MATERIALGASM! Camera bags hot enough to make you buy a DSLR

Reversal Of Man: I'm A New York City Detective That Strays From Cheap Suits And Short Sleeve Shirts And Ties

I do not usually write posts like this, but ever since I got my new camera for Christmas last year, I’ve been obsessed with camera bags that don’t look like camera bags. By this I mean, camera bags which are stylish and feminine instead of black, utilitarian, and ugly. annoyed I still notice people searching for bags so I thought I’d share the sources I’ve gathered from around the web. So this is sort of a link dump for those of you interested in buying a camera bag that doesn’t look like your dad’s. grin

Be careful because buying a couple of these could be more expensive than new lenses or a camera! laugh I actually make my regular handbags into camera bags using one of these. No sewing, just Velcro, and it’s a great solution if you’re on a budget. Camera bags are targets to thieves, especially when you’re traveling, so if you need to justify your expenses to anyone, your new bag was a safety measure! wink

Let me know if you guys know of any sites that I missed so I can add it to the list.

    … What. I LOVE THESE BAGS. I need one. Good idea about the partition inserts though. Maybe I’ll try that when I find a bag I like.

    what’s the point to all of this? aesthetics? listen, there’s nothing wrong with a good, old american bag that was made in china from wal-mart.
