The Adorableness Factor just got even higher at the Promenade at Sagemore, favored shopping destination of Jersey girls.

Vera Bradley is open, offering a parade of colorful bags, luggage and accessories. It’s a happy line that appeals to multiple generations. In fact, both my mom (she will be 82 on Aug. 18) and my former intern (a 22-year-old hottie) carry Vera Bradley bags.
Lots of visitors to the store’s website hail from Cherry Hill, Medford and other South Jersey ‘burbs so a location on Route 73 in Marlton was a natural match for the trendy retailer, says Melissa Schenkel, Vera Bradley public relations manager.

It’s a super cute boutique, 1,600 square feet of feminine indulgence.

Personally, I am fond of Vera Bradley’s hard cases for smartphones. My iPhone is wearing the Va Va Bloom case, which features a vibrant swirl of pink flowers. It is so unabashedly girly that I will never have to worry about my husband picking up my phone by mistake. That pop of pink helps me to immediately spot the phone in my purse.

Thanks, Vera!
