Vera Bradley Meet and Greet Recap
If you’re a regular reader around here then you know I recently had a meet and greet event at the Vera Bradley store on Long Island, NY. It was such a fun event and it was wonderful getting to meet some of you that day! I can’t thank you all enough for making it out to the event and hanging out with me for the day while we shopped! It was such a wonderful experience and I wanted to share it with all of you because I know many of you are not in the New York area.
Oh by the way…there might be picture overload but there were too many to not share!
The Vera Bradley brand has always been on my radar, although I have to admit, I never owned a Vera Bradley bag before. I’ve always gravitated towards the accessories like coffee tumblers and notebooks because of their bright fun patterns. Now that Vera Bradley has a leather collection that’s all changed though! I can’t say enough how much I am liking their new fall collection of leather and suede bags. The colors and patterns are a style I tend to go for.
I just couldn’t wait until the fall to start using this Carson Shoulder Bag. It feels like fall in New York already so close enough right?
Even though it’s been years since I’ve been in school, I’m liking the back to school things too!
My Vera Bradley collection may be growing now! I still can’t wait to travel to Paris and Brussels in a few weeks with my carry on luggage. What to know how I manage to pack everything into a carry on? Read this post here.
Meeting everyone for the day was wonderful! Sometimes bloggers get stuck behind our computers all day and don’t really get to interact with our readers in person and it was nice being able to step away from the computer.
Thank you so much to Vera Bradley and the staff at the Walt Whitman Mall for having me! A big thank you too to everyone who came and a huge thank you to all my readers because without you this event wouldn’t have been possible!
Hope to see you at the next one!

Love this brand! So colorful and happy! Looks like a fun event.
The patterns and colors are really cheerful!
I wish I was there! It looks and sounds like the best thing, and I missed it. I am in Germany so a little bit too far away!
Ha you’re right, Germany is just a bit too far!
Wow, looks like it was a great event. I love the Vera Bradley brand and I’m loving that Carson shoulder bag!
Love the colorful patters!! Lovely event with a lot energy and fun
It really was a lovely fun event!
Whoa, this looks like so much fun! I’d love to attend something like this but I live in London! Anyway, those cupcakes look delicious and it looks like everyone had lots of fun.
OMG yes! Everything here is so cute! Need it all.
What a fun event! Love that Carson bag — especially that color! I always love the patterns, but the purples are fab!
What a great idea, a shopping party! These bags are stunning! My kind of thing, cool textures and small bags!
This looks like such a fun event! I have a few friends who love VB who would really like an event like this.
I love Vera Bradley bags! I have a couple and want more to add to my collection. This sounds like an amazing event.
Ugh, so jealous! I love Vera Bradley! I have several bags and wallets. Plus both of my daugthers have their bags and wallets! What a fun event!
I’ve never shopped Vera Bradley before, I’m curious if they have any locations in Canada. The Carson shoulder bag looks perfect for fall.
I have never shopped at Vera Bradley before! I definitely will check it out next time I’m in Chicago. That’s awesome you got to host a met and greet there!
She always has very colorful prints and patterns. I think the floral luggage is very cute!
I love in person influencer events. It’s my favorite part of being an influencer. It’s the meeting new people part that I love.
I always browse the website because I like the fun prints. Never bought anything though because I’m not sure if a printed bag would go with anything I own. But that might now change after seeing the new leather and suede collection.
This place looks nice and has some cute bags.
The luggage is pretty awesome! I am loving everything in that store. It’s awesome that you got the chance to do this meet and greet!
I am so in love with the color palette for these products. But especially the luggage. I think it is amazing that you got to visit the store and do a meet-n-greet!
OMG. Me needs Bags and more bags right now. I love all of them.
What a gorgeous bag! It’s so different than what I’ve known from them…but I LOVE it!!!!

I have always loved the Vera Bradley line! I have one of the diaper bags and it is amazing. They always have such fun prints
That looks like a lot of fun. I would love to schedule something like that with my local Vera Bradley. How do you get started with something like this?
What a fun event! That Burgundy handbag in the first photos is gorgeous, perfect for Fall. I’ve not seen Vera Bradley product around here but I’ll have to try to check it out.
What a cool event and love the bags! Enjoyed looking through all the photos.
OHH this is the first time I’m learning of Vera Bradley, but I’m loving it. Such beautiful use of patterns and colour. I’ll keep and eye out and be sure to visit when I’m near by.
I love all the bags and I would love just one any one. That looked like a great event and I hope I don’t miss the next one.
Oh wow your black top is beyond adorable! It’s so simple yet really bold along with your jeans! The bags are definitely heaven too!
I love the ad campaign and that floral navy suitcase is so gorgeous!!! Looks like you had fun! 🙂
I love Vera Bradley bags. They are so unique, colorful and instantly recognizable. I must have that luggage! It would be so easy to spot on a bag carousel. What a fun event!
Wow, I didn’t know that they now have a leather assortment. I do love their smaller pieces like you say, tumblers, notebooks etc. But I don’t own any of the bags. The leather has definitely gotten me curious however.

What a fun event. I’m so glad the brand has come out with a leather edition. I wasn’t a huge fan of all the prints. I do love it in the luggage, tumblers, notebooks and large totes, but otherwise found it too overwhelming. The leather collection is right up my style alley.
Drooling over that hard back luggage! And the new leather line!
I am so envious! Wish I could go to a Vera Bradley event! Thanks for sharing your experience. Vera Bradley has come a long way! Her stylish and chic backpacks will surely be a hit with the millennials and college students!
It looks like a nice event. I like the look of the luggage. That would feel sassy to be wheeling around in an airport.
Wow, Looked like a great, fun unique event. Love all the pictures!
it seemed you had a lot of fun at the event ! I never owned a bag from Vera Bradley but from what I see, I might give it a try this fall, I love leather and suede bags 🙂 great post,

What a great experience. We love Vera Bradley products and I really want to get a new luggage set (hello holiday list!).
What a fun time you had. Look at all those fun prints! I would be in heaven!
It was a really fun time
This looks like a fun event! Glad that you got an opportunity to visit there! Their bag collection looks just amazing!
Looks like you all had a wonderful time. I love the brand and so does my 15 year old. Something about the colors that draw me in. Also nice spread, I want a cupcake.
The colors are really fun!
