Vera Bradley Hadley Satchel Lotus Review

The bag is very cute and perfect with lots of organization. However, it smelled very strongly of perfume, incense or the like. I had to leave it outside for a few days. The smell is still there but not as strong.

This is not as well made as all my old Vera Bradley bags! I was a little shocked about that! Buckle less! weak lining. Just not what I expected from Vera Bradley! I won't do it again unless I see it in person!

I love this bag! The color/pattern is beautiful (snow lotus). Four exterior phone/water bottle/key pockets. Lightweight bag holds a lot of things. The shoulder strap is nice and wide and won't cut you. The price was reasonable. Would recommend to others.

The zippers are very strong and will not come loose. Space to place small, medium and large items. Thanks to the fabric surface, you can press and feel on the sides to find out which compartment your item is in. The shoulder strap is adjustable from short to long wherever you want to hang it!

I bought it to use as flight luggage. Perfect size, organizer pockets, light weight. Liked the pattern and material. My only problem was the so-called handles. They were so small they were useless. However, there was a knotted material at each end that could be used to increase the size. I'm going to the seamstress tomorrow.

I love this handbag. I've had it for over half a year now and decided to buy another one in the same color. I want a new one waiting in the wings if my first one ever wears out. Perfect size - crossbody when I need it - my iPad fits perfectly - and my phone fits perfectly in the side pockets. I also like the 2 outside zippered pockets. This wallet has everything an organizer should have AND it's BEAUTIFUL!
