Question 1

Is the Vera Bradley Essential big enough for a phone and wallet?

Accepted Answer

Yes. A phone, cardholder or small wallet, and keys fit, with the interior zip pocket for coins. It will not hold a tablet or a full-size water bottle.

Question 2

How long is the strap?

Accepted Answer

The strap adjusts to a 52-inch maximum length, with a 10.25-inch drop at its longest. That wears as a crossbody for most adults and as a shoulder bag when shortened.

Question 3

Is this the same as the regular Vera Bradley crossbody?

Accepted Answer

No. This is an outlet-exclusive style, so it is sold through the Vera Bradley outlet rather than the full-price line. Patterns and stock can differ from regular stores.

Question 4

What is it made of?

Accepted Answer

Vera Bradley's outlet crossbodies are typically quilted cotton with a fabric lining. Check the product label for the exact material of this pattern.

Question 5

How does it compare with the Vera Bradley Triple Zip?

Accepted Answer

The Triple Zip has three zip compartments and a longer strap; the Essential is lighter at 0.5 lb and keeps a single zip-top opening with slip and zip pockets inside and out. Choose the Essential for a lighter, simpler carry and the Triple Zip for more separate compartments.
