How does a single store in Omaha, Nebraska, become one of the largest jewelry stores in the nation? By never forgetting our history. It began 150 years ago, when Louis Borsheim had a vision to help others celebrate special occasions with fine jewelry, watches and gifts. In 1947, Louis Friedman bought the business and operated it with his son Ike. While Louis and Ike Friedman kept the Borsheims name, they ushered in a new era of success for the jewelry store. Ike, a dynamic businessman, developed the business philosophy that still guides our company today: offer an extensive inventory and ...

Ivanka Trump

In 2007, Ivanka seized an opportunity to launch a jewelry collection with a potential partner in real estate—an acquaintance with longstanding ties to the luxury jewelry market and significant expertise in diamonds. She was drawn to the idea of creating a jewelry line for women buying for themselves. The concept of a self-purchasing female was lost among the traditional jewelers who catered their business almost exclusively to men. And so, the Ivanka Trump brand was born. A few years later, Ivanka identified a void in the fashion space. Recognizing the absence of a brand that addressed the needs of the modern professional woman, Ivanka launched her eponymous fashion label with an assortment of chic, appropriately sexy and accessibly priced shoes and handbags. Women appreciated the fresh sensibility and fuss-free practicality. The business took off. The line grew to include apparel, accessories, home, fragrance and sunglasses—and it didn`t stop there. Ivanka realized there was an opportunity to make an impact in the lives of the women buying her products—and so she brought together a team to evolve the brand into a lifestyle concept dedicated to women who work. This site is the realization of that vision. It`s a celebration of women working at all aspects of their lives. Women who transition between their various roles in professional and personal capacities: building careers, raising children, nurturing relationships and pursuing passions.

Vera Bradley

Welcome into our world, where we believe in making every day beautiful! At Vera Bradley, we believe beauty has a unique power to inspire and improve the quality of women`s lives. Too often, beauty gets mistaken for something lofty or perfect. Something that lives in grand gestures or for a special, elite few. We believe beauty is so much more than what you see on the surface. Beauty belongs everywhere, and is especially moving when it appears in places you wouldn`t think to look and in situations you wouldn`t expect to find it. And let`s face it — we know it can make the difference between an ordinary day and an extraordinary one. Meaningful beauty has been woven into the fabric of our company since day one. Let`s flash back to day one, when the idea for this company was born in one of the most un-beautiful places in the world: the airport. We brought beauty to women travelers with inspired and feminine luggage, and the brand grew rapidly and organically from there — from friends and family as its first brand ambassadors into an American brand that is loved and toted by millions of women today. At its very core, Vera Bradley is an innovation brand for women. We`ve always been inspired by the needs of real women, and our proudest moments have been when we can bring communities of women together through their shared love of beauty. Our vision of hope ... Vera Bradley Co-founders Barbara Bradley Baekgaard and Patricia R. Miller began raising funds for breast cancer research in 1993 after the loss of their dear friend, Mary Sloan. Since then, their genuine commitment to this cause has evolved into the Vera Bradley Foundation for Breast Cancer. Together with our donors, event participants and volunteers, we hope for a future free from breast cancer. $25.7 million in contributions have been raised so far to support critical advancements in breast cancer research.
