In this thread, state a fact about yourself and Vera, then pass it along to the next poster. My fact: I conducted the first ever 'SVF' back in 2007 on Livejournal. Then, it was called the Secret Santa exchange! I wrote the original SVF document that I passed along to another user, who brought the idea to FB!  |

Chelsea that is awesome you started the SVF!!! I love SVF and want to be more involved I'm Trichelle and I have only been collecting Vera since finals week before Graduation. (Last week of April, Graduation was 5/2) I now own over 40 pieces! in less than 2 months! But I have never paid full price for a Vera! I always find the deals! |

I started collecting Vera in the Fall of 2006 but strayed after less than a year. I just got back into it in January! Oh, and my first bag was a New Hope Toggle Tote. I sold it after I "fell out of love" with VB, and bought it back this spring  |

My next fact... I used to be obsessive about matching. EVERYTHING had to match. Now, I'm carefree and nothing matches... My new travel set is made up of cambridge, bermuda blue, botanica, and more! Random patterns...

My fact: I was not a purse kinda gal. I am such a tomboy! However, thanks to VB, I am now all about them (as long as they are VB of course). I live in a small town and when I see someone carring a VB I just have to ask them about it. I am obsessed! ;o)

I got my first piece of Vera was a JB Hipster (old style) when I was in HS. For graduation I received a Bermuda Blue Travel Cosmetic and a Bermuda Pink Large Cosmetic from family members I never see. Soon after, my collection grew by leaps and bounds. I no longer have those first three pieces.

Fact: I didn't like Vera Bradley at all until I saw Java Blue. That was love at first sight. Now it's the only thing I carry.

This thread is fun!
My next vera fact: I have never carried a bag smaller than the bucket tote. I am a large bag girl! I am willing to try out a smaller bag now, but I carry way too much!

My fact is that I prefer Bali Gold and Puccini together than to see Bali Gold paired with Raspberry Fizz.

My fact: I had never heard of Vera Bradley... a friend was getting ready to order through her retailer and asked me if I wanted to order as well... When she told me that part of the proceeds of some of the patterns went to breast cancer research, I KNEW I had to get one since my Mom is a breast cancer survivor. My first bag was a Petal Pink little toggle tote and my daughter got the matching PP bitty betsy. I still have my LTT even though it has been thoroughly loved. |
