New Patterns -- What's Your Favorite?

deercreek — Thu, 20 Mar 2014 21:15:48 GMT

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.

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

The other two wallets and two bags have just shipped.

Right now I have 6 items in my cart .

I could so do what sunshine3215 did ! LOL !

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 -and trust me, I have plenty stashed that I never carry . 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.

Mine Very Popular today

This was cute also

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.

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.

if anyone is planning on spending over $125 today then you may want to pop over to the VB website OR run into a store instead of buying from qvc. they are offering a free flutterby collapsible duffle with any purchase over $125 (it is a $45 value)

I like the new Flower Power and my daughter likes Fanfare.

I'm excited for the shows today!!

All are pretty, but I like some of the others for now.

DD and I went to a Vera Bradley shop yesterday. Our favorite new design was Flutterby. In fact the sales lady said they had sold more bags in the Flutterby since the new patterns hit the shelves. Sometimes the colors seem a little different when you actually see them in a store.

I can't believe it but after Heather colors, I am in love with the Bittersweet. I don't use those colors at all, but it catches my eye and now I have a purse in it. I just love it, well, all of them.

The last few times VB has been on, I haven't fallen in love with the patterns - but this time I really like Flutterby and Flower Shower -- but I have too many bags now that I don't carry and I'm trying really hard to be a "good girl" and not buy any more!

No fun in that. It isn't working too well for me. I can't resist. I think I must have Flower Shower and more Midnight Blues- to go with the wallet and mailbag I just received. Happy Snails and Lola bags and wallets , are still enroute.

Actually if you spend $125 you can get the free collapsible duffle in your choice of any of the four new patterns. It isn't just the Flutterby pattern they are offering. I believe that pattern comes up as the default online when you checkout but you can click on it in your shopping bag and change it to one of the other new patterns if you want to.

thanks JSL.....didnt realize you could change the pattern online. i have a VB store close by AND a large jewelry store that has a large VB section in the store. the jewelry store did let me choose the pattern that i wanted. i got the petal paisley in that piece and will put it away as a gift for one of my daughters.

i have been collecting pieces in the ribbons pattern.
