Topic: Vera Bradley
Seriously...
No Joke...
When I first moved back East after living in Nevada(Reno/Vegas) for five years I'll never forget walking into a Hallmark shop in Atlanta and seeing a display similar to this one.
Here's how the conversation went down.
Dee: What are all these grandma looking purses/totes????
Sales person: "Why Vera Bradley!" Haven't you heard of her?
Dee: Ummm..No! It's like I've been living under a rock either. I've been clubbing it in Vegas and hanging out in Laguna on weekends(LOL) and I've never seen or heard about these. Must be a Southern thing?
Sales person: Yes! They are the hot thing here on the East Coast and in the South. Jump on board.
Dee: Sorry.. a little to maw mawish for me.
Is it just me? I'm sorry..
I'm a Southern Belle but this just DOES not fit my taste at all. For goodness sake - not even my Mom likes them(and someone gave her one as a gift).
I'm not one of those people who jumps on a trend/fad unless I actually like it. Know what I mean?? People here in the CLT love these purses. Makes me cringe to be honest.
Thoughts..comments??
As for the weekend -- we laid low and actually STAYED.IN.TOWN. Wowzers! Nice!! Happy Monday!
