Vera Bradley Grand Traveler?

[sydneysmom]

Just wondering if anyone has the Grand Traveler from Vera Bradley.... it looks like a fantastic bag and much dressier than just the large duffle. (plus it's got a shoulder strap) The weekender looks too small and I've got a VB that's very similar and never use it. My DH gave me a VB gift card for Christmas, so I'm thinking about getting the grand Traveler and the Get Carried Away Tote for travel....

I'm very interested to see if anyone's got one and how you like it!

I have it and it is a good bit bigger than the weekender. For me, the weekender would probably be more useful. It would be great for a longer trip though.

I have it. I love it for long weekends in the car. I wouldn't use it for plane travel because it is SO big it does get heavy if you are an over packer like myself. So for plane travel i personally prefer a roller bag (one of my best friends loves it for her carry on, so it's all up to preference) but for me for a long weekend it's absolutely perfect. It can fit like 5 changes of clothes, plus PJ's, toiletries, make up, hair products and an extra pair of shoes. I LOVE the shoulder strap option rather than just the two long handles. If you really love it, go for it and try it out at home and if it's too big or heavy you can exhange it for the weekender which is almost exactly the same bag but smaller. (and a few pocket differences)

I have the Grand Traveler and love it. It's a great all purpose bag. I use it for weekend trips, it has nice pockets. I bought this and the weekender and ended up sending the weekender back

thanks everyone for your help!! I went on and ordered the Grand Traveler and the Get Carried Away Tote in Very Berry Paisley!! That pattern was 40% off too! I'm so excited for it to get here!!!!!!! Now it's going to have to sit and wait for June when I can use it to go to Disney!!
