take vera bradley with you this summer :: review and giveaway

Posted on July 7, 2013July 8, 2013 by Shannon

If you know me in real life, or you have been following me “virtually”, you will know that I am a HUGE fan of Vera Bradley. Huge! When I had the chance to share some Vera Bradley goodies with you all, I was pumped! And guess what, you have a chance to win what I received too! But let me tell you a little about these items first before you head down and enter.

First, it’s summer, and everyone is outside during the summer! A few years back I purchased my first Vera Bradley beach towel. I have since received more and for this post I have one of their newest colors with you. To be honest, it’s now my FAVORITE in my house! The colors are very vibrant – there is no losing your towel on the beach this year!

Vera Bradley Beach Towel
Next, I have their fabulous Sarong. I never knew I needed one until I received this one. It can do SO much! LOL! Luckily, when you order one of these, it comes with a little tag that shows everything this unique item can do! I have been using it as a coverup over my suit every time I have gone out. I tried tying it different ways too…and was fairly successful. 🙂 Here is some information from Vera Bradley on it…

  • Light cotton fabric
  • Includes a fashion hangtag that outlines six ways to wear it
  • Lightweight enough to double as a scarf
  • Subtle variations are characteristic of this handcrafted product and make each piece unique

Vera Bradley Sarong
Last, I have the Small Mesh Tote. If you have kids or if you don’t, everyone needs one of these. It’s totally the perfect size. I have been putting snacks in our bag for on the go summer fun! There is plenty of room even thought it’s “small”.

Vera Bradley Small Mesh Tote
All of these items mentioned above come in many fabulous colors – you will be SURE to find what you are looking for! Hop on over to Vera Bradley, and you will love what you see. If you get there and place an order before July 8, 2013 of $100 or more, you will get a beach towel for free!

Now, talk to me! What do you NEED from Vera Bradley?

small mesh tote :: $39 retail, online you can get for $19.50
sarong :: $29 online, retails for $58!
beach towel :: starting at $17.50 online, normally $35!
