I've NEVER been a purse girl. NEVER. I usually wear one until it falls apart (as did the purse I'm wearing now with one strap since the other busted out on me). But I just came across Epiphanie bags that double as a camera bag / purse and I have fallen in love. They just came out in February and I could not decide between the only 3 styles they have.
Ginger:
Lola:
(the inside of Lola & Ginger filled with photog bodies and lenses)
Belle:
So what did I do? I bought all three. CRAP! What the hell am I going to tell my husband?!?!?
Re: I just did a very bad thing...
Tell him you bought 3 purses.
THAT'S the problem!!!
OMG I'm soo loving that red one!!!
I know. I've NEVER been like this about purses, clothing, anything. But when I saw them, I almost passed out in my office chair.

Awe! Thank you so much! I've been doing a lot of research on the internet. Believe it or not, when the girls on here used to tear me apart on my pics, it just helped me get better I guess (((shhh... don't tell them I said that))). I'm constantly reading photog blogs and looking up tutorials for Lightroom 2 and Photoshop CS4 to do things the RIGHT way.
I did read Understanding Exposure and that helped me a lot.
DH's not going to be the one that's going to die. It will be me. But it came out of my private account, so I didn't spend his money, but still. This is just VERY unlike me.
This!!! GET THE RED ONE =D
Everyone starts somewhere and you're pics are really great! I'm gonna need to check that book out. I have a rebel and the basic lightroom but no photoshop
The first purse I ever bought was a Petunia Picklebottom about 3 months ago.
I still keep all my cc's and ID in my wallet which I keep in my back pocket. Every year since I was 16, a friend of mine would buy me a purse (usually something in the 20 dollar range) because (in her words) "It's time to stop carrying your wallet around in your back pocket like a man and carry a purse like a woman."
Those are cute though.
Uhh... you bought all three? They are 165 each?!
Wow... I want Ginger ... lol

i love those bags!!
i used to have a purse addiction. i made myself quit when i married DH. i still get the itch sometimes lol.
Idk, ..but as a side note- from the little bit I can see of your kitchen I likes a lot!
I'm glad you said this...otherwise you would not have liked my post. But since it was your "fun" money...enjoy them!
I just Googled and those are pretty expensive for synthetic (pleather) bags!
I'm a shopaholic and I try to conceal my purchases. I don't lie, but I don't draw attention to the fact that I buy something.
Wow.
You're crazy! lol
...Especially since there are just okay reviews on the quality.
Leather bags = HEAVY bags. Don't forget you are loading a lot of camera equipment + your purse stuff as well. I'm thankful it's not real leather, because OMG, they would be WAY too heavy to carry around. They're also waterproof too!
90% of the reviews (I've done a good amount of research on blogs, photog sites, etc) have been nothing but FANTASTIC reviews. I have not read ONE bad review. Some people would have liked them to add feet to the bottom, maybe an extra pocket, stuff like that, but none of the ones I have read have said they didn't like the purse/bag itself.
I LOVE your signature picture. You are doing great!
I'm totally jealous! I'm still sporting the backpack diaper bag. Ah well... it holds everything.
LOVE the blue one. love.
