Holiday collabs don’t get much cozier than this. Vera Bradley’s quilted icons just landed at Anthropologie in three only-at-Anthro patterns—and yes, the drop is limited. The assortment spans travel-ready duffels, roomy totes and smart organizers (plus charms and giftables), with prices starting around $20 and topping out near $225. The press release confirms 39 pieces across select Anthropologie stores and online, with a curated edit on verabradley.com—translation: when your favorite print goes, it goes.
Patterns & availability (quick cheat sheet)
Expect saturated, gift-y patchworks in:
- Diamond Patchwork North Star — navy/ice tones with starry motifs (Anthropologie-exclusive).
- Somethin’ Sweet — candy-kissed patchwork (VB online + Anthropologie).
- Mistletoe — shown on Anthro as Lattice Patchwork Mistletoe (press release calls it Trellis Patchwork Mistletoe—same holiday-green story; naming differs by site).
Below are four standout picks—why they’re good, what they hold, and the specs you’ll actually want at checkout.
1) Original Duffel Bag — $130
Why it slaps: It’s the genteel workhorse of the line—squishy, light, and shaped to slip into overhead bins without a wrestling match. The Anthro listing spells it out: 100% cotton, carry-on compliant, and fitted with three interior slip pockets to tame cords, socks, or a flat iron. Dimensions are a travel-friendly 8″H × 18″L × 8.5″D with a 12″ strap drop.
Pro tip: If you’re eyeing another VB duffel down the road, most Premium Cotton styles are machine-washable on gentle (VB’s care guide says to confirm per item), which is a lifesaver after winter trips.
2) Hathaway Tote — $155
Why it slaps: Everyday carry that plays weekend, too. The Anthro page notes it’s 100% cotton, fits up to a 15″ laptop, has one outer slip + three inner pockets, and a button closure. Size lands at 13″H × 13.75″L × 6.25″D (strap drop 10.25″). Also marked carry-on compliant if you’re a personal-item maximalist.
3) Brush-Up Cosmetic Case — $80
Why it slaps: A two-story organizer with real features, not just vibes: top section with two zip pockets, bottom section with two slips + eight brush loops, full zip, 100% cotton. Dimensions: 5.75″H × 9″L × 6″D; 0.75″ handle drop.
4) 3-Pouch Organizer Set — $75
Why it slaps: Nesting pouches in three sizes, each with a full zip, cut in Anthro-exclusive prints. Sizes are Small 4″×6.5″×1.75″, Medium 6″×9″×3.75″, Large 8.75″×12.5″×4.5″. Fabric: 100% cotton. (The large pouch’s ring is clutch for clipping to a key leash.) :contentReference[oaicite:8]{index=8}
Why this drop matters (beyond the cute factor)
- Limited release with three new patterns created just for the collab; 80 Anthropologie stores are carrying the full line (select styles on VB’s site). If you love a print, don’t sit on it.
- Travel-smart specs: Anthro’s PDPs clearly flag carry-on compliance and dimensions (rarely listed this cleanly).
- Washability (select cotton styles): VB’s own care guides outline machine-wash steps for Premium Cotton bags, with the standard caveat to check the tag for hardware/structure exceptions.
Shipping, returns & where to shop
Anthropologie offers free standard shipping on orders $50+ (timelines shown at checkout) and 30-day returns on new/unused items; each product page lists the policy and carrier options. The collab is live at Anthropologie and verabradley.com right now. :contentReference[oaicite:12]{index=12}
How to choose your print (quick style notes)
- North Star reads winter-polished (navy/ice); pairs neatly with camel coats and black luggage tags.
- Somethin’ Sweet is playful and high-visibility in baggage overheads (never lose your tote again).
- Mistletoe (Lattice/Trellis) skews festive green without leaning kitsch—great for December trips.
Care tips for cotton VB bags (bookmark this)
- Close all zippers, machine wash cold on gentle (when tag permits), then line-dry flat to keep the shape.
- Spot-clean around hardware/structured bottoms if your specific style isn’t labeled machine-washable.
