My birthday is at the end of October and I received my coupon this past Saturday. It's for 40% off one item in-store or online, or 20% off your entire purchase at a Vera Bradley outlet store. Last year. I think my birthday coupon was for $20 off a purchase of $20 or more.

Yes! Thank you.

yesterday when i came home my coupon was waiting for me. 40% off is a great deal.
I think i will be getting Mandy in Canterburry Cobalt.

I have seen the Canterburry cobalt On the go, that pattern looks very nice in that style.
 
I love Vera Bradley, I have for a long time! I bought a new pattern every season for years! My all time favorite was Mocha Rouge! My go to work bag is my Vera in Mocha Rouge. I also loved the Pleated Tote and I was so disappointed when it was discontinued. I have yet to find a VB bag that I love as much as the Pleated Tote. I haven't bought anything VB until yesterday, I got 2 coffee mugs! One in Jazzy Blooms and one in Go Wild. I also love the Kiss lock wallet, I have that in Go Wild too! Hopefully something similar to the Pleated Tote will come out and I will be a happy girl!


I dont know if you heard but Pleated Tote and Villager will be released in some selected new patterns on November 7.

These patterns: Canterberry Magenta, Venetian Paisley, Heather, Plum Crazy and Midnight Blues

I imagine they would go quickly so if you want you should maybe pre-order with your store.

Yay! I'm glad your birthday coupon arrived safe and sound. Please post a picture of your Mandy when you get it.

Thanks, Zahrah!!
 
I think the colors and patterns are really pretty. I think of VB as the macaroni and cheese of handbags. Cozy and comfy. Not glamorous or out to impress. Very midwestern that way. (I don't mean that disparagingly. I love and live in the midwest. :laugh:)

This made me laugh! I live in the midwest, too, and know exactly what you mean!

I have a duffle and a cosmetic case in the Safari Sunset pattern. I LOVE it! So pretty!

I am going to order a tote in Canyon. It's a sale color, so marked down. Yay! My first VB purse. :)

So the Mandy in Canterburry Cobal has been sold out. The store told me new shipment will come sometimes end of November, beginnig of December.

So I got Mandy in Heather with intent to perhaps get the Canterbury cobalt later. I still want it.

They let me combine the Bday coupon with the other bright rewards coupoon promo they have going on. So I got extra 15% off on top of 40%.
 
I am not a fan. They were huge back when I was a freshman in high school. Everyone used them as backpacks, all the cool girls. I never had one though, I like more simple items then the crazy patterns. I do think they are great quality because people hold onto them for years.
 
I love Vera. :)

With that said, I love it for the bigger totes/luggage/makeup bags... stuff I don't carry a lot. If you use a Vera every single day (as I have in the past) it will get worn quickly. The straps, obviously a lot quicker, because it is cloth.

I love that they are awesome because of the washing capabilities. I have a ton, tons of patterns as well. I do love them, but they don't last for years and years.

^ I beg to differ. My Vera Bradley Diaper bag that I use as an occasional laptop/overnight bag has lasted 8 years now, color looks great (only washed once), a couple of stains but the pattern hides them well. I still get compliments on it and hardly and wear and tear :)
 
Not sure why peeps are crazy about them. The stores are always busy. Not a fan of the pattern ones at all as I find the pattern unappealing. They are good for running errand or grocery shopping. I like the hipster, comfy and clings to your body and adjustable straps are perfect. I only get the microfiber solid color ones as I dislike the crazy look of patterns, kinda like Laura Ashley or Anne of Green Gables style.

I agree with this. I have used a Vera Bradley diaper bag for 3 years now almost daily. It has went thru a lot and has carried a lot. Wipes, diapers, creams, and much more. Now it's mainly used for toys and clothes for the babysitter. It can b squeezed into the tightest spots if need be...nice too because it stays where u put it and if placed next to baby its soft. Funny thing is that it still looks good as new! No fraying. I can't imagine any other diaper bag...it's a trooper.

I just found out tonight, they brought the Pleated Tote back, its released November 7th!!!! This is my favorite tote as well...
 
I adore Vera Bradley! I like them because the patterns are so bright and fun and they are so lightweight. Currently I carry the Lizzie in Midnight Blues. I like how I can wear it crossbody or just over the shoulder. I also love my Clare in Happy Snails. The cheerful colors always make me smile ... even when it's a freezing winter day in New England! Plus, it's a nice change from my heavier leather and canvas bags.
