  • Those are so hids. They look like my grandma's sewing bag from the early 80s.

  • I had a CW, my age, that carried them. :/  I don't get it.
  • SIL loves them. Another reason on the long list of why I have nothing in common with her
  • I don't like them either, even if they are compared to the prints my diaper bag company offers.

    My MIL is a big fan of VB, which says a lot right there. Heh.

    I think I would get it more if I saw older ladies carrying them - but it's kind of all over the place.  not to mention they aren't exactly cheap, I gasped when I saw a smaller bag with a $65 price tag.  but you'd have to pay me to carry one, not the other way around.

  • haha my friends and I have had this conversation so many times.  I was shocked when I went back home to Boston once and saw them EVERYWHERE at the airport. It started off as an east coast preppy thing I think. I dont get it but somehow it caught on and if you live on the eastern seaboard, it's like you cant leave home without your Ralph Lauren polo and your VB bag. 
  • They look like the bags all the old ladies wore when I worked at Jo-Ann's

  • Those bags scream, "I am from the South and I have no taste". 
  • Yuck! I always cringed on the bump when girls AWed their "awesome" Vera Bradley diaper bags.
  • They are HUGE back east like pp said; Boston, Philadelphia, Virginia.
    My young cousins sent me one for my birthday.
  • i wouldn't wipe my ass with a vera bradley bag.

  • Hm, I guess my mom was fashionable in the 90's.
  • Well with the name like "Vera" it DOES scream Golden Girls......
