Trader Joe’s Mini Canvas Tote Bags Spark the DIY Trend
Trader Joe’s is back with its much-talked-about mini totes, and fans are giving their bags some serious style upgrades to make them unique.
Bath & Body Works is preparing a new fruity and floral collection for Mother’s Day, designed to provide an “uplifting sensory escape built on optimism and joy.”
The body care and home fragrance brand is collaborating with Indiana-based handbag and luggage brand Vera Bradley to develop a limited-edition collection that “combines fragrance, design, and gifts across body care, home fragrance, and accessories.”
At the heart of the collection is an exclusive new fragrance, Peach Blossom & Nectar, which “features notes of peach nectar, golden freesia and sweet beechwood, delivering an authentic peach profile designed to feel fresh and uplifting for spring.”
“Perfect for mom’s celebration”
Christy Lewis, Bath & Body Works’ executive vice president of merchandising, said in a statement that the collaboration brings together “the best of what each brand does best.”
“Vera Bradley is known for color and pattern, and we are known for connecting with consumers through trend-forward fragrances,” Lewis said, adding that the team worked closely “to bring that ethos to life through scent and design.”
“Every detail, from the fragrance to the packaging, is crafted to feel thoughtful, fun and worthy of a Mother’s Day gift,” Lewis said.
Vera Bradley co-founder Barbara Bradley Beckgard said in a statement that the collection is built on the brand’s philosophy of “creating things that bring joy and connection to everyday life,” fusing “fragrance, color and design into something cheerful, uplifting and perfect for celebrating moms and the people most important to us.”
