Two weeks ago, I received an invitation to attend Tiara Galleries' Vera Bradley Fall Collection Launch Party! Of course, they used pretty VB stationery for the invitations. What's even more exciting about this particular launch party is that the daughter of Vera Bradley and Brand Ambassador, Joan Bradley Reedy, will be a guest at this Rockville store, and I'll have the chance to meet her! What's even more exciting is that I can finally make it to a launch party! I've racked up so many days of leave; I have no summer classes getting in the way; and, the event is happening just two days after my birthday! Hopefully, I'll get some birthday money to spend *wink*. They've asked guests to bring our oldest VB patterned item.
