Fall 2008 Vera Bradley Fabrics

I just finished reading a post on Vera Bradley's Facebook page regarding the new fall 2008 fabrics.  Ok, so you may be thinking to yourself...

"We just wrapped up Memorial Day weekend, the kickoff to summertime activities.  The last thing I want to hear about is what's coming out this fall!"

I initially thought that too, but I'm just not good at keeping things to myself.  So what the heck, here's what you can expect to see from the Vera Bradley company in just a few more months...

Night Owl - This is a blue and black pattern.  I don't know much more, but I'm guessing by its name that it will be dark tones.

Puccini - This Fall 2008 Vera Bradley fabric is brown and dark orange.   Not exactly my taste in colors, but we'll have to see...

Caffe Latte - If this one lives up to its name, I'm going to love it!  From what I hear, it has shades of browns, creams and tans. 

Frankly Scarlet - A little spin on Gone with the Wind, me thinks?  I have heard this red pattern described as "gothic".  Interesting, huh?

At this point, that's all I know.  If I can get my hands on some pics, you can bet that I will post them here.  I am going to check with my local Vera Bradley retail store - it seems to me that's where most of the Facebook members received their sneak peek.

UPDATE ON JUNE 19, 2008:

Hopefully by now everyone has seen pics of the new fall styles.  I just returned from my local Vera Bradley retail store, and I have to agree with Amy (see comments below), the fabrics are a lot better in person!  My two favorites are the Puccini and the Night Owl.

I took my camera with me - I wanted to get a few pictures to post here.  However, wouldn't you know it, my camera batteries were dead!  I considered running over to Walgreens to get some replacements, but my three year old had other plans. (I think he polished off my cup of coffee this morning when I wasn't looking.  Not really, but that's what I told the ladies at the VB store.  They tried to force a smile, but by the way they kept glancing at the door, I got the feeling they were anxiously waiting for us to leave!)   Anyway, we had to call it a day and go home for a nap...
