Vera Bradley Handbags

We all secretly agree that there are way too many rules to handbags. If you use a leather one, you're supposed to match it to your shoes to your belt, to any other leather you're wearing. You can't wear a white one past Labor Day. And the bag needs to match the occasion in its level of formality. I personally like the style and designer tastes of Vera Bradley Handbags.  It would be great if there were a bag that was valid for any event, that could be worn any time of year, and was perfectly valid at any event you brought it to and that is what Vera Bradley Handbags are.

But there actually is a bag like that. It's that colorful pretty bag at the wedding or funeral that everyone says they like, the one that stands out from the sea of black and gray. It is a bag that can be washed in the laundry and will not get ruined, and withstands trips to the beach and the ski ranch. They are very durable and relatively inexpensive, especially considering the fact that they last for practically an eternity. Coming in virtually every shape, size and pretty color known to woman, they could only be Vera Bradley handbags.

Founded in 1982 by Vera Bradley's daughter, Barbara Bradley Baekgaard and fellow designer Patricia Miller, the initial goal of the Vera Bradley handbag company was to bring femininity to practical bags and luggage. The franchise is arguably best known for its vibrant cotton or microfiber, often florally printed handbags; which range in size and shape from tiny purses to large, heavy-duty duffel and tote bags. However, Vera Bradley handbags are now accompanied by various accessories, including casual footwear, sunglasses and cases, towels and stationery products. The My Home line features an array of carpets, and there is even a special Vera collection for men.

Some Vera Bradley handbags are reversible and they come in all sorts of colors and patterns. Most have a secure zip closure and come in a range of shapes. The Stephanie tote is fourteen inches long and built to fit as much of your stuff as possible; it even has external pockets, comes in twenty colorful prints plus four "sale prints" on VeraBradley.com, and usually goes for $65-$70. The adorable Morgan comes in many of the same colors as the Stephanie and while it costs about five dollars less, its outside pockets and three inside sections make Morgan designed with organization in mind; it comes in the same twenty-four colors. A few of the larger bags include the Small Duffel, the Weekender and the Super Tote, many of which range from $75 to $95 and come in most of the same colors.

While Vera Bradley handbags are also sometimes also known for having a high price tag, most Vera items are far less expensive than many expect, with the majority of their products falling well under the one-hundred dollar mark. Even if you don't need a Vera Bradley handbag yourself, they make great gifts for any occasion: everyone loves them, and a practical gift is an awesome way to show that you put a good deal of thought into what to give someone. An expectant mom who received one at her baby shower could use her new Vera Bradley handbag to carry all her new baby's amenities in one container while traipsing from place to place, and a new bride would most likely appreciate the bag while travelling on her honeymoon!
