Vera Bradley!

The Fall 2009 Vera Bradley magazine/catalogue came a few days ago. It got caught in the deluge and is quite water-logged. I'm going to post a few of my faves her to save them and they're so pretty!

Hope Garden is my favorite printat the moment. I love all the colors. Blue Rhapsody is pretty too, especially for fall. It looks a little faded here. It's brighter in person. The bag pictured below the print swatch is in the Blue Rhapsody print and you can see the colors better. I cannot decide if I like that style bag. It's the "Gabby" some days I do and some I don't. I think I need to see it in person and I haven't found it in the stores yet.

Truth be told, there are very few prints I don't really like! I tend to opt for the tote bags or simialr styles like the Villager or Vera, although they're a little big for everyday. I know the tote style sits next to me in the wheelchair nicely even when carrying a book or magazine. This is the Caffe Latte print. I don't usually like black and brown, I prefer more color, but I really like this print.

The Fall catalogue has a new Canvas Collection but I didn't find any pictures on-line yet. The bages are an off-white quilted pattern with brown trim and handles, the brown part looks like it's suede. They're very nice and, of course I like them too!

The other part of the Vera Bradley Collection I love is the stationery. There's a bulleting board that is so pretty (although a little steep at $55 imho!) and a write-on/wipe-off board that would look cute on our fridge! And I definitely need an agenda/organizer! {As I'm posting all of this I can hear my husband in my head "what do you need with all this stuff?} It's so pretty! {lol}
