I am new to VB bags and so far just love the two I have purchased. I am addicted to handbags so I have many different styles from many designers. I don't find the VB bags to be expensive compared to other designer bags. I do think they will be a spring/summer type bag for me (reside in the Pacific NW). What I really like about them is how incredibly lightweight they are and the fact that they don't slip off my shoulder. I have and like baggallini however, the slipping factor of those bags drives me crazy! My personal style is more relaxed (Sundance catalog, Lucky Brand, etc.) so the print doesn't need to match anything I'm wearing as long as the colors are all incorporated. Anyway, I hope they remain available for years to come!

misschristy, thank you so much for sharing those thoughts with those of us that love our Vera bags
I'll keep your opinions in my mind the next time I go shopping for another Vera bag.

HI Sunala, I'm in agreement with you. If women don't like the Vera Bradley bags, they don't have to buy them. Leaves more for us!!!

Hi Pepper! I know, isn't it silly? We're minding our own business, enjoying our Vera chat, and some busybody has to come here and try to spoil it.
Yeah right, like she could! Enjoy your beautiful bags

sunala, I know I'm not going to let anyone keep me from enjoying the ones I have and buying more. Right now I'm carrying the Caroline bag in the ribbons pattern in memory of my dear Mom who passed away from breast cancer 7 1/2 years ago. A special memory on this Mother's day

I like the bags and think they are well made, machine washable, are great for travel or taking anyplace, really.
I do wish some of the prints were toned down a bit, but overall I still enjoy carrying these bags.
They are still popular in my area.

Hi Sunshine Kate. They are real popular in my area. I like that they are light weight & washable. I agree that they are well made also.
We will just keep on enjoying them!!
Take care

A hobo bag that would have sold on QVC for $50-60 when it was a new pattern, I got for $27.00 on a Buy It Now. I must have looked at 500 bags in that pattern because I wanted the pattern to show a lot of the pink flowers on the front (it's black background, with pink flowers and green leaves), also wanted outside pockets, so I was being very particular. Also got one in another retired pattern, Lemon Parfait, which is gray with yellow and turquoise. Both of these are new with the tags still on. The new patterns are also available on there, and you might find a deal on an auction basis. They have so many you can find just about any retired pattern.
kittymom, I love Botanica and would love that pattern, Lemon parfait is cute too! I have bought several from the Bay, I also use Buy it now and free shipping. I like many of the retired patterns too..you got a great deal, isn't it fun??
Botanica was my first, and is still my most favorite Vera Bradley pattern. I have it in the wallet, large duffel and the hipster. I wish they would bring it back in a limited edition!

Whereas, to me, I love the vivid, happy colors. With my back, they aren't too heavy and hold a lot of my stuff. There's mixtures of colors, I would never have tried before now. The price is right to me. You'll have to share where you've found some nicer prints, cause I love these and am open to any possibilities. Do share.
