This is the second Vitalo Vera bag I have bought and, unfortunately, I have had to return both of them

Unlike the "Ziggy" bag which had poor metal hardware and some construction issues, the "Gabriela" is a great improvement in both departments. The zipper pulls and hardware were much more hardy and heavier. The bag's material appeared very nice and the lining felt nice as well. Another thing is that the pictures of the "Burgundy" color are misleading: the bag itself looks more like the actual color and not as brown. The decor of the bag is pretty and overall rather sturdy.

What kept me from keeping this bag is the same issue as with the "Ziggy": the interior smelled bad. I don't know what it is about the Vitalo Vera bags but they just smell awful inside.
