Behind the Scenes: Maggie Bags Staff Picks for Favorite Bag

With the holidays right around the corner, the discussion around the office watercooler has been centered around our staff’s favorite bag from the Maggie Bags™ line. Because we love sharing with our customers, here are our staff picks for favorite bag, and why we love it so much!

Missy Shealy, Operations Assistant - “I love the LeConte Messenger. I am going to get one to put my makeup, shampoo, conditioner, blow dryer, brush, and hair spray when I travel. Good idea huh? : )”

Amy Keener, Customer Service - “My favorite bag would be the Bailey Bag. It is lightweight and can be worn as a crossbody bag, keeping your hands free. It is great for shopping and trips when you just need the basics in your purse.”

Maggie Dew, Intern - “My favorite bag would have to be the Bailey Bag. I love this bag because it’s so light and easy to grab. I throw what I need in it and go. It’s so cute, and the color combinations are so pretty together. I can match them to any outfit I own.”

 

Amanda Cox, Chief Operations Officer - “The Tote of Many Colors is a great all-purpose tote bag. I carry one for a diaper bag/purse. I have one stuffed with my workout clothes and another in my car if I need a shopping bag.”

Sheri Scates, Customer Service - “My favorite bag is the Tote of Many Colors in Magenta Combo with the zippered top. It is just the right size for my important things when I travel to and from KY, go shopping or run around town. With the zipper I feel safe that I will not lose of my important items. The size allows me to carry everything I might need as well as add items I pick up while out. My grandchildren are also ready for drawing supplies, snacks and even a sip of water. This bag accommodates well! I have the color combo of Magenta which is such a pleasing color blend that complements most anything I would wear.”

Martha Lay, Accounting - “I like the Campus Tote for its roominess and looks.”

Kerri Karel, Senior Director of Marketing - “I LOVE the Campus Tote. It is the perfect size to carry every day. Until I discovered the Campus Tote I carried a single handbag until it worn out. Now I have eight or nine colors and switch out my Campus Tote regularly. Another bonus since Maggie Bags are machine washable I do not have to worry about my bags getting dirty. They will last me a very long time.”

Candace N’Diaye, Customer Service & Marketing - “This a hard choice for me, but if I had to choose just one, it would be the Campus Tote. It’s the perfect size not only to carry as a purse, but to double as a plethora of other things. I mainly use it for a gym bag, office tote, and as a shutterbug, a camera bag. It has so many different uses and can take a LOT of abuse, and as someone who can be quite rough on a bag, I appreciate that.”

Penny Scott, Customer Service Lead - “Currently, I would have to say my favorite Maggie Bag is the Betty Bag. It’s functionality is awesome…all the outside zippers going on and the depth of the bag even allows for a hair brush. The length of the shoulder strap allows you to wear it on either one shoulder or across your chest. And, the color options are great!!! The inside pockets allow for my specs to fit without getting scratched. Along, with much needed items that I may need throughout my day.”

Callie Rickards, Creative Director - “My favorite Maggie Bag is the Large SoHo Satchel in Sand. First of all, it’s big enough to hold all of my daily needs. Size is always priority for me when choosing a bag. I adore the closure, as it remind me of all the leather bags from the 1960’s that I have always been a fan of. I also LOVE the sheen of the sand colored seatbelt. The exterior side pockets are key as well. All together this bag has everything I need: style, volume, and function.”

In the comments, let us know your favorite Maggie Bag and why.

From all the Maggie Bags staff, we wish you a wonderful holiday season!

Product Spotlight: The Cicily Tote

Like many of you, I usually lean towards carrying a large and roomy handbag. But sometimes you need something a bit more compact. Enter the Cicily Tote.

The Cicily Tote is the perfect size. It is compact, but large enough to hold all the essentials. The interior features a zippered pocket that is perfect for holding your lipstick, compact and perfume. As with all Maggie Bags, it is lined with our signature purple satin lining. Additionally, the bag features four nickel-plated feet on the bottom for added stability. Other features include a key pocket & cell phone pocket, so you have easy access to the most important items in your bag.

While it is extremely versatile, here are my four favorite ways to use the Cicily Tote:

  1. Going to the game. Ladies, you know what happens when you carry a large bag to a sporting event. It’s crowded, usually dirty, and you end up bumping people around you the entire game. The Cicily Tote can easily remain on your shoulder throughout the game, and still not be in the way. But if you really have to sit it on the ground beneath your seat, not to worry — the Cicily Tote is machine washable!
  2. Date night/Girl’s night out. This bag is large enough to hold your wallet, phone, keys and makeup, but still small enough to carry for a night out.
  3. Downtown/urban exploration. The straps offer a 7.5″ drop, making this easily carried either as a shoulder bag, or in hand. This shorter strap length also makes it easy to ensure that you alone have access to the bag’s contents.
  4. As an alternative to a clutch. We all love the look and simplicity of a clutch. The one down side? You have to carry it around in your hand all night! It’s easy to sit it down and forget, or otherwise lose your bag, thereby losing your keys, credit cards, and a plethora of other things.

The Cicily Tote also makes a great gift. It’s neither too large nor too small, and is adaptable for most women. And the best part? We have something for everyone. The Cicily Tote is available in Dark Chocolate, Black, Lime, Clementine, and Tuxedo.

Going seamlessly from day to night, the Cicily Tote is a definite ‘must have’ for your closet.

Organic Food on a Budget

Organic food has become a big deal in the past few years, and there’s a good reason for that. The problem with organic food is that it can get so expensive! Which is why I’m sharing my top tips for buying organic food on a budget.

Organic Food is the Best Food

Organic food is the best food. It’s free of pesticides, antibiotics, growth hormones, and a host of other things that are horrible for us. When I made the switch to organic food, I felt a change within a couple of weeks. It makes sense, really. If you put terrible things into your body, you’ll FEEL terrible. Besides my improved health, the other thing I noticed was the drain on my wallet. Organic food is EXPENSIVE! So I set out to find a way to eat healthy organic food without breaking the bank.

Buy in Bulk

A great way to save on organic food is to buy in bulk. Buying in bulk will ALWAYS save you money. There’s one big thing to remember when buying in bulk….organic food has no preservatives, so it doesn’t last as long. If you buy in bulk the freezer is your friend.

Coupons, Coupons, Coupons

Of course, there are no coupons for produce or meats (usually). However, there are coupons for organic food like rice, beans, pasta, and the like. If you’re going all the way with organics, coupons are the way to go. They’ll save you A TON of money. Quick tip: If you have more than one coupon with a limit on the number of items that you can buy, use the self-checkout lane. Separate those items into two (or more) orders. You’ve got your coupon goodness!

Coupon and Sale Apps

While similar to coupons, coupon and sale apps for your smart phone are just a little different. These apps generally involve certain stores or brands. I use these apps to help me more easily find any organic food coupons or deals I may have missed. While I haven’t seen a lot of offers on these apps, I have seen some. And with the popularity of organic food on the rise, coupon and sale apps are two tools to keep an eye on. I predict more savings in the future.

House Brands

When stores finally jumped on the bandwagon and started making house brand organic food, I was thrilled. I thoroughly checked the labels, and it was true. 100% organic, AND cheap. I was in heaven. Always, ALWAYS check for house brands on organic food such as rice, beans, pasta, and snacks. You’ll almost always find a deal.

I’ve got a pretty good system for getting my organic food on the cheap, but I’m always looking for even more ways to save. How do you save on organic food?

Product Spotlight: The LeConte Messenger Bag

 

If you haven’t heard about the LeConte Messenger, you’re definitely missing out.

As we head into the holidays, you probably have at least one person on your list that is always hard to buy for. They either buy what they need when they need it, are picky, or simply difficult to read. Regardless of which of these people you’re facing this holiday season, the LeConte is the perfect solution.

Named after one of the highest peaks in the Great Smoky Mountains, the LeConte Messenger bag stands out in a crowd. As part of our LUXE line, this specially-designed laptop bag offers unique features and design details that give it a luxurious feel.

The LeConte Messenger is perfect for a variety of uses. Here are just a few of the ways this bag works:

  • As a laptop bag. There is ample space to hold a standard laptop, and still have room for any important files & folders you may need. Five penholders and multiple interior pockets make it highly functional.
  • As an overnight bag. If you’re someone who can pack light, this is perfect to hold just the essentials without having to carry a small suitcase.
  • As a school/university bag. There is a reason messenger bags are a common sight on campuses the world over. They are comfortable to carry, can hold an immense amount of paperwork and books, and don’t take up a lot of room. There is also a pocket on each side of the exterior of the bag, so you can easily carry your coffee and/or water for those early classes & treks across campus.
  • As a carry-on for air travel. It easily fits into the overhead compartment or slides under the seat in front of you. It also makes it easy to sort your items into areas of the bag so you can quickly and easily find what you need. It offers an adjustable shoulder strap, but also gives you the option of a briefcase-style handle.
  • As an art supply bag. The multiple pockets, penholders and secure buckles make this a wonderful option to carry all of your pens, pencils, markers and paints, as well as a sketchpad or two.

The perfect example of durability meets design, the LeConte Messenger comes in three color options: Cranberry, Black and Pebble. As with all Maggie Bags products, it is made from seatbelt webbing, so you don’t have to be worried about stuffing it to capacity.

 

 

So whether you’re buying for that hard-to-buy for friend or family member, a Secret Santa gift, or even a little self-indulgence, the LeConte is the perfect gender-neutral gift this holiday-season.
