Depop is annoying

To start off I know I shouldn’t look at people’s profiles after I’ve sold them an item so that was my first mistake but oh well. I recently sold a petal pink bag that was damaged for what I thought to be a very fair price. I had a girl dm an offer with a lower price, and I accepted it because I thought it was fair! Well come to find out she’s reselling the item for quite a bit over what I was asking originally. Like why did you need to snatch up an item that was reasonably priced just to get the price down and then to turn around and resell it for an unfair price? Idk just thought I would share lol!

Staples Vera Bradley

I don’t know how I happened upon it, but I found these two variations on outlet prints on the Staples website.

What's your Vera Bradley unpopular opinions/hot takes?

Mine: I NEVER wash my bags, and I get disappointed when I receive one that has clearly been washed. Washing just seems to compromise the structural integrity of many styles. If the bag can't stand up on its own, it's ruined to me.

Also, Cargo Slings and Carry Alls? Meh. The Maggie? Too small. Don't even get me STARTED on the Molly!

I'm struggling. Can you help?

I'm looking for a little hipster to take on a trip to Europe. My wardrobe will be primarily black, blue, cream, and a few pops of color. I would like to find a Little Crossbody Hipster that will compliment my wardrobe. I'd prefer it be a more subtle pattern and more subdued colors. I've looked until my eyes are crossed. I've looked at the current offerings, as well as eBay and Posh. Do you have any patterns you'd suggest?

TIA

Removing Scents

I purchased this on Depop and it has a smoke smell to it 😭 has anyone been successful in removing this kind of smell? It’s not noticeable unless you put your face to it but still not too happy about it! I really love this bag and pattern.

What shape of bag is this?

I like the small size and that it has the tortoiseshell clips on the strap, most of the bags with a very similar shape to this are larger and have metal clips, I don’t see this shape/size often

My 1st Vera Bradley Purse!

I’ve been looking for a new everyday purse / tote bag because my current daily for work is a nylon medium crescent Baggu. I started carrying around more things for my everyday (notebooks, pens, makeup, medicine etc.) and my bag no longer keeps up. I thought about the everyday cloud Baggu but I think that one is a little too big for daily use.

I was at the beach this past weekend with my best friend, and she wanted to hit the outlets on the last day! So we made a list of stores we wanted to hit and planned out our route for the day! Two of my stops included Coach and Michael Kors, to look for this new bag. As we were walking, we passed a Vera Bradley outlet and she wanted to pop in and look at their new cat and dog prints. Needless to say, I saw a bag i INSTANTLY fell in love with and just had to get.

This bag is the Small Vera Tote in the outlet exclusive “Belle Rose Floral” and i’m OBSESSED with it! My fiance spotted the bag first because of the print —which i immediately loved, and then when i saw the SIX inside pockets, and all the space inside i knew this was going to be my new daily bag. Im now a Vera Bradley convert because growing up i never saw any prints that jumped out to me, but now that i have a bag style i love, and have seen some other cute prints, i cant stop scrolling the sites for my next purchase!

Staples and Vera Bradley

I didnt know Staples did a collaboration with Vera Bradley 🤩. There are more items online but this is what was at my store.

Check pockets!

Check all pockets before washing your VB ladies if you purchase from a reseller! Not the first time I find things . Lol

My collection 😩✨

I grew my collection so fast. I love all of the styles I have and I’m still hunting for more of my favorite patterns. Purple punch and Mod flora pink/Blue have my heart 💗.

I got a like new Cargo Sling on ShopGoodwill for $45

Y’all I won the shopgoodwill lottery.

I got a like new cargo sling in camo floral and 6 other VB items for $45 including shipping. A few are pretty beat up but I can’t argue with my total price.

I included the listing photos that lead me to believe this was a cargo sling.

I’m working on a guide to ShopGoodwill for collectors. I’ve gotten some great deals. What I don’t keep I sell at cost or lower depending on condition.
