Restyled Mini Hipster for Fall 2012
A big thank you to the OhMyVera reader who sent in these photos of the restyled Mini Hipster! I know some of you will be really happy since you were disappointed that it was retiring.
Some of the updates are the strap is wider and adjustable. The shape is more square than the last one. The closure is a snap instead of Velco. Not sure about what else might be different, guess we will have to wait to see one in person or until the description gets posted by Vera Bradley.
I would assume that it will be released with the other Fall 2012 bags on July 10th. (Remember, dorm items will be released June 28th)
Update: More photos!!
And the description from April: New version is great -- has adjustable strap AND a flap on the front. At the top of the front flap is a zipper, which turns the flap part into a mini 'pouch'. Then, when you lift the flap, you see the clear plastic compartment that showcases your I.D., and a second pouch that holds many credit cards and your money -- in there is yet ANOTHER zipper which could hold coins, small items, etc. - Thanks April!!!
This is cute....
ReplyDeleteI like it! It looks like it has a thicker strap!
ReplyDeleteWhat are the updates?
ReplyDeleteOf course, restyled after I just bought one. Haha. I guess I'll have an excuse to get the newer version. Still no adjustable strap? That would have been nice. Cute pattern too!
ReplyDeleteI think the strap is adjustable! Look at the first pic near the right side of the bag there is one of those metal buckle things!

ReplyDeleteThe wider strap and snap closure should be great additions. That being said, I'm very excited that the old version went on sale for $29. I'm hoping to get one in either Lime's Up or Pricilla Pink when I'm at a Sig store tomorrow. I've got so much stuff in my diaper bag, I've decided it would be easier if I could carry my wallet, cell, etc in something else. I think the mini hipster will be the perfect size and then no more digging through a huge bag!
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping the inside is still as big as before cos that inside zipper looks smaller to me. The front flap pocket looks fatter. I'm very happy with the snap as that Velcro they had before was crap.
ReplyDeleteYou are most welcome Alison! I am a huge Vera fan as well and any and all info I receive that you don't already have/know I will be sure to pass them along so that you can post for all the other fans out there and of your blog!!! :o)
ReplyDeleteLoving the restyled mini hipster! All the changes that were made were to things that kept me from buying the old version. Can't wait to pick one up in Indigo Pop.
ReplyDeleteI will have to see this one in person to decide. I like the Velcro. Easy just to close and know it was closed. Snaps you have to work at...not so sure I will buy this one. As far as adjustable straps I just would knot the current style to where I wanted it. No issues. I am going to stock up on the old style. I know I like it:)
