Vera Bradley bags - What do you like about them?

[Disney-Kim]

The Totally Turq is pretty in person. That's the only spring pattern i could see having an interest in.

Where did you guys see the new Spring colors? at your stores?
I have not been to our store in a couple weeks...did I miss something?

I googled it and there are pics of the new Spring colors. Also, VB posted pics of Summer 2010 colors on their Facebook page. (Not sure if you need to become a fan to see them.)

The store around here has the summer patterns in for a little test preview. I think I am going to get the new purple one. I was really looking forward to the pink one...unfortunately in the picture it is more pink than it really is...it's more of an orangey color (it's called Call Me Coral).

I personally love VB! HOWEVER, I like simple leather purses. (My Coach Madison Sabrina in dark brown is my favorite bag I have ever owned!)
I like VB's travel things-- I have the large duffel (cupcakes pink) and the weekender (purple punch). I make weekend trips fairly often, and the weekender is the perfect size. I also use it as my plane carry-on. The large duffel is the perfect size for more than 3 nights. I really just like having fun travel pieces! Looking at their bright colors gets me excited to go wherever I'm going. They're also super soft, easy to carry, and easy to shove lots of things into!
Like I said, I don't really go for their purses at all, but I'd owned 3 different zip id's, two coin purses that I used as camera cases, other small things, and of course, a hipster for WDW! I never carry it outside the World, but I loved the easy access of all my stuff, as well as the even distribution of weight.
I can't realize say why I love them! The patterns are cheery and they add fun touches to pieces that would ordinarily be boring. I have a Coach wallet that I use as my regular wallet, but the zip id's are much easier to just throw the liscnce and CC in if I'm just running up the street to the grocery store.
My favorite patterns are cupcakes pink, purple punch, and of the new patterns, think blue rapsohdy is pretty.

Thanks for the lovely pictures! I went to the VB store for the 1st time on Friday and it was so colorful and pretty that I wanted to take pictures too!

Nice pictures! I'm hoping to buy my mom a bag in Cafe Latte for Xmas. I'm thinking of going with "Betsy." if anyone has it please let me know how you like it. And I'm hoping for a free shipping code or other online discount!

I have been resisting but all of those wonderful pictures are making me weak! I want a new VB badly now. Hmmmmm what to do what to do?? This is my little obsession and I was never a handbag fan until VB came on the scene. Oh, and Brighton! Wonderful stuff and I am lucky enough to have a shop near me that carries a huge line of both!

The VB website has small tic tac totes on sale for $19. The colors are limited and change. I wanted Puccini and it disappeared last night but came back this morning. Cafe latte was there but I hesitated and lost it. Oh well. I bought a few for gifts. They were originally $55, on sale for $19 and I entered "10offsale" in the coupon code, so they only came to $17.10!

haha, I was never a handbag fan either. Then my sister found out about them from her roommate...now I have way more than any person should ever own. It is bad.

Color me obsessed, too! I am sitting here with my Blue Rhapsody agenda, my Bali Gold eyeglasses case, my Mesa Red eyeglasses, my Symphony in Hue Reversible Tote and my work tote -- the Frill line's Paprika SOI. Facebook has a Vera Bradley community -- you can usually find some good deals there. (My Mesa Red eyeglasses were only $42 and they're adorable!)

After years of not really liking Vera bags, I've just ordered myself the new Emma in the "Sitting in a Tree" pattern. Don't know what caught my eye about that style or pattern, but it looks like a sweet little girly purse - something cheerful on this dreary winter day.

Of course I realize that this will be like potato chips . . . once I try it, I will not be able to stop at just one . . .

I *love* the Little Betsy and have 3. I also have the backpack in Kensington and Mod Floral Pink. I did use the Kensington one quite a few times but the Mod Floral Pink one I used maybe a week. Now they are just hanging in my closet. I think I am going to sell them. Perfectly good but I prefer the Little Betsy's
