Today I’m releasing a new bag I’m super excited about. It’s called the Izzie Convertible Backpack. It’s a medium size backpack that can also be worn as a cross-body bag. Read on to learn more about it, and don’t miss the coupon code at the bottom of this post!
The inside is roomy and has great pockets — a large zip pocket and slip pockets on the interior front and back.
The strap can be adjusted to be a cross-body bag very quickly.
I always forget to mention this so I’m just going to say it now while I’m thinking about it. I’ve put together hardware kits for each of my bags, and this one is no different. So, no need to go on a hunt for quality hardware! These are premium quality, nickel-finish hardware that will make your bag look great.
You’re going to love these tester bags. They did an AWESOME job on their backpacks, so let’s take a look at them!
Brinkley used this cute Tula Pink print, and her cat is adorable!
Cara combined this Essex linen and a gorgeous Art Gallery print. Lovely!
Daryl had to convince me this wasn’t cork. Wow, what a great look!
Jan combined canvas and vinyl for this professional finish. Gorgeous!
Sue’s bag is amazing. I just love the added touch of the embroidery on the flap. Very striking!
Joyce made this beautiful purple – flower backpack. Love it.
Ramona incorporated this map print for her beautiful backpack.
Melissa shows us how great it looks to have a solid on the body and a pattern on the flap. Great combo!
Stacey picked some beautiful rich colors for a classy look!
So, there you have it. How fun was that! I just love all of these bags and it’s so cool to scroll through them to see all the personal touches everyone added. Way to go testers!
