I Want to Go to London

Good morning everyone! I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. London fashion week is coming up and it's made my desire to go even stronger. London street style is so chic I can't even handle it.

Lily Melrose=one of my favorite fashion bloggers.

I'd make Duck & Waffle one of my first food stops. I'd go during brunch and get either the "Full Elvis" Waffle (pb&j, bananas, brûlée, chantilly cream, all the trimmings) or the English Cherries Waffle (cherry & yoghurt ice cream, white chocolate crumble).

And I'd probably come back with some stupid expensive yet oh so classy umbrella from London Undercover (I love this picture).

So if you live in London, or anywhere in the UK really, I'm coming to visit asap. 

Where have you been dying to travel to lately? 

Remember Vera Bradley?

Was Vera Bradley just popular in the south? I remember in middle and high school everyone had a Vera Bradley something. Those $34 lunch bags were pretty damn popular.

I'm sure you all remember these pricey paisley print cotton quilted bags. It was like everyone at the same time lost interest in Vera Bradley. I'm not a huge fan of the designs, but I have a large Vera Bradley tote bag that I use as an overnight bag, and that thing has lasted at least 6 or 7 years. 

Today I saw an ad in Seventeen and it sparked my curiosity a little bit (effective advertising). 

I don't understand the "I am" part, but it caught my attention for some reason. Anyway, I checked out the site out of curiosity. The printed quilted cotton bags are still available, the brand has branched out and has some solid color leather bags available as well. They are expensive, but it might be time to revisit Vera Bradley. Here are some Vera Bradley items available right now that I wouldn't mind owning. 

1. Amy Quilted Leather Backpack in Blush

2. Soft Fringe Scarf in Emerald Geometric - the scarves are definitely worth checking out. 

3. Quilted Emma Mini Crossbody in Magenta

4. Teardrop Earrings in Marrakesh - I don't think I'd like this pattern on a bag but I adore it on these earrings. 

5. XL Throw Blanket in Sierra Tribal

6. Kelsey Polarized Sunglasses in Blue Bayou

7. Bubble Umbrella in Pixie Bloom

8. Harper Clutch in Red Tango

9. Pearl Tassel Necklace

 So there you have it, Vera Bradley might become relevant again, we'll see! 

Were you ever a Vera Bradley fan? What do you think of the new and improved brand?
