Vera Bradley was THE bag for teenage girls in the late 90s and early 2000s. But in the era of clean greiges and quiet luxury, the brand lost its way.

~ Most Perfect Couple is a short film adaptation of real Devon Sawa fan fiction from 2002 ~
It stars Kristen Mulrooney, the now 40 year-old author, playing her teen self, alongside a now 46 year-old Devon Sawa as her teen love interest. And of course, everyone was outfitted in Vera Bradley’s new fall collection.
