I
am constantly on the go. I am either traveling to visit family and friends or I
am off at a blogging event. I like to travel. I think it is fun going places
and seeing people I don’t typically get to see. But no matter where I am going I
always avoid having checked luggage. I also avoid over packing… usually because
I am the one hauling my luggage everywhere.
While
most of the time I travel with my two boys, I have been known to take a mini
mom vacation every once in a blue moon. Packing up the kids can take up a bit
of space, what with diapers and a change of clothes and what not. I on the
other hand, can usually pack pretty efficiently. I am a big fan of carry-on
size luggage and weekender bags and totes.
I
received my Vera Bradley Weekender right before I was supposed to go and visit family for an
extended weekend. It was kismet. I was able to pack my Vera Bradley Weekender
and still have a bit of room to spare. All of the pockets and the solid base
helped to keep my bag upright and organized. There is a lot to like about the
Vera Bradley Weekender.

Mom Mart Approved!
What we love about the Vera Bradley
Weekender:
·
It is the perfect size! It can hold a weekends worth of clothing
and accessories and still have a room to spare for purchases that need to make the
return trip. {18 ½" x 12 ½"
x 8" with 6 ½" strap drop and 48 ½" adjustable, removable strap.}
·
It is easy to carry. With a removable {and adjustable} shoulder
strap available for use you can be hands free when using the Weekender; which
comes in handy for moms with multiple children.
·
The Vera Bradley Weekender is washable {Machine wash cold,
gentle cycle; use only non-chlorine bleach as needed; line dry}! This is
fantastic. No matter how careful I am about keeping my belongings clean and
goop free, something always seems to happen. Either a travel shampoo pops open
or one of my children gets snack everywhere. Stuff happens and I love that I am
able to wash my Vera Bradley Weekender and keep it looking great.
·
There are five inner pockets for keeping items upright
and organized as well as a two back slip pockets and a zippered front
compartment. I find this very helpful when it comes to packing. I like
everything to have a place and I like having certain items easily accessible –
especially when traveling by air.
·
I received the Vera Bradley Weekender in Canyon and I
love it. I love the warm browns and the blue hues and think it is perfect for
Fall/Winter. If the Canyon color is not for you, the Weekender comes in a
variety of other colors as well.
My
mother-in-law introduced me to Vera Bradley bags a while back and I have become
a big fan. What can I say – she has great taste. I like the style of Vera
Bradley and now after having used the Weekender I can say that I like the durability
and functionality of Vera Bradley bags as well. You can tell that thought and
care went into the design. This would definitely make a great gift!
