Vera Bradley Accordion Wallet in English Rose
I love big wallets that will hold more than I should probably be carrying. My first Vera Bradley wallet was a Turnlock Wallet in Cupcakes Green. I had that wallet FOREVER. By forever, I mean two years. Then I decided that I needed to try the Accordion Wallet because I had heard really good things about it. I bought one off a friend who decided it wasn't for her and I have used it ever sense...probably about a year. It is starting to wear out, so I decided it was time to get another wallet. I had bought a Va Va Bloom Turnlock Wallet a couple months ago, but decided that I wanted to stick with the Accordion Wallet, so I exchanged in last week when I was at the Vera Bradley store. They were out of English Rose, so they were able to order it and have it mailed to me. It arrived last week and now I am just waiting for my current wallet to wear out a little more before I move all my stuff into this one. I thought I would share some photos before I fill it up.
You can't help buy smile when you open a Vera Bradley box, they are so bright and fun when you open them up! on the right you can see all the compartments of the Accordion Wallet, there are three main sections.
This first side hold six cards, has a larger slip in pocket that is behind the credit card slots and the other side of it has a clear window to hold your ID.
The divider for these sections has the coin purse.
The other side of the wallet has six credit card spots and behind that there are two slip in parts that are as deep as the wallet, so you could maybe hide a folded up $20 bill in there to discover on some rainy day.
It opens up nice and wide so you can see everything inside.

Vera Bradley Best Friends Event
Sunday morning I was lucky enough to get to go to one of the local Vera Bradley stores for a Best Friends event. The store opened at 9:30am so that we could shop before the mall opened at 11:00am. It was so nice to just have a small group of us in the store.
The ladies at the Tysons store are always so delightful, I really enjoy shopping there. Everyone is so friendly and helpful. It is always a great experience!
After taking a bunch of photos at the new Towson store, I realized I should take more photos of the Tysons Corner Center store.
Blue door and sign, with wallpaper inside to coordinate!
Two displays in the store.
Me, Lisa and Emilee. I was carrying my Two Way Tote in English Rose, but you can't see it in this photo. It was great to be able to shop all morning and catch up with each other!
I guess I never noticed it before, but this store has a polka dot ottoman just like the one at Towson! The red room in the entry way to the store and the other photo is a desk display with lots of stationary items.
They had croissants with butter and jelly out for us and water bottles in Jazzy Blooms.
Here is the painting behind the register and the seating area.
While most of the new sales items were all in one section of the store, some were still mixed into the regular displays and had these cute tags to let you know they were part of the Spring Sale.
We each received a gift bag for $25 off our purchase of $75 or more...I'll show you what I bought next...and a nail file in the shape of sunglasses and a tape measure. Also for the very first time I won one of the giveaways! They had us all enter to win one of the two Plum Crazy Totes they were giving away and I won! I was pretty excited to win! I don't have a bag in Plum Crazy yet, so I can't wait to use my new tote!
I just picked up a few things. I was excited to get another Two Way Tote and I picked up the last one the store had in stock of Jazzy Blooms! I am loving this print and was happy to be able to take this one home with me. I also bought a set of hair ties in Plum Crazy and the new Large Market Tote which comes in Midnight Blues. It came in handy when I got home and needed to carry everything inside from the car. I could really load it up with a lot of stuff!
My day didnt stop there. I had heard the Vera Bradley Outlet was having a sale for 40% off everything, so I gave them a call to confirm and then decided to drive the extra 30 minutes to get there. I just picked up a few stationary items and luggage tags for myself. I also picked up a couple small gifts for a few friends. Plus it was a pretty nice day outside, so it was nice to shop around at the outdoor outlet mall.

New Vera Bradley Store at Towson Town Center
The newest Vera Bradley store opened on Friday, February 15 in Towson Maryland! On the following Saturday I was at another Vera Bradley store checking out the preview items and asked the sales ladies how far it would be to go to Towson. They said about 30 minutes and since I was already about an hour from home I decided to take the extra drive to go check it out.
I really enjoyed seeing the new store. I talked to a couple of the sales ladies. One moved from another Vera Bradley store and one was new to Vera Bradley. Both were delightful and seemed excited to be at the new store.
It is a beautiful store, check out my photos below.
Store front includes a hanging sign and I have only seen the hanging sign at one other store in Roseville, CA.
Welcome sign letting everyone passing by know this is the newest Vera Bradley store!
I loved this multi colored polka dot ottoman!
This made me smile, two gentleman reading in the sitting area, patiently waiting for their wives.
They were giving away a Bowler and wallet to celebrate the store opening
Of course there were cookies and water :) This couch looked so comfortable and it is a different style than I have seen in other stores. All of the furniture was beautiful.
All Vera Bradley stores have a larger piece of art behind the register by Ira Yeager. This one looks a little different from others, but I would assume it is still by Ira Yeager.
Mailbags hung up with ribbons, even more colorful!
I loved this shelf off to the side of the register.
Every store has this photo of Vera Bradley on a dresser near the entrance. Along with their guest book. Oh and that is me in the mirror!
A sign in the mall announcing that Vera Bradley is now open!
