Kilts and tams aren’t exactly what come to mind when hearing the name Vera Bradley. However, the designer’s Highlands collection has an undeniably Scottish vibe to it. The combination of bright colors puts an interesting spin on classic plaid.
The blues, reds, and yellows on the Patchwork Plaid Highlands Saddlebag interweave for a vibrant medley of wool fabric. The modern plaid works beautifully with the rustic quality of the classic saddlebag shape. Though it might be inspired by equestrian apparatus, this Vera Bradley bag is much more appropriate for accessorizing. How cute would it be along with a colorful scarf and tall riding boots?
Although saddlebags are making a comeback from their days in the 1970s, they provide more than just a contemporary fashion trend. Fortunately, this is one style that is functional as well as fashionable. The Highlands Saddlebag has an adjustable strap that allows it to be worn on the shoulder or cross-body. Double flap pockets on the exterior and several interior pockets make for lots of storage. Magnetic snap closures keep everything in this Vera Bradley handbag.
For around $120, you can get a taste of the Highlands and a trendy saddlebag that adds function to fashion.
