Featured Vendor Review {Jo Totes}

I am so excited to write a review on my favorite bag from:Jo Totes!!
I love all of their bags, but this one caught my eye. It's different, and I like different.
Why buy a fancy camera bag? Well lot's of reasons, but I'd say my number one reason is that it doesn't look like a camera bag, so people aren't thinking, "Hmmm, I bet there is a lot of expensive equipment in there," they just think it's a normal bag. If you haven't noticed, there aren't a lot of fashionable AND functional camera bags out there, that's what's so great about Jo Totes!
The bag that I reviewed is the Betsy in Mustard. I LOVE the color! When we got it in the mail, my husband opened the box and was instantly impressed that the bag came in it's own protective bag :) He also said, "This bag is REALLY nice!" Let me just tell you, this man is hard to impress when it comes to quality, so that's saying something!

Ta Da! Here it is... Don't you just love it!?Front

Back

Side

Details

Inside the bag are two straps, one short (to wear it like a purse) and one and one (adjustable length) long and a shoulder pad. Also, the three adjustable Velcro dividers.

Here are the dividers

The inside bottom and half of the sides of the bag is totally covered with the soft side of the velcro so it is completely customizable for your equipment.

I love the front pockets for lens caps, lip gloss, tissue, lens cloths, etc.

They have a magnet closure for easy access and easy, secure closure.

And the cool part, the flap is a huge pocket too!!

More details...

I absolutely LOVE that the whole thing zips closed a the top. Nothing will fall out of this baby!

I love my new Jo Totes Betsy! Head over to Jo totes NOW and pick your favorite for your Christmas Wish List!

Featured Vendor Review {Camera Coats}

Today's Featured Vendor Review is{Camera Coats}FacebookWebsite Purchase anything from their store and enter code: Deal4you to receive $10 off!!!

Camera Coats Story:{The Skinny}
In February of 2010 we took a family trip. You know how that is...bags, strollers, carseats, blah, blah... Since we were flying, our hands were especially full. I wanted to take my Nikon, but did NOT need another bag to carry onto the plane and didn't want to check my little bundle of joy. (Anyone nodding their head about now?:))
So, I went into problem solving mode. I had made a little fabric bag/holder/protector for my 6 year old's video game and decided my camera was more important...so I threw my camera in it, put it in the diaper backpack, and off we went.
It was life changing I tell you. It was protected and it didn't have to haul another bag around!
I kept that little cover on my camera (wearing it around my neck) as we went to the beach, the Magic Kingdom, and everywhere else. I was in love. My little "coat" protected my camera from the bumps of crowds, kids spills, sun, rain, snow, sand, and anything else that came my way.
My friends wanted one. And thus, began our journey with Camera Coats.

I had the opportunity to review 3 of these cute camera coats.

The Gray Chord Shabby Coat

Brown Damask Rain Slickey

And the Black Jacket

Here is my video review. I know! Great idea, right ;) !? Now, go and subscribe to me on You Tube.

And just in case you don't like watching the video:
Here are some of the images I took.
The coats come packaged in this clear plastic sack. With a cute little sticker.

In the packaging.

Inside, really cute fabric, and in some, you can choose the fabric lining! LARGE velcro tab makes it easy to fit different sizes of cameras.

Closed up, and the cute rosettes

Close up of the tag and loop. The loop is great for hanging your keys on and looping around your camera strap for safe keeping :)

Pockets on the back for lens covers, memory cards etc.

Back of the tag, cuteness!
