Would you like to get a sneak peek at the Spring 2009 Vera Bradley collection (waaaay before anyone else)? I would!
QUICK UPDATE: The Vera Bradley Spring 2009 collection is now available! Make sure you check it out before you go - you won't be disappointed!
Now back to the original post...
However, I can think of only one problem - there's several months (and several feet of snow) to go before I can actually purchase any of them! However, you will have a chance to get a sneak peek in the very near future, and it's all for a very good cause. Keep reading to find out more...
As many of you probably know, October is National Breast Cancer Awareness month. To kick off this special month, the Vera Bradley company is planning its fifth annual Tickled Pink event. This fundraising event will be held the evening of Friday, October 3, 2008, at the company's distribution center in Roanoke, Indiana. Tickets for the event are available for $75.00 per person. Details regarding purchasing tickets can be found here.
There is more than one reason to attend Tickled Pink. First and foremost, all proceeds benefit the Vera Bradley Foundation for Breast Cancer. Second, it promises to be a fun girls' night out, complete with hors d'ouevres, cocktails, an exclusive Vera Bradley gift for anyone attending (hmmm, I wonder what it could be!), and as promised, a sneak peek at the Spring 2009 Vera Bradley fabrics, including Hope Garden, the 2009 Breast Cancer Awareness pattern. There will also be a special performance by popular Australian singer/songwriter Delta Goodrem.
Do you know what other big Vera Bradley event is taking place on October 3rd? That's right, Tickled Pink is the same weekend as the Outlet Sale! Make a day (and night) of it by attending both! Just make sure to get your tickets as soon as possible for the fundraiser, because I hear that they sell out quickly!

I can’t decide which one is my favorite – Purple Punch, maybe. But really, I love ‘em all!
To Whom It May Concern–
I am trying to find out the dates of the fall event in Fort Wayne, Indiana this year (2009).
We are from South Charleston, Ohio.
If you could e-mail this to me, I would greatly appreeciate it.

Hi Doris,
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but there will not be a fall sale this year
If I had to guess why, I think it’s due to the fact that they just opened their first outlet store – it’s located in Illinois. There will be a spring sale. It’s scheduled for April 28-May 1, 2010, and will be held at the Allen County War Memorial Coliseum in Fort Wayne, Indiana.
