I did it. I'm officially a grandmother...

I ordered a Vera Bradley bag.

I haven't ever thought they were all that or anything --- however I did like some of the colors.  Not too fond of the quilting as it looks like something my grandmother would carry.  But hey, they are cute and all.

I've been wanting to get a new small travel bag --- I have a Coach one but it's pretty freaking beat up at this point.  And my friend was placing an order and well, they had one that was a retiring color that is fun for summer and was only $20, so I added it to her order.  Of course, I HAD to get the matching wallet, and checkbook cover and cell phone cover (of course I did, I'm a total accessories girl).

I can't believe I ordered a Vera!

Yay!  Now all you need is to start knitting.  LOL  Then you're ready for the rocking chair.

I have 2 VB diaper bags, and the first time I carried the first one to Target, a super old lady (riding a scooter cart no less) had a purse in the SAME PATTERN. ?Sometimes, you gotta embrace your inner old lady, I guess (and I love how hard they are to stain/easy they are to wash)

I recommend getting the accessories in a slightly different print-- it's sometimes hard to find my wallet/make up bag/ key ring when everything's paisley!?

oh dear...Vera Bradley is  like.. birthcontrol in the form of of handbags. Because no self respecting man would have the sex with a girl carrying one.

because they have a special compartment inside for prunes. and a special AARP flip out card holder.

Jodi...I am AGHAST!!

I am strongly in opposition to anyone owning a Vera Bradley handbag at an age younger than 65.

I OPPOSE!!

FWIW, my little sister is 20 and lives in Ohio. She and ALL of her friends have VB bags and every possible accesory. So maybe you're actually regressing?

Ohio is Vera land.  The company is based there so everyone has one.  That said I have a large duffel for travel and love it.  It's the Java Blue pattern so it's not quite as old lady as some of the other ones.

LOL!

I have seen them all over college campuses in the West.  That being said, even if I didn't see them there I would still own them.  I love them!  My purse right now is a Vera...
