New Patterns -- What's Your Favorite?

I was just at the VB site looking at the new patterns and products again. My DD got a code today so I'm tempted to place an order with her. Have any of you ordered a little something for yourself today? What's your favorite new pattern? I actually like all of them this time. I'm thinking of maybe ordering a Mandy in Flutterby.

I like two of the prints, but I don't think I'm going to order. I have enough bags that I don't carry now. I got on the Vera craze about 1 year ago and I've gone CRAZY. Now, I realize you don't even carry all these bags. What I might buy is the market totes in the new prints for 8.00 so I have the new print but not buy an expensive item.

I am never one to like anything in the purple family , but I think Flutterby is just gorgeous!

I also like Flower Shower very much! It has me tempted as I have a coupon for 20% off.
I could so go crazy- as in the last couple of weeks, I have ordered three bags and wallets. {#emotions_dlg.blush}

They are my first. I have only received one color so far, Midnight Blues and I am in love!{#emotions_dlg.wub}

The other two wallets and two bags have just shipped.

Right now I have 6 items in my cart . {#emotions_dlg.sneaky}{#emotions_dlg.blushing}{#emotions_dlg.ohmy}

I could so do what sunshine3215 did ! LOL ! {#emotions_dlg.laugh}

Yeah, Twocent....don't make my mistake. These bags are going no where...and the only one who has to pay for them is YOU. I have so many wallets, throws, dinner napkins (which I wear I my hair) placements ( which I put on my nightstand), totes, purses, and I love the messengerbags...so I was buying a lot of the off Ebay. I was just a VB groupie, and when I like a print I'd buy several things in that print, then a new print comes out that you like better...then it goes on and on.

Plus I was buying at the VB site and QVC, please....now...when I have a gift to give someone...... I go right in my closet. Some will say...yuke...but ...what am I gonna do...give them away to the salvation army....no....I might have carried a bag 3 times...it is STILL NEW...and I give it away as a gift.

Well I don't think "yuk" - I think anyone would be pleased to have one and I can't see it looking any different than "new" after 3 times. The recipient would "know you" and not mind. It wouldn't be like ordering a new bag and receiving one , that a stranger had carried and paying a new price. It is indeed a gift.

I know I could so get carried away so easily, esp. with the new prints. But I have also seen how cheap the sale prices can be on previous prints. I got in on that deal and saved tons with an additional $20 coupon .

I am debating on placing another order, but with 20% off the new colors- they are still pricey.

Will have to do some more thinking before hitting that submit button. I will have three bags and matching wallets , along with other brands of bags I own. I can only care one at a time {#emotions_dlg.laugh} -and trust me, I have plenty stashed that I never carry {#emotions_dlg.blush}. Those will be going to my local animal shelter for their yard sale.

You are right, VB isn't going anywhere, no rush!

Well I went by the Vera Bradley store and got this sports duffle style but in the Fanfare (Black & White). Everything was nice !! I got to reach in a gift bag and got a 20% coupon making it even nicer. The Flower Shower was a close 2'nd and would wok right into fall.

I'd have to see them in person to decide. They really do look a lot different when you're up close and personal with them!

Definite possibilities there......

I LOVE the petal paisley, BUT I don't think they make the handbag 100 anymore! I have been collecting that bag since the 90's.{#emotions_dlg.sad}

Re: New Patterns -- What's Your Favorite?

Flower Shower is definitely my personal favorite. I purchases the new slim hipster and the regular hipster in this pattern yesterday as well as 2 clearance market bags and for orders of over $125 you get the travel duffle free in Flutterby. I like the Flower Shower because it's more laid back and casual like me.
