A spring giveaway . . .
I’ve been a fan of Vera Bradley’s iconic styles since I was in high school. I carried coordinating pieces from my quilted fabric collection on every single vacation–it was always an essential. Fast forward a few years, and I’m still toting their classic styles. Now that I’m a mom, these leather crossbody bags + purses are some of my favorites for date night out and outings off-duty.
As part of today’s post, we’ve teamed up to help refresh your look for spring. Vera Bradley sent this beautiful magenta crossbody for ONE OF YOU, and I’m filling it with $150 worth of beauty products I’ve recently tried and love. It’s the perfect way to welcome the warmer weather.
More VB favorites:
