I just got a camera for christmas and was wondering if anyone has any suggestions on where to get a "cute" camera bag instead of one of the boring black bags.

Becky Higgins posted about these bags one time on her blog and I thought they were great but I don't have one yet so can't tell you what they are like.

If you are crafty, you can make one with just a purse.

I have two bags that I really like

Jill E in black--> http://www.jill-e.com/collections/classic-collection/tantalizing-turquoise-swing-camera-carryall

Porteen Gear - -> http://www.etsy.com/shop/PorteenGear

The Jill E bag holds a bit more than the Porteen but I think the Porteen is more comfortable to carry.

I love my Porteen Gear bag! I bought it in November and when it came in, it was a little smaller than I wanted. I contacted Robyn Porteen (she makes the bags and also works as a professional photographer) and we emailed back and forth for a few days because she wanted to be sure that she made exactly what I needed. We decided that the bigger bag was perfect for me. I had a trip coming up, and she made sure that my new bag came in time for my trip. She gives amazing customer service and makes beautiful bags!

Kelly Moore makes beautiful bags. They are beautiful and she has videos that show each one and what she carries in them.

Kelly Moore bags

but they are pricey. So I went to etsy and found this seller that sells these inserts that you can put inside any purse and turns it into a camera bag

I have one of the original JoTotes, but I also picked up a couple of camera bag inserts from Amazon and use them with in a couple of my bigger Vera Bradley Purses.

I love my porteen gear bag - I either use it or a sling backpack, depending on where I am going and what I'm taking....

Yes, the Jill-e 100CD is perfect for my needs and looks great too! It holds my 2 DSLR's and all of my equipment plus my iPad! The gold trim looks great with the black leather.

I'm very pleased

I have that bag and like it for its size. However, it doesn't have very good padding. The padding is very thin compared to other camera bags.
