Vera Bradley purse users, should I get the mini hipster or the regular?

[Chelmarie53]

I'm really torn between getting the mini sized hipster and the regular sized one.

I'm hoping somebody on here can point me in the right direction as to which one to pick. :)

I plan on carrying in whichever one I get: room key/park tickets (depending on the size of the purse, probably just in a wallet although the mini has slots for cards), a digital camera, a cell phone, and some makeup.

Which would be better to fit these things? If you have a Vera Bradley bag, which do you use?

I've never used the mini, but I do use the regular hipster every trip. Honestly, I can't imagine using one smaller than that. I think it's about the perfect size to fit everything in! Hope this helps :goodvibes

I use the Mini
Heres what I put in mine. Glass case, Room key and other cards and cash, Small bottle w/ Tylenol, tums, lip balm, little packets of gator aid or crystal light to add to the water bottles, hair clip and a small camera or cell phone DH usually carries the camera. With that said. I don't have any small children. If I did I would go for the regular size.

Thanks for the advice, guys! :goodvibes

I'm thinking the mini would work best for me on my trip since it's so compact, but then I'd use the regular sized one more on a daily basis AFTER my trip.

I'm not totally sure yet, but I think I'm going to get the regular for that reason. :idea:

I bought both the mini hipster and the regular earlier this year (clearance sale! :banana: ) and I haven't used the mini one time. It's too "skinny" for what I usually carry. Plus the strap is really skinny. Some others have said they had trouble with the strap digging into their shoulder after a while.

Here's another thread on the same topic (http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=2152239).

I have one of each. I have found it hard to use the mini at Disney. Too small for all that I need to carry. The regular works best for me. I have found that the mini has worked well for me on day or weekend trips to other places.
