For Those Who Want A Light Weight Medium Bag

Today's TSV is Vera Bradley, and includes three prints and three solid color microfiber bags.

I already have two of VB's micro bags in black, they're great and so light. I just ordered the new red for the holidays, even though I usually like a larger bag. Gorgeous colors!

This also comes in blue and black:

That is a great holiday bag, Noel. I love the color and the quilting.

Do the straps stay on your shoulder well? Sometimes the two strap bags don't for me.

Hi Mstryion Smile

I'm the wrong person to ask, lol. I almost always have trouble keeping a strap or straps on my shoulder, which is weird since my shoulders don't look sloping. My daughter also has the same trouble with straps and for sure she doesn't have sloping shoulders. I have the same trouble with bra straps, especially if the bra isn't brand new.

There's a lot of joint pain with Lupus, including shoulder pain, and when that happens, I definitely don't want to be carrying a heavy weight leather bag, which is why I also keep a selection of light bags.

Thanks, Noel.

I don't have sloping shoulders either, but for some reason the two straps never stay up. I don't have any trouble with one strap. Maybe it's a balance thing. I always have a lot of stuff in my bag!

I thought about this one. I definitely don't like the prints but the microfiber solids are nice. Do they clean easily?

Would love this bag with a detachable shoulder strap. This is a fabulous looking bag, though. Love the solid colors!

That might be it! I carry a lot, too.

I have a VB black microfiber tote that is at least 4 years old. It still looks new. I usually use a sponge on it but I have washed it by hand once or twice.

Thanks lulu. I need another bag like I need a hole in the head but this one is really nice.
