Default Designer camera bags for women

Was looking around on the web for a better camera backpack than the one I had slotted to buy, and came across these.

jill-e designs complete product line

Was trying to find a Hello Kitty one, but these are pretty awesome. Just wish they'd show the inside as well.

Found this as well for camera straps. As well as PLENTY more. Just typed in camera straps on Google, then clicked images. Some of them would work for guys as well,..Like the skull and crossbones one, or the "Crime Scene Do Not Cross" one.

I wouldn't buy one without seeing the inside.
They have tons of dslr bags on etsy. There are Jo-totes, epiphanie bags, kelly moore bags. Lot of cute bags for the ladies.
I would love to have one!

I love Epiphanie bags! When I was searching I found this blog post that has a decent list of different camera bags for women. The only problem is that they're just as expensive as a decent purse, but totally worth it. I'm so tired of my black and gray boring dudilicious backpack, so I think I may make the switch sooner rather than later.

Have you checked Amazon? I saw some Jill-e bags there and I believe it had pictures of the bags interior. I'd check there if you are really interested in seeing the inside.

Also if you are looking at camera straps I found this helpful little tutorial the other day at iheartfaces.com. Below is the link if anyone wants to take a look. (Finally got the chance to edit the post)

As for camera bags epiphanie bags are amazing! I want one! I haven't heard of the others though. I'll have to take a look at them.

I dont want to spend that much on just a camera bag right now. That and I want a backpack. The straps I might look into more closely once I get my camera. I just thought it was awesome that they even made them.

Here's another site that I just saw someone post on facebook.
I really like the men's version better than the women's.

FWIW, I have one of the Jill-E bags, and love it. I did have a backpack style before, but almost always slung it over one shoulder instead of both. My back hurts less with the Jill-E bag (probably because it's designed for one-shoulder wear). On the model I have (black medium), the inside is pretty flexible because its got velcro compartment dividers. I can carry my body with one lens attached, two other lenses and my flash just in the main compartment. Then there are all the pockets on the outside for other stuff.

I've just ordered the Ginger epiphanie bag. I'm very excited and can't wait till it makes it's way over here - hoping I get it before Christmas! It's great to see there is a really good range of options now.

Ronie, thanks for sharing that link - I've never thought of making a cover for my strap, even though I hate it LOL - might have to give that a go soon.
