Gigi Hill Giveaway

You are lucky readers–another Giveaway! I am happy to introduce a home business that may be new to you: Gigi Hill bags. In addition I’m excited to personally introduce Brenda Jones, a Founding Sr. Style Leader from Forest Grove, Oregon.

 Read more about Brenda and visit her personal site.

I found these bags in the fall of 2008 when a friend from California was visiting. The bag was her carry-on, and simply her “everything” bag. I just had to have one. She was having a party the following month, and I became the proud owner of my first Gigi Hill bag. My First Reaction: Where were these bags when I was hauling all the gear to soccer and baseball games? For years I trudged to those games with cheap bags that lasted maybe a season. I toted an umbrella, blankets, sweatshirts, coats, water, snacks and more. I needed a place for keys, wallet, sunglasses (yes, sometimes we had a few rays during a game) and all those things were buried at the bottom of the bag. Turns out, Gigi Hill was started by two women with the soccer mom in mind! Many of the fabrics are oil cloth which is completely waterproof–perfect in a rainy climate. I could never do justice describing these bags in writing. Explaining all the pockets and features are shown in videos on the website. There is a video demo for each bag!

How do I use these bags now? Let me count the ways!

-The Audrey is my favorite versatile tote which I bring to all my styling appointments. Everything fits in perfectly with pockets for the small things like pens, calculator, tape measure. It’s always packed and ready to go.

-The Sophia becomes an over-sized purse when I need to carry a larger notebook or folders. If I don’t want to carry both a bag and a purse this is the perfect choice. It also holds a laptop.

-Back to the Audrey. We recently took a trip to Maui. I used this bag for my carry on and then it served as a beach bag. The original style had a canvas fabric on the inside. I came home with a bit of sand stuck to the fabric. Now the Audrey can be purchased with the oil cloth on the inside and outside! This is great for the beach or pool. After Hawaii I added it to my collection along with the Scarlett which is perfect to hold your sunscreen bottles or a wet bathing suit. The original Audrey? The sand is vacuumed away; I use it as described above.

-The Katharine: Book bag, large lunch bag, or pool bag for I-pod, magazines, sunglasses etc.

I’m also very impressed with the versatility of the messenger bag called the Carol, one of the newer designs I haven’t seen. There really is a bag for every purpose–for new moms, soccer moms or the seasoned traveler! I get comments on these bags wherever I go; they catch women’s attention because they are unique and stylish.

Do you like what you see? Have a show. Brenda is happy to travel to the Portland/Vancouver area. If you are long distance, you may be unsure about ordering without seeing and feeling; do NOT hesitate. I know you will be very happy with your purchase. Study the website, ask Brenda questions, and then order. You will have a well made, useful product for years to come! If you are looking for a way to work from home–this might be the right fit for you. I love recommending home-based businesses to women who are looking for something different.

On to the Giveaway!  Brenda is giving away a case for sunglasses: the Jackie. Fabric: Dynasty.
