Bradley Luggage – Interesting Origins Revealed …

Ever wondered how the delightful range of Vera Bradley luggage and purse got its start?
It was 1982… the founders, Patricia Miller and Barbara Bradley Baekgaard, were waiting for a flight in Atlanta. Looking around they realised something was lacking – there was just no feminine-looking luggage anywhere to be seen.
That realization was all it took to spark the creation of the Vera Bradley company (named after Barbara’s mother) which was soon manufacturing the wonderful quilted cotton Bradley luggage, purses and accessories which we have grown to know and love.
Located in Fort Wayne, Indiana, Vera Bradley is a remarkable success story. It’s luggage and purse products are an absolute pleasure to own, not to mention show off while waiting for your next flight.
Their growing popularity is highlighted in this video which starts with a few words from co-founders Barbara and Patricia. The video continues with a sampling of where Vera Bradley products have been spotted lately… and its not just at airports…

Purcahsed a big vera bradley bag a while back… wondering what pattern it is. I used to know… I’m pretty sure they don’t sell it anymore. This is a big tote bag, purchased for a great deal of money at Hallmark (who even makes them MORE expensive… ha!) I’m selling it… any idea how much to sell it for? It’s big (not purse size) but also not huge luggage size… could be used to a weekend getaway, etc. If anyone has a pricing range and also some info on the pattern, I’d GREATLY appreciate it. I imagine I can’t sell it for what it was sold (over $100) but any help, I’d love. I basically though want to know the BACKGROUND of this pattern.
Thanks.

The pattern is called Hope Toile. The bag is called the Miller Bag. The Miller Bag retails for $84 normally priced. The pattern Hope Toile was retired last summer. Vera Bradley clearenced all thier Hope Toile things out for 40% off the original price. However you can no longer buy them so it is worth more than the original $84. People looking to buy Vera Bradley’s that are used look for ones that still have the tangs (I doub’t yours still does) and look for ones with no damage or wear. I would probably ask anywhere from $100-$125 for the bag if I were selling it based on the criteria I listed.

I need some ideas of presents to give my parents for Christmas. My dad is into fishing, playing poker, and being outdoors. My mom likes to work out and is pretty feminine. She likes girl things. I thought about getting her a Briton bracelet or a new Vera Bradley luggage bag so I am more concerned about finding a present for my Dad but suggestions for both are welcome! Thank you! 10 points to the best answer ![]()
Nice digital photo frame for both of them together (because it is kind of expensive) figure out where it would look nice to make sure you get a frame that would look good where they would most likely put it up.
Can a large vera bradley duffel be used as a carry on?

I’m flying on conteinental airlines next week, and I was just wondering if my large vera bradley duffel would fit the requirements for carry on luggage. Is it too big?
You should check the continental airline’s carry on measurement. And as long as you can fit the duffle back into that dimention (meaning, even if your bag itself is bigger, but you don’t pack it full and things in there are flexible), it would be fine.

I’m just looking for my x-mas gift ![]()
Im 17 sooo it can’t be tooo pricey of a place

I’m not sure about Louis Vuitton, but you can find lower priced Vera Bradley luggage on a site called eBags. They sell "retired prints" of Vera Bradley so they are closeout and clearance prices. If the luggage is too expensive, why not look at something like a Vera Bradley cosmetic bag? It’s still travel related but less than your average rolling suitcase. http://www.ebags.com/vera_bradley/brand_search/index.cfm?brandid=10548
Unfortunately, if you’re looking for cheap VB, it’ll be hard to come by. VB isn’t cheap by any means and if you find it that way, it’s probably either damaged or fake.
