Vera bradley Coupon Code: Behind The Scenes: Summer Photo Shoot

With the release of our Summer new arrivals, we’ve been daydreaming of our Summer photo shoot in Puerto Rico. While everyone was snuggled up in their throw blankets in December, our creative team traded their cozy socks in for flip flops and escaped to the sandy beaches of San Juan, Puerto Rico to photograph our Summer 2017 product. Senior Art Director, Heidi, gave us a close-up of their photo shoot experience.

WHERE TO STAY

“El Conquistador had everything we needed for our stay — beautiful scenery, amazing food and plenty of outdoor activities!” – Heidi

Our team stayed at El Conquistador, a Waldorf Astoria resort. Although they spent a lot of time hard at work, everyone raved about the experience. It would be nearly impossible to be bored at this resort between the countless pools, water park, tours, outdoor activities and events. If you find yourself in Puerto Rico, we highly recommend it.

WHERE TO SHOP

“There are so many little shops all through the streets of Old San Juan. It’s hard to pick just one!” – Heidi

Between shopping in the historic streets of Old San Juan and the countless shops found right at your resort, you’ll have no trouble finding souvenirs for everyone on your list. El Conquistador has its own clothing boutique, spa, convenience stores and souvenir shops, so you truly would never have to leave the resort.

WHERE TO EAT

Discovering hidden gems is one of our favorite things about travel. While circling the city, we discovered La Bombonera bakery, a local favorite in the historic district of Old San Juan. If you make the stop, quesitos and a café con leche are an absolute must.

“La Bombonera is the best! It’s an old style café that is perfectly maintained. The quesitos are to die for!” – Heidi

If you want the full Puerto Rican culinary experience, try going on a food tour. The Old San Juan Food Tour will take you around the city where you’ll sample local eateries and learn the city’s history as you go.

WHERE TO PLAY

Whether lounging under an umbrella or snorkeling off the shore is your idea of fun, Palomino Island is perfect for a day-trip. Just a short boat ride from the shore, this picturesque island is great for sunset cruises, water sports and just soaking up the sun.

“Palomino Island was the best find! It has everything from horseback riding on the beach and outdoor games to a cocktail bar.” – Heidi

Vera Bradley Coupon Code: How-to: Throw the Best Bachelor Finale Party

As women, we tend to pride ourselves on having class and good taste. Face it; any time we can mention our love of West Elm or fancy French cuisine, we drop it into the conversation. The thing we don’t eagerly bring up as often — our undying love of dramatic reality TV shows. It’s true — these are the shows we love to hate, the non-debatable favorite being The Bachelor. Between Chris Harrison’s dad jokes, the inevitable drama between the girls and the suspense of who will get the final rose, we can’t get enough. It should come as no surprise that our office holds a Bachelor bracket every season. Tuesday mornings following each episode, Vera Bradley Bachelor Nation huddles to discuss the latest episode.

“Corinne said WHAT?”

“Why did he send her home? She was the best!”

“Who is Whitney? She doesn’t even go here!”

Sound like your squad? We feel you. To end the season, we’re throwing a viewing party to watch The Final Rose together. Not to brag, but we’re kind of pros when it comes to throwing Bachelor viewing parties — and we want you to be able to do the same. First things first, put on your go-to Bachelor Mondays outfit. Next, grab your notebook and jot down these three steps to throwing the best Bachelor finale party.

1. PLAN THE MENU

Hosting parties can often seem daunting, especially when you consider the time and effort that goes into planning and creating the menu. Luckily, The Bachelor airs late enough in the evening, that you’ll just need to cover light snacks. For our party, we made popcorn and picked up some cupcakes from a local bakery. Everyone knows nothing pairs better with Bachelor Mondays than a glass of wine. Get a few bottles of your squad’s favorite sparkling rosé and garnish it with a rose petal for extra Instagram-worthy pictures.

2. SELECT THE GAMES

No viewing party is complete without a fun game or two. Whether placing bets on the winner or playing a workout game (10 jumping jacks when they mention the final rose) is your style, there are countless Bachelor-themed games out there. This year we created Bachelor bingo cards so you can mark everything off from Nick walking alone with an inner monologue playing (because that is BOUND to happen) to the girls questioning who is in it for the right reasons. Love this idea? You can download our three versions for free!

3. CREATE THE SETTING

The one thing that differentiates great parties from good parties is the ambience. If you spend a little extra time setting up your viewing space, your guests are bound to be snapping pictures all night, making it truly a party to remember. Little details like a vase of roses (use the extra rose petals as markers for your bingo cards) or a beautiful tray for your food make a huge difference. Bonus points if you can whip up a “will you accept this rosé” sign.

Vera Bradley Coupon Code: Scent Destination: Cotton Flower

Aromas can invoke nostalgia, create atmospheres and cause all kinds of feelings the second a scent hits you. We now carry four fragrances–each one owning unique characteristics for every personality and destination. Let each scent take you on a trip – the only decision you’ll have to make is where you want to go.

Sometimes the best vacation is a staycation. Relaxing at home and exploring hidden gems with your girlfriends is exactly what you need to reset after a crazy time at work. Our favorite scent for relaxation is the light and airy Cotton Flower. This warm and fresh scent has us planning out days of breakfast in bed, trying new restaurants and kicking back with a few cocktails with the girls. If you want to take your staycation to the next level, you can always do an airbnb at a cool downtown loft or stay at a B&B for a change of scenery. Make an event of the weekend with fun party décor and invites to get your squad excited for some much needed time off. To really enjoy your time away from work, these styles should do the trick.

Vera Bradley Coupon Code: Scent Destination: Vanilla Sea Salt

Aromas can invoke nostalgia, create atmospheres and cause all kinds of feelings the second a scent hits you. We now carry four fragrances–each one owning unique characteristics for every personality and destination. Let each scent take you on a trip – the only decision you’ll have to make is where you want to go.

If you dream of toes in the sand and salt in your hair, Vanilla Sea Salt is just the thing you need for your next beach vacay. A mixture of creamy vanilla and salty sea air, this light fragrance is perfect for afternoon boat rides, brunch with the girls and endless hours lounging on the beach. Before you get your sun-kissed skin, you’ll need to pack a few must-haves for the resort.

Vera Bradley Coupon Code: Sneak Peek: Rain Forest

March is finally here, so we’re starting to see the sunny light at the end of the wintery tunnel. Between spring break and planning our summer getaway, we’ve been carefully crafting a summer wish list to complete our closets. You’ll need to bust out your list again because our newest pattern is a must this season. Arriving online and in-stores Thursday, March 9, Rain Forest is the tribal-inspired pattern you’ll be pairing with your favorite denim and go-to sandals all summer. With multi-cultural influences, this Afro-Cuban geometric pattern is subtle, yet striking in cream, lime, aqua, blue and dark brown.

If you’re less of a beach lounger and more of an explorer, Rain Forest is for you. We like pairing it with summer basics — a chambray shirtdress, lace-up espadrilles and a straw fedora for the days when you just can NOT with your hair. Minimal, but bold accessories help complement and emphasize the geometric nature of the pattern. Your trusty leather watch, favorite sunnies and fringe earrings will top off your outfit. Torn on which bag to carry? We love the Hadley East West Tote. The micro-quilting has a level of sophistication while the ties on the straps add femininity.

Vera Bradley Coupon Code: Sneak Peek: Rumba

With that spring break girl’s trip around the corner, we can’t help but have summer on the mind. Bright hues, breezy fabrics and bold accessories make up our warm-weather wardrobes and our newest pattern will fit right in. Arriving online and in-stores Thursday, March 9, Rumba is the summer pattern you’ll be wearing on repeat. A mix of coral, orange, aqua, lime and yellow on a red ground, the vibrant colors are inspired by the tropical climate of Cuba. This pattern is perfect for both color-lovers and travelers.

With so many colors in Rumba, you may be torn on what to pair with this pattern. Pair a red off the shoulder top with breezy white shorts, then play up the hot hues with fun color pops — a patterned ascot, turquoise stud earrings and the cutest pom-pom sandals. Our Hipster is essential for exploring new cities or weekends on the go and the RFID Georgia Wallet coordinates perfectly (while keeping your personal info safe).
