot of things I don't need in my luggage. Four stars because the pattern is good, it washes well and if you really need that much space this is an amazing bag - but for most weekly trips (I travel for business and usually go away for 2-6 days) this bag is too big and I'm going back to my usual little Vera bags for makeup and such. They just fit better in the trunk. To give you an idea of what this hanging holdall holds (and I use less than half the space): deodorant, toothpaste, toothbrush, nail clippers and file, travel shampoo and conditioner, tampons, pads, large palette of Clinique eyeshadows , body lotion, hair styling lotion, small brush, cotton swab, vitamin sachet, plastic fork/spoon/knife, tweezers, razor, mascara, several other makeup bottles, Vizine, arnica body cleansing stick, face cream, tonic spray, eyeglass cleaner and a rag - and there's room for twice as much more. So if you're going on a two-week family vacation, cruise, etc. where it would be difficult to get things you didn't pack, or if you have an extensive collection of cosmetics or skin care products, this bag is for you. Or maybe you pack for two - that's also possible. This is a very well made organizer and durable.
