I want a bag when call me coral finally arrives. I use the Vera everyday for work. It holds my lunchbox and I love all of the pockets. Is there another bag pretty comparable in size that you love? Pleated tote? Messenger? Carried away? I def. have to be able to have a pretty similar height as the Vera and I do love all of the pockets. Would rather have a bag larger than the Vera as opposed to downsizing. Just haven't carried the pleated tote or carried away (or are there other options?); not interested in a Miller....I have one already! Thanks, girls!

I have a Pleated Tote and Vera, and I must say - I prefer my Vera. It's more roomy, the shape isn't as awkward for me, I like how it holds weight, and I like the padded straps so much more. The outer pocket actually works on the Vera too. On the Pleated Tote I feel like I have to squeeze items in there since the inside may be filled. I would just get another Vera - if you love a bag, why change? I own four Morgans. Love 'em.

I don't know how much you carry to work but that Get Carried Away Tote is HUGE!!! I am planning to use that as a travel/overnight bag. It looks like it can hold a TON of stuff.
But I agree, if you like the Vera, go ahead and get another one. I'm thinking of getting another one so I can have a fall/winter (Pirouette) and a Spring/Summer for my school/work bag.

I definately love my Vera for a work bag! I can stuff it so full of things that I need to take to work everyday. I know it is a retired style but I tried the Super Tote and it was so huge that I hated it. I say go for the Vera! Such a versatile bag and any pattern looks great on it because it is so big.

I advocate the pleated tote as well. I use it for school and it's wonderful.

My vote goes for the pleated tote as well. I love how big and roomy it is!

I use a pleated tote to carry my lecture materials and papers that I need to mark. I like all of the pockets and the end pockets are great for my water bottle and office keys.

Ash, you have a Miller bag??? No way!!! LOL I carry a PT as my "everyday" bag, and before that, used to carry a Vera Tote. I think I'm going to get a Vera Tote in CMC myself; as much as I LOVE my PTs, I do think the Vera holds more and is easier to organize based on it's shape. JMHO!

As a fan of the Vera and the Pleated tote I would have to say, stick with the Vera bag. As much as I love the PT, I find it cumbersome to carry. I always have work folders and catalogs and it drives me crazy that they always slump down in the bag. The Vera is so much more structured and the pockets can't be beat. If you love the Vera, then Stay with the Vera. I just got it in Night & Day and Simply Violet. Love it.
