    Love this new feature Collin! I agree with the VB bags. I don’t get it either. I must say that I haven’t really seen any real cute purses or good deals on them lately. I need a new one. lol

  2. almadh

    Yeah!!!! Way to go Collin! I love it that you keep it real!!!

  3. Susan

    Just had time to go through your first video…..cracked up! I walk into shops and see those VB bags and just don’t get it either! So not hip.

    So I had no idea what a Vera Bradley bag was so of course I had to go google it… : ) I realized that I had seen them around and I get the appeal but I could never spend that much on one… They look like something I could make with some cute fabric and my sewing machine and it would cost a whole lot less than $50.

    Just my thoughts : )

    I had to google it, too… um, I’m 110% on board with you, Collin! I mean, SERIOUSLY, if I brought one of those bags home, my husband would probably threaten to leave me, lol.

  6. Candice

    VB…yep, I don’t get it. That kinda creep me out. 🙂

    I never even heard of Vera Bradley, until I moved to NC, and they are everywhere!

    The Vera Bradley purses are very popular with the middle school and high school girls in my town.

  9. Heather C.

    LOL! I LOVE Vera Bradley bags! 😀

    Haha This is too funny because I had the same opinion. I kind of thought they were grandma looking but a patient came in the other day with the everything wristlet and it seemed very versatile! It was holding her credit cards and her phone and she never had to drag a purse around! I thought how amazing and even though I don’t care for the look the idea is perfect and I am thinking about getting one for at least travel if nothing else!!

    I LOVE Vera Bradley items…especially the lunch bag. So CUTE!

    I confess I was one who did not getter Vera Bradley thing at all, but some of my friends and I go for weekend trips and they bring their duffle bags which hold a ton and are washable. Seeing 60% on some tolerable patterns got me. I got one for myself, my 12 year old and my 8 year old niece. Perfect for sleepovers. Stuff in the pillow, sleeping bag, Jammie’s and a change of clothes. It all fits!

    I just saw this video Colin , so funny,! My 7th grader begged me for a VB backpack and I went all out on a campaign to show her how these are old lady bags! While out running my errands I took pics of every granny I saw with one of these quilted bags…. Crazy!
