Vera Bradley Launched a ‘Harry Potter’ Collection, So You Can Match Your Handbag to Your Hogwarts House

Vera Bradley is known for its bright, distinctive patterns…and for being the It brand of any girl who grew up in the early 2000s. So it’s only fitting that the accessories company just launched a line in collaboration with another early 2000s sensation: Harry Potter.

The Harry Potter + Vera Bradley collection, which launched today, is a Hogwarts-inspired line of tote bags, duffels, backpacks and accessories fit for any HP-obsessed traveler. There’s a new paisley pattern, called “Home to Hogwarts,” along with designs for each wizard house from the popular children’s book series. The prices range from $20 to $165, and it’s available both in Vera Bradley stores and online (so you don’t have to leave your couch).

“So many of our fans grew up with Harry Potter the same way they grew up with Vera Bradley,” Vera Bradley CEO Rob Wallstrom said in a press release. “In fact, this was one of the most highly requested collaborations from our customers and associates. The Harry Potter + Vera Bradley collection embodies the imagination, courage and spirit of adventure that the Harry Potter movies are known for.”

True, we’re fairly convinced that the Harry Potter craze might never diminish. Most recently, Harry Potter-inspired online “wizard classes” have been offered, and the ‘Harry Potter: A History of Magic’ exhibit located in London was made available as an online tour. You can also listen to Olivia Colman and Jonathan Van Ness read from the first Harry Potter book if you’re so inclined.

And whether you’re a Gryffindor, a Slytherin, a Ravenclaw or a Hufflepuff, there’s a themed lunchbox and matching lanyard with your name on it.
