I am so excited to do my first ever “Styled Three Ways” post along with two other blogger gals, Molly from Hey There Sunshine and Elizabeth from Mz Savvy Style. We are showing how 3 different age brackets, 20’s, 30’s (me!), and 40’s, can all wear and style the same Vera Bradley bag even in different stages of life.
This leather cross body handbag, “The Meredith” in Tango Red, $198. Since a well made handbag is an investment, it’s great to know that a classic style like this one can evolve as your needs and style change. Just shake it up with your clothing and accessories at any given point in your life! This bag is also available in classic colors of camel and black.
Here’s a look at how I styled The Meredith…
Handbag : Vera Bradley c/o || Camo Jacket : Mine old, similar style here || Denim Skirt : Urban Outfitters || Boots : Charles by Charles David || Jewelry : Vera Bradley Tassel Bracelets & Bar Bracelet (c/o) || Watch : Jord Wood Watches || Lipstick : L’Oreal “Mezmerizing Merlot”
Being a mom of three, I am always going for bags that are big enough to carry the necessities for kid and makeup emergencies. You know, a small pack of wipes, bandaids, multiple lip glosses, wallet, and iPhone! Typically cross body bags are too small for me, but this one is just roomy enough without being overly large. And it holds everything I need to be prepared and look cute at the same time!!
Even though I am so far from being into hunting or living in the country, I love love wearing a camo jacket but making it feminine by pairing it with a skirt and heeled booties! And of course adding a deep red lip to top it all off.
Be sure to head on over to Molly and Elizabeth’s blogs to see other ways to style this bag! Plus go check out the beautiful and chic leather bag styles Vera Bradley has to offer.
