Just Got the Purple Punch Libby Purse Today!

So, it's awesome! You just have to see the pictures of this Purple Punch pattern purse I just got from Vera Bradley. It is a Libby purse (one of my favs) and the Purple Punch pattern has definitely just shot itself to the top of my absolute favorite patterns. The inside of the purse (as I will show you in the pics below) has a cool design to compliment the design on the outside.

So without further ado.. here are some pics of the purse, and make sure you check out your own Purple Punch purses here in the store.

Yeah, so there it is.  What do you think?  Makes you want one hah?  Yeah, I know the feeling.  Well this pattern just came out this week and it seems like every Vera Bradley fanatic wants this pattern, but since it's so knew there is still a good chance you can be the first on your block to on this design.

Vera Bradley Purple Punch Has Won the Popular Vote

Find Cheap Purple Punch Purses and Accessories Here:

Last week I wrote a post which had a poll in it for people to vote on their favorite new Vera Bradley pattern for Spring 2009 (which comes out in January).

As of today here are the results:

Cupcakes Pink:  7 votes

Cupcakes Green: 8 votes

Hope Garden: 139 votes

Purple Punch: 231

So it looks like the folks over at Vera Bradley did not exactly hit a homerun with their cupcake line.  But at least the name of the pattern is equally as bad.  I think we as Vera Bradley fans have just come to expect more from the company than those cupcake patterns.  In fact, I would actually rather eat a cupcake right now than have something in those designs.... but I digress.

Both Hope Garden and Purple Punch will be very popular when they come out, as the poll shows.  For a while Hope Garden was neck and neck with Purple Punch, until Purple Punch gave Hope Garden the knockout punch in the 3rd round.

Women will love this winning pattern because it is simple, not overdone, and has an element of elegance that has been lacking in the last few designs.  You will see both sophisticated people and little girls wearing this pattern with pride in 2009.

Although I do like the spring cheeryness of Hope Garden, I kind of figured that Purple Punch would win out in the end.  But hey, just because a pattern is popular does not mean you have to go along with the crowd.  I always suggest finding a pattern that suits you, that fits your personality and then run with it.  There are a few patterns I can think of, that whenever I see those patterns I think of the girls that love to wear them, so after time you can be closely associated with the patterns you wear.

I will often go back to some of the old retired patterns.  Most of the new Vera Bradley fans do not even recognize some of the retired patterns and they will think they are just knock-offs, but I know they are Vera Bradley and I know that some of those discontinued patterns are very rare and not many other women will be wearing them.

You can check out some retired Vera Bradley pattern here.

As always you will updated here as soon as the new patterns are available for purchase.  So far I have just heard that they are expected to come out in January, so any day now.

If you are just too impatient to wait that long you can at least appease your anxiety by checking out our Vera Bradley store here.  As an affiliate of eBay we offer a huge selection of Vera Bradley purses in our store section.  You are buying through a 3rd party in this case but often you can get amazing deals and save a fortune compared to buying Vera Bradley from the mall or other retail shops.

So anyway, Purple Punch is the clear winner and I'm sure it will rack up even more votes as the days go by.  If you have not had a chance to vote yet, check out the post on Vera Bradley Spring 2009 patterns.
