Our take on the Vera Bradley Women's Marcelle Shoulder Bag

The Marcelle is a large, soft-sided shoulder bag in Vera Bradley's signature quilted cotton, with a zip top, an adjustable strap and a roomy interior with zip and slip pockets. At 16 inches wide and 10 tall, it holds a tablet, a water bottle and a full wallet with room to spare, which puts it closer to a tote than to a compact purse. The cotton build is light and washable but offers no structure, so it slouches when partly empty. Shoppers who like bold floral prints and an open, easy-to-dig bag tend to love it; those who want a stiff, polished bag or a secure crossbody carry may not.

Questions and answers

Is the Marcelle big enough for a tablet?
Yes. The 16 x 10 inch body fits most 10 to 11 inch tablets along with a wallet, phone and water bottle.
Does it have a crossbody strap?
No. It comes with one adjustable shoulder strap; the shortest drop is about 5.5 inches, so it sits on the shoulder rather than across the body.
Is the cotton bag washable?
Vera Bradley cotton is generally spot-clean only. Machine washing can fade the print and soften the shape further.
How does it compare with the Vera Bradley tote?
The Marcelle is shorter and wider than a standard tote, with a zip top and more interior pockets, but it carries less vertically.
Does it hold its shape when empty?
No. The quilted cotton is unstructured, so the bag slumps unless it is fairly full.
What pockets are inside?
There is one zip pocket and one slip pocket inside, plus the main zip compartment.
