Vera Bradley

LAltiero85 · Feb 16th, 2007, 05:47 PM

This is just my opinion...but I happen to like the Vera Bradley line. Maybe that makes me a dork

, or a hick or something, but I think they are super cute for spring and summer for a more laid back look...when you are just in shorts and a tee, and at the park or beach. I guess I probably sound like an idiot, or a low-life, but I do like them...maybe it's because I'm still in college, I dunno...what do you guys think, are they really that bad?

I don't like them at all. At my school, everywhere you look you see a Vera Bradley bag, and I'm just tired of them i guess.

Don't worry, you're not alone...I love Vera Bradley (and I don't care who knows it!

)
I think they are well made bags, with some cute patterns (and some...

blech patterns) but one thing that's great about them...the POCKETS! I wish I could find other bags like that...

It doesn't make you a dork at all Lalteiro! To each their own. And it was featured on Sex and the city (when Carrie was about to go on vacation w/ Big but then backed out). Is Carrie a dork? Ok, maybe I'm the dork for writing that. Haha.

Me too -- I have a really cute one, it holds all my stuff and has like eight pockets, which is awesome.

They d/c'ed my pattern though. :(

I thought some of the patterns resembled pot holders, but I am sort of gradually warming up to them. I think as a beach bag, they would be nice.

Thanks everyone! I didn't know they were actually featured on Sex and the City...that's pretty cool!

I like Vera Bradley!!! It doesn't make you a dork or a low life! Vera is pretty pricey and the reason you see them everywhere is because they are popular! I have a couple of Vera totes that I love for going to the pool in the summer or my daughter uses on over nights. I have seen some of the new colors for the spring and I love them!! Go for it!

Thanks, BagLadie!

Some of them are really cute. As long as the rest of your outfit is simple and casual, I think they look fresh.

APhiJill · Feb 17th, 2007, 10:36 AM

I must be a dork too! Because I love me some Vera bags

fendigal · Feb 17th, 2007, 10:38 AM

Personally it isn't my style, but I have seen some girls carry them and they look cute. I used to criticize VB, but I have come to realize some people may think my bags, like the Spy aren't beautiful either and they don't get it.
I have now come to the philosophy live and let live.

shopafrolic · Feb 17th, 2007, 11:32 AM

i agree, i wouldnt necessarily use one in the winter, i used to have one but sold it. I would have no problem using it at the club during summer as a pool bag, it still amazes me how much you can fit in the things!

LAltiero85 - you are definitely not a dork or a hick because you like Vera Bradley! To each her own

Be well.

Don't EVER call yerself a low-life, because you like a certain bag! You sound like a wonderful person and nobody should ever put themselves down for liking something.. *hugs*
