    Ok, you all wore me down!! I saw the new prints online this morning so I had to go to the little store downtown that I knew sold a lot of them, and I ended up getting:

    (got this in the Slate Blooms)

    http://www.verabradley.com/product/...r/Mocha+Rouge/pc/639/c/0/sc/706/p/1001054.uts
    (actually got this in the slate blooms...and I think I'll order another one or two online of sale colors...this is the style I love to carry...especially while traveling)

    Plus a few eyeglass and sunglass cases....

    Need to order:

    http://www.verabradley.com/product/...r/Mocha+Rouge/pc/639/c/0/sc/706/p/1001422.uts
    (probably get these in the Happy Snails...which is SO cute...love it)

    and OMG...I could get so carried away! I'm still not sure if I'd carry a "handbag" other than the hipster...but the luggage and totes are all sooo cute!

    I'm not sure whether to be mad at all of you, or kiss you! :giggle

    I feel a little weird about wearing a print bag with certain color clothes or prints. Do you change your bags with your outfits, or do you not worry about it?

    What a fun shopping spree! I love that hipster bag! Super cute! I don't think I'd be able to choose which pattern I liked best!

    I love that Mocha Rouge pattern. As soon as it goes on sale, I will add to my collection. I also love the slate blooms and have a bag in that print already. I just got a bunch of stuff in the Call me Coral pattern since they were on sale.

    I don't change my bag with my clothes. It has never bothered me if they don't match.

    It's a great little store in old town Temecula called Farmers Wife. She has a lot of really gorgeous things in there and I remembered seeing these last time I went in.

    Ok, so another question for you girls.

    I'm not always a matchy matchy kind of girl, but I did get the Hipster and the Weekender to match, because I'll mostly be using them to travel with, and I thought they'd look good matching. I got the cosmetic pieces to match too. Do you all typically get several things in one pattern, or do you just pick up a piece here and there, and not worry that things don't match?

    Oooh as to your last question. I've only two pieces so far, but I've gone different so far. I think I may match for any travel items and maybe for an eyeglasses/phone case and wallet? But otherwise I have several on my wish list and they are all different. Fun to play. ♥

    Lucky you! I have the hipster and I LOVE it! I want to pick up a few more pieces soon. I too have a cute little shop downtown with tons of VB. I could sit in there all day and drool!

    I like my stuff to match but sometimes my wallet or other accessory is different simply because I switch purses often and I am to cheap to buy the matching wallet etc.. every time.

    You should also sign up for their emails. They are always sending notices of certain patterns on sale.

    I tend to buy pieces here and there. :) Sometimes I will get a matching wallet or eyeglass case...etc. but in general like Amanda I switch so often I don't care if they don't match. :)

    If I were to be a travel bug...I would buy matching suitcases and things though.

    In general...like when I was at the outlet sale, people just mix and match. There are so many patterns and colors it's hard to just get one and stick with it. :)

    I had to go check out where their outlets are, and unfortunately there are none anywhere near me. :(

    Anyway...definitely some fun stuff, but I was seriously overwhelmed and it wasn't as if there was a huge selection either. I can't imagine going to their store or an outlet. I'd go crazy!

    Their outlet sale I went to here in IN is up where they make them and there are thousands and thousands! and thousands and thousands of people. It is definitely overwhelming if you don't know just what you want!

    I really like the style of these bags but I have never been a fan of the patterns they use. They don't come in solid colors do they? That hipster bag looks perfect for traveling.
