I recently purchased this bag as a birthday gift.  I assumed the bag would be plain and contained only one large pocket. Much to both of our surprise, the bag is very roomy, sturday and contains a couple of smaller inner pockets for cell phone, make-up, etc.
The bag has neatly sewn topstitching which lends a quality appearance and seems to be quite sturdy.
Also, the inside of the bag is decorative in addition to the outside. We were both very pleased with the bag and feel it is well worth the money we paid, especially after comparing to some comparable Vera Bradley bags.
Would definitely recommend.
