Designer Blog: Melon Bowling

By | May 29, 2009 | Filed Under Designer Blogs

You turn the corner and hear that fateful sound of the groceries spilling out and the melons and cans rolling around.  It could be that you are a closet race car driver, or it could be that the bags don’t have a wide stable base so they tip over easy.  

We heard this so many times from our friends that we decided this needed to be improved.  So, we designed the Splash bag.  This bag has a large round base giving it lots of stability. So now when you race around, your groceries will be more apt to stay put.  

The new summer colors are available:  Lemon, Apple Green, Blueberry and Navy.

Designer Blog: Mall Haul

By | May 29, 2009 | Filed Under Designer Blogs

Whether you are headed to the mall or headed out of town, the new Mall Haul is a great companion. The bag is designed to replace the paper and plastic bags that you typically get when shopping at multiple stores.  With the Mall Haul, you can put all your new treasures into one bag and shop hands free.  The inside zip and open pockets hold keys, wallets and other necessities and the outside pocket is perfect for cell phone and receipts.  The bag rolls or folds up so it is easy to keep in the car.  

 For traveling, lots of gals take the bag with them in their suitcase and use it to bring home their new found items.  It is also a great overnight bag.

The Mall Haul comes in two styles,  lined and reversible.  Select from Staffordshire Dogs, Whimsical Circles, or Coral Garden patterns.   It is functional and fashionable and  Made in the USA.

Designer Blog: It’s Farmer’s Market Season

By | May 27, 2009 | Filed Under Designer Blogs

Artichokes, Asparagus and Cherries, oh my! 

We love farmer’s markets.  They have turned into a fun social event where you meet friends, have a bite to eat and pick up the freshest local produce in season.   They remind us of the great market days in the rural towns in France, Spain and Italy. Just like the shoppers at these European markets who bring their own sacs, we bring our newest items;  the Clam and the Farm Fresh Sacs.

The Clam is a European style string bag in its own clam shell.  It fits in a pocket or purse and holds an abundance of produce.  The Farm Fresh Sacs (which come in a bundle of three) are produce sacks for bagging your fruits and vegetables.  Both are made in the USA and come in a variety of colors which makes shopping even more fun.  We also have a variety of other reusable shopping bags from natural fibers made in the USA.

When Are Sports Bags Like Handbags?

By Amelie | May 27, 2009 | Filed Under Handbags

When are sports bags like handbags? When they are stylish and gorgeous just like handbags. And by stylish sports bags I don’t just mean pink duffels. I mean faux leather yoga bags, fashion print gym bags, and richly colored sports totes.

Designer Blog:Glam Bam Greatness!

By roxy | May 22, 2009 | Filed Under Designer Blogs

Our recently launched Limited Edition line from ROXY is available for purchase and I couldn’t be more excited!  As I was showing this line, I kept thinking about all the fantastic ways I could wear these high gloss patent vinyl bags in colors that scream summer – and what better weekend than Memorial Day to start flaunting my new Glam Bam Crossbody bag!  I’ve been carting it everywhere these past few weeks!  The shopper handles make it so I can wear it snug in my forearm or I can sling it across my body when I need both sets of hands.  The hardware detail is exaggerated and adds a bit of toughness to this bag – and it’s BRIGHT YELLOW!  What can be more fun?.

 To all out there have a great Memorial Day and I hope you have a bag as bright as this to tote around while enjoying the sunshine

 xoxo – erin
