Vera Bradley Carnaby Patterns on Sale Already!

The new Vera Bradley 2009 fall patterns are out and the all new Carnaby pattern is making quite a splash in the fashion world already.  Of course, we here a BuyThatPurse.com had the pictures of the patterns out before anyone else did, but we also wanted to report some pretty sweet deals on ebay right now for these bags as well.  You can buy them from Vera's website as well, but often you can get even bigger discounts on ebay and add a few auctions together to save even more money.

The Carnaby colors are wonderful for fall.  I got an email from Vera Bradley today saying the pattern is a London 60's style, but what do I know about London?!   It is supposedly named after a street in London, but I will just take their word for it.  All I know is that the Vera Bradley Carnaby is a great pattern with it's berry colors and rich floral design and I know it will be a popular pattern for a long time to come as well.  Anyway, check out some great deals going on right now for Carnaby purses and handbags.  And if you can't find what you are looking for you can always use our search box at the top right corner of this page.

Vera Bradley Diaper Bags and Baby Bags

Vera Bradley Diaper Bags were a wonderful addition to the Vera collection of purses, handbags, and totes.  These diaper bags are perfect for more than just a new baby in the family, but they are ideal for that new mother.  Some of those baby bags are just so cumbersome and ugly, it makes motherhood look like a drudgery rather than a joyous blessing.

So why not pick out a fun, whimsical pattern that expresses yourself as a mother.  These bags are big enough to hold everything you will need for your baby or babies.  You can carry those diapers, toys, wipes, and any other accessories to make sure your baby boy or girl is happy and pampered.

The size of the bags are 16" wide and 12" high, giving you 6" of depth as well.   Some of these bags come with a changing pad as well so make sure of this before you buy, if you want one.

The Vera Bradley diaper bags are also nice and comfy to carry.  Because they are made of fine quality cloth you will not have a hard strap digging into your shoulders when you carry this bag.  Instead you will just get a bunchy of jealous looks from your neighbors and friends as they see a beautiful and vibrant pattern on a great baby bag.

Feel free to check out some of the diaper bags that are on ebay right now in the listings below.

Vera Bradley Knockoffs: Why Even Bother?

There have been a lot of Vera Bradley knockoffs floating around lately.  Even the big box stores are selling these horrendous bags.  Oops, did I say horrendous.... I meant hideous!

Ok, so maybe some of you have a fake Vera Bradley handbag and you love it.  I am happy for you.. Really.  But why bother getting a fake when you can get the real thing for cheap from sites like this one.  And then you know you are getting a bag that is built of the finest quality, it will not fade in two months from 1 washing, and your bag won't stand out like a sore thumb for being a fraud.

Hmm, perhaps I am a bit too hostile on the issue, but for those of us who love Vera Bradley there is just no substitute.  If you want to look like you have a Vera Bradley purse, get a Vera Bradley purse.  The fakes are pretty easy to spot after all.  I am not even going to teach you how to spot the fakes.  Just get to know the real patterns and you will be able to spot a phony bag from a mile away.

I have noticed that even anchor stores in the mall are carrying these bags.  They do not call them VB or anything, but it is obvious that they are trying to look like the Fort Wayne Indiana company's bags.  They try, but they indeed fail.

Have you seen the fakes at your local mall?  What do you think?  Maybe you have some Vera Bradley knockoffs and you love them.  Leave us a comment and let us know why you love your phony bag.  We promise to be nice.  After all, if you are happy with it, it doesn't matter if it is not authentic or genuine.

And if you are one of those crazy people who has to have the real thing and actually wants your handbag to last for the rest of your life and be the epitome of chic, you can let us know that in the comment boxes below as well.

Vera Bradley Wallets: Which One to Choose…

There are so many kinds of Vera Bradley wallets out there these days.  And with every year that goes by Vera comes out with a few more wallet styles giving us yet one more reason to spend money on something that holds our money.  Kind of ironic isn't it?

When deciding on what wallet you will be using you need to consider several factors: Will this by your every day wallet? Do you want to be able to also use this wallet as a convenient purses? And maybe you even need to ask yourself if you have too many credit cards to try to cram into those sweet little wallets.

Well when thinking about some of the new wallet styles that have come out for this year, I wanted to write a post about all of those wallets and ask all of you which wallet style is the best of all time!  I know there are a lot to choose from so I put an Amazon astore page on here so you can check out some of the different kinds of wallets that have been passed down through the ages.. or at least the last few years.

Leave us a comment saying which Vera Bradley wallet you already own, or which one you use the most, or which one you really really want to own.

So which one is it going to be?  The zip around wallet, the mini zip around wallet, the kisslock coin purse, the wristlet, the clutch wallet, the pocket wallet, or the taxi wallet.  Vera Bradley has almost as many wallet designs as they have for purses and handbags.  Check out some of the style below:

If you want you can order any of these wallets too. Just click on the ones you want and purchase them safely through Amazon.

And don't forget to enter the contest to win the Free Hope Garden Tote, if you have not already. And go tell some friends about us too.

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.
