text: I've been eyeing this bag for quite awhile. I LOVE the color and is the perfect size, even larger than I thought it was going to be. The bag arrived quickly and just as pictured. BUT....at first I thought I had been sent the wrong bag because I couldn't figure out how to adjust the stap to make it cross body. Also like another reviewer had said the strap is pretty stiff. My biggest problem though was that it has this horrible smell (almost a rubber-y smell, like tires!), I don't know where it could have come from. The bag is a legitimate  Vera Bradley (has tags attached) so it must be from how the shipper stored it or something along those lines as I've never had a Vera Bradley that smelled like this!! I'm hoping the smell goes away with with some nice smelling spray and fresh air.
