So much trend-spotting, planning and observation spurred our new collection, we thought you might enjoy a backstage pass to our process. This week, we’ll be walking color by color through Summer 2012 with Liz on Location so you can see the full story behind each pattern and, who knows, maybe even find a new favorite!
(p.s. If you know us, by now, you know we love a great giveaway during launch … wink, wink.)

VERY IMPORTANT.. we all rave about the colors, a big part of what I LOVE about Vera Bradley is the beautiful QUILTING on the bags. My family calls them my
quilty bags. Granted Vera choses the right colors and patterns that show of the quilting but lets not forget.. that quilting is gorgeous.
I absolutely love this collection! The colors are so vibrant and perfect for summer! Can’t wait to order a new diaper bag!
I love give aways too! And I hear a new bag calling my name in a new summer color!
Vera Bradley you did it again! Your brightly colored summer collection is amazing!
They are all so pretty, it will be hard to buy just one!
Well, they were all just so VERA! But I think the Lime’s Up would be my favorite in the backpack.
