I just wanted to pass along a note that the VB Online Outlet just opened this evening and will close again in 4 days. 

Happy shopping!

@LIG1   Thank you !!  Also, on the regular VB site, you can personalize a bag for yourself or as a special gift.

@hicindy2  Beautiful patterns! Would you believe me if I told you I gave my entire Vera Bradley collection to Goodwill? The only handbags/totes I have now are 8 Dooney & Bourke and a few of each of the Lug carousal 2, charter, and scoop...with 1 mambo

@Susan Louise  Good for you for paring down. I have tried to "cull the herd" over the past year.  My rule is if one comes in, two go out.    

I am down to MZ Wallace, some Dooney picks (nylon), a couple of Lugs, a couple of Patricia Nash, and 3 Coach totes,and VB forever. Oh and one Radley picture bag. because I love the squirrels. 

I always pick the small Vera tote and the Weekender bags...

Just put away my all time Summer pick:  Go Fish

Really like the new for Fall patterns:  I am sure they'll have a discount soon on the "regular" VB site. Macy's often gets the new patterns too and they have frequent sales. 

So hard to pick a favorite !!

Always grab the cubes too when there is a sale.  Perfect for housewarming gifts, Secret Santa etc.

New pattern just today and already selling out:  Cat's Meow

@hicindy2 The cats are very cute and I love that blue-grey background color. 

[this is my nic]

I have a few Vera Bradley bags, most were gifts.  I appreciate the gifts, but except for a travel bag that I purchased, I don't use the others.  Today, while looking at handbags on the Q site, there were reviews stating that the Q doesn't sell the same quality Vera Bradley bags as those found in b&m stores.  The example given was because the bag being discussed, purchased at QVC, had a solid interior and "real" VB bags have a contrasting print interior.  

If you have a VB collection, what do you think?  I don't want to offend a true collector by giving them a lesser quality bag. 

Thanks!
