HELLO ? MICKEY? ARE YOU THERE?It's me again, and again, and again.....TR STARTED 6/3

[stace208]

Whew! I got way behind due to my crazy week but I am all caught up now!
Love all the pictures of your surprise snow storm. We had snow today for the 3rd Saturday in a row but like you, it all goes away quickly. Fine by me because if we miss anymore school it is Saturdays for us.

Love the VB bags!! I, too, got a mailbag for my park bag. I love the size of it for the parks but it's too big to use as an everyday purse for me. I was thinking about getting a mini hipster for my DD. Would it fit a standard size autograph book and some other small odds and ends? I'm very limited in places near me that sell VB and it's so hard to tell from pictures.

I love your t-shirts too. I'm going to have to check Wally world!

I posted almost those exact pictures on my last PTR (of the VB boxes).

I love the raspberry fizz pattern!

 

[MHTeacher]

Love them, love them, love them. That is my FAVORITE pattern!!! I cannot decide which one to get. Maybe I should just borrow/rent one of yours

Sure, Mary, you can just borrow one of ours....We have entirely too many. You have two girls, so watch out---- one day soon, you'll see.....

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your new VB's!! I've been looking at getting either a hipster or a mail bag for the parks.

My girls always carry one of their hipsters at the parks, and I have borrowed one of theirs at times to carry. But there's just enough room for all the "stuff" I have to carry!

I love your VB. I'm glad you posted your pix. It reminds me that I have bid on some on ebay and I need to go check it.......lol.

Thanks, Dana! I'm new to the eBay scene, but it is easily addicting! I'm finding it a little hard to remember to keep up with stuff I've bid on ! I guess I'm too scattered-brained!

LOVE the VB bags!!! I have the same Hipster in Raspberry Fizz that I'm using right now!!! When Claire was a baby, I had the baby bag in Mod Floral Pink!!!

Really, Becky? That's funny. I remember in your May TR photos, that you have a hipster in Cupcakes Pink. Elizabeth has that same purse, too.

I love Mod Floral Pink---one of my all-time-faves!

Love the new Vera bags! I really like the mailbag, but wonder if it is big enough for what I need. How does it seem size-wise?

I don't know what all you carry, Jackie, but it seems plenty big to me. Like I'd mentioned, I like to carry the girls' hipsters because I love that cross-body style while I'm at Disney. But I never seems to have enough room for all the stuff that gets handed to me. So I thought the mailbag is kind-of-a hipster, only larger. It has a lot of zips and pockets----I LOVE pockets!

Our snow was gone by the next morning, and we are like you all----I heard that if we miss anymore, it's Saturday school for us! YUCK!!

I don't think I would want to carry the mailbag everyday either. I usually carry a VB tote or curvy tote for my everyday bag.

I did a test mini-hipster test for you. It will hold a standard size autograph book and some small odds and ends---pen, chap stick, etc. There is an open flap on the back side of the purse, and a zip pocket on the front flap. Try VB's website. They have several patterns on clearance in the mini-hipster, and there may be free shipping by the 15th... , maybe....can't remember!

I call it VB porn!

 

[stace208]

so much for testing that for me Michelle! I think I'll head to the website and ebay and see what I can find for her!

 

[WizardLarz]

Women and Bags!

 

[SOUTHERNtinkerBELLE]

Love the bags!

Aw, I missed dancing with you on double digit day!

[wigdoutdismom]

Love the Vera update! It would be embarrassing to do an inventory for me too, such an addiction! I have a few pieces in the Raspberry Fizz and the Mod Floral Pink love them! Such cheery prints!
I'm waiting for the Cupcake Green to arrive in the mailbag for St. Paddy's day at Disney! I fell in love with Happydog's bag at Christmas.
I just bought Megan a new VB diaper bag for Valentine's Day....

You're so welcome Stacy! I hope you find a great bargain!

Women and Bags!

We must have bags to carry around all the stuff our husbands hand us to keep up with!

Love the bags!

Thanks, Courtney!

Aw, that's ok, Kathy. You can come over and dance on any day!

Oohh...I love the Cupcake Green, and even better to have holiday/coordinated bag to carry in Disney!

The mailbag I ordered is the first one I've ever had. I think I would like carrying it. Notice I said "would"........I actually scored a major bargain on something else just recently, so I may be sending the ModFloralPink mailbag back.

I'll post more later and explain!

 

[leamom2princesses]

Great VB choices Michelle! I'm addicted too. I've been looking at ebay too. I need a new backpack. I think I do anyway.

 

[wigdoutdismom]

This will be my first mailbag. I'm a bit worried about the flap...
I carried the VB frill backpack at Christmas and loved it!
The matching frill tote is my purse these days! Lots of compliments on that thing!
The suspense over your switch is driving me nuts! Fess up!

 

[The4bits]

LOVE the VB bags. I myself was thinking of purchasing a hipster for our trip but I still have so much time to decide.

Thanks, Leanne! Yeah, I'm always thinking I "need" a new VB!

Yeah, the flap thing sort of bothers me in that it is just a magnetic close. But I've opened it up several times, and let the flap go, and it does self-close...if that's the right way to describe it.

Yes...I remember your pictures of you with your frill backpack in Symphony in Hue. I even asked you about it on your PTR......So you see, Anita, you might be indirectly related to this switch!! Hint, Hint.....

LOVE the VB bags. I myself was thinking of purchasing a hipster for our trip but I still have so much time to decide.

Thanks! You do have a little time, don't you. Of course, September will be here before you know it. You'll have several new VB patterns released before then to choose from!

Well, a little VB sidenote/update again....

I needed to pick up a birthday gift for Rachel to take to a party this weekend, so I ran into a little shop in town that carries VB. I told the sales associate that I was looking for a birthday gift for a 14 year old girl, and aksed if they had any discontinued styles/patterns on sale. She pointed to a basket and said, "That's all we have on sale." I glanced over and noticed a Frill/Imperial Toile backpack. I knew that even on sale, it would be too much money for a teen-ager's birthday gift---Regular price- $94.

However, I had seen wigd's backpack on her TR and really liked it, so I pulled it out and put it on, and discovered I really liked it. Then I looked at the sign on the basket.....60% off!!!! That made it $37!! I love a bargain like that!

DONE DEAL....I quickly picked out a birthday gift for the friend, and walked out with that backpack for myself !

Now I just have to decide if I keep the ModFloralPink mailbag I had ordered for myself, or return it......

 

[SoonerGirl]

Wow! Great deal on the backpack & soooo cute!

On whether or not to return the other one..........a girl can never have too many bags..........

 

[wigdoutdismom]

Love it! Keep the mail bag, I agree with with Michelle!

I knew before I asked, that all ya'll would tell me to keep both bags!

 

[Charleston Princess]

Cute backpack and what a deal! I think you should keep both -- you may want to switch around!
