text: This bag is so versatile! It fits all of my nonsense for work, which usually includes a lunchbox, big cosmetic bag, flip flops, water bottle, and notebook. The pocket in the front is big enough to fit a regular size water bottle. The pattern is also lovely! I worried about the white flowers showing dirt spots but I've been using it since May 2015 and so far they still look bright and clean. Side note - Vera bags wash well though if you turn them inside out and remove any stiff shaping material (i.e. the inner cardboard base of the bag). I wouldn't recommend washing dark colors often, but every few months is fine.
