Vera Bradley

Twenty-five years ago a friendship and a simple idea became Vera Bradley. A Southern lady's staple, Sorority girls favorite and now known across the country these cotton quilted handbags, travel items, accessories are fabulous. More recently they’ve branched out to fine tableware, rugs, linens, luggage, stationery and eyewear too.


My favorite is the classic large duffel. You can pick from one of their many great fabrics – my favorite is Cambridge. The duffel is perfect for trips. It’s the perfect size – I can keep putting more and more items in it.

$80 for the Large Duffel.


In honor of their 25th Anniversary there are two sparkling limited edition items - a kisslock purse and a petite purse. I love them. Sparkly beads, silver closure with bright fuchsia satin lining. Beautiful. A great evening bag.

$150 for The Kisslock Purse and $60 for the Petite Purse.
