Summer 2012 Vera Bradley Prints

It seems that when I just get the "new" spring print, the summer prints come out like a week later. Anyway, this summer's prints are full of floral prints in eye-catching colors. Vera Bradley has so many prints I wonder how they come up with new ones when all they use are flowers and paisleys! I like the color schemes but since I don't need anything right now, I probably won't get anything in the summer print. The fall prints will come out by the time I consider getting something in the summer print. Anyways...
Here are the prints:
Doodle Daisy



Super sized daisies and groovy flowers in a graphic-infused design of true blues, absinthe green and crisp white create a playful, energetic feeling. On a lawn of tiny green posies, they're sure to make a smile bloom on your face. The retro-modern windowpane lining adds a fresh finishing touch. 
Lime's Up

A tangy twist on floral, with fresh-squeezed appeal. Juicy citrus tones mix it up with cool turquoise and teal, kelly green and white. Black adds the defining element. Inside, a jungle of modernist leaves lends a wood block effect to this graphic design. 
Priscilla Pink


A big, bright, beautiful floral that's no "shrinking violet"! Vibrant pink sets the stage for this stylized botanical motif of chartreuse, gray, black and vanilla. A sprinkling of black-and-white blossoms lines the inside, making its own, sweet pretty-in-pink statement. 
Summer Cottage

Like bright sunshine in an old-fashioned summer garden, this bouquet of flowers flourishes in red, carnation pink and golden yellow. Navy and cornflower blues contrast with white, creating movement. The picnic basket-weave lining design completes the free and breezy mood. 

Overall, the prints are really nice and I like all of them. I don't have a favorite though. Which of these prints would you buy?

New Page

Hey everyone! I just added a tab at the top of the page that leads to another page called the "Other Blogs and Things to Consider". When you click on it, then it will make sense. On that page I posted some blogs and YouTube channels that I recommend. As my blogging "career" goes on, I will add some more things to it like TV shows in addition to the categories that I already have. If you have any suggestions for posts or for a poll I would be more than happy to consider doing it so please leave a comment below! Have a great day guys!

Kony 2012

Upon request, I have decided to do a post about Kony 2012. I first heard about it 3 days ago. A group called the Invisible Children Inc. created a video talking about Joseph Kony and the horrible things he is doing to children in Uganda. It has 64 million views (as of this post)! I will post the video below. This 30 minute long video has stirred up quite the debate, is it real or is it a scam? Well, Joseph Kony is certainly real and has made news on CNN and ABC. However, there has been criticism on what the Invisible Children group has spent donations and money earned from the cause. They have been spending money on advertising and spreading the message. So if you feel like they're not using the money in the best way possible, you can choose not to donate or buy the starter kit. You can still help by spreading the message that Joseph Kony needs to be found and arrested. But, if you really want to donate, feel free and go ahead! No one's stopping you. Anyway the whole point of this is that we should the spread message so that Joseph Kony can be stopped before more people especially children are harmed/killed! 

This is the Invisible Children Video.
