Where in the World is Vera? Highclere Castle

I received a wonderful idea from OhMyVera reader Cathy last week.  She was traveling with her friend Pam and they snapped a photo in front of Highclere Castle (some of you might know it better as Downton Abbey) in Newbury, England.  It looks like the women had a fabulous trip!  

  I love the idea of sharing photos from Vera Bradley on your travels!  I recently shared one of mine from a trip to Russia, which can be seen here.      If you have any photos of you and your Vera Bradley bags on a trip that you would like to share, please email them to me at ohmyvera@gamil.com.  Include your name and where you traveled to.  I will try to post as many of them as I can.

Vera Bradley Large Colorblock Tote: Sun Valley #vbcolorblock

Two weeks ago I ran into the Vera Bradley store with my friend Amber because she was looking to see if there was anything on sale she might want to pick up for her flower girls for her upcoming wedding.  Her eye caught the colorblock totes and one of the women brought out this Sun Valley Large Colorblock Tote.  Amber and I both loved it, but she had more self control that I did.  She left the store with nothing and I bought the tote for myself and some of the Lola Hairpins for my sister. The tote was 50% off, so I decided it was time to pick one up! 

I'm loving this big slouchy tote! 

Great slip in pockets on each end. 

Key fob clip and zipper pocket. 

The base can flip up so that it will lay flat when you store it.

In addition to that great news, in the Spring they will be bringing back some of our favorite styles including the Curvy Tote and Bucket Tote!   For those of you who are newer to Vera Bradley below are what the Curvy Tote and Bucket Tote styles look like.  It is hard to tell from these stock photos, but the curvy tote is taller than the bucket tote and lays pretty flat against your body, while the bucket tote is a little shorter and is a little wider.

That is all the information I have for now, if I hear anything else I will update the blog post!

Vera Bradley Baby Bags - Kristin's Baby Shower

My good friend and sorority sister from college is having her first baby (a boy!!) in November and her family and friends could not be more happy for her! Two weekends ago we all got together for a really nice baby shower hosted by her mother.  Worth noting, her mother and grandma are also Vera Bradley fans and Kristin has a few pieces from when she was younger.

Kristin was lucky enough to get not one, but two Vera Bradley baby bags at the shower.  I picked up the Tutti Fruitti Make a Change Baby Bag and a family friend picked up the Provencal Baby Bag.  What a lucky mother to be!  That is her current little princess Loki posing for a photo with the bags.  I was also able to find a super cute fleece sleeper that had a french bulldog on it, too cute! 
Congrats Kristin and Sean!  I can't wait to meet your little one!
