Vera Bradley is a brand most people are familiar with. I have a couple of Vera Bradley bags for daily use, I love the versatility of their brands and how the line keeps expanding. The brand has some cool pieces for the holidays and I wanted to share my favorites with you.
Holiday Owls – Winter 2018
The release of this pattern isn’t like any other. In fact, the holiday pattern is perhaps one of the most anticipated prints of the year. Vera Bradley loves to keep you guessing about what the latest little critter frolicking about on a festive pattern will be.
This snowy creature seemed like the perfect fit as we enter the holiday season. Keep on reading to find out why our designers knew owls would be a hoot!
For Print Designer Lillian Noga, the inspiration for Holiday Owls all began with a vintage scarf. This simple accessory drew from the same Americana landscapes theme that has inspired our design team all season long.
Lillian also turned to our fall 2008 pattern, Night Owl, for inspiration. What resulted was Holiday Owls, an updated pattern with woodland, bandana-esque vibes and festive owls delivering season’s greetings. Holiday Owls can be found in various Iconic styles.
Our owl friends can also be seen on Owls, a gray pattern available in several of our Iconic styles. The print Night Owls boasts the same dark ground and celestial details of Holiday Owls, but with fewer festive accents, making it wearable year-round.
Since Holiday Owls is limited-edition (and most wearable during the holiday season) I recommend getting this pattern in a style you know you can wear nearly every day during the most wonderful time of the year! The Triple Zip Hipster is a perfect everyday bag and with Holiday Owls having such a dark ground, this print mixes well with pretty much every sweater in your closet. We especially love the look of the dark sky blue against a light gray to give you all of those wintry feels.
Leather Carry Bags
The leather is something new for Vera Bradley. Leather gives you a sense of style and sophistication, I always need a big tote to carry all of my papers and stuff in my purse. I also love matching my bag to my outfit. Vera Bradley has given me the option to do this. The line consists of the crossbody to the tote.
This line is made from the same vegetable-tanned leather that was used before. However, what was most important in this collection was bringing our heritage quilting details to our leather handbags.
While the Carryall Collection is inspired by our heritage, what’s new and exciting about this leather line is the price. Believe it or not, almost every single style in this collection retails for under $200. This makes it a great holiday gift for that special person in your life. I love to give one to a young lady graduating college and on her first job.
I have gotten so many compliments on my bags, and no one believes it when I say it is Vera Bradley.
