Whenever I make any kind of electronic equipment purchase the first thing that comes to mind (after the initial giddiness of having a new ‘toy’) is how am I going to protect my investment? With kids and my clumsiness (lol) I really need to make sure that my gadgets are protected and thanks to Jill-e Designs my camera and accessories are now safe and sound and in a stylish way too ;).
Jill-e Designs generously sent me their small Black Leather Camera Bag as well as the Potion Purple and Passion Pink Lens bags for review. I was immediately in love with all of them! I started snapping pictures of them and texting my mom and sisters and of course they were impressed with how the bags looked, more like stylish purses than camera and lens cases.
Let’s start with the lens bags, they are available in 4 vibrant colors (purple, pink, turquoise and black) and are perfectly sized for carrying extra lenses (dimensions are 5L x 4W x 13H). I personally love the yellow gold accents, they seem to add just a touch of class and elegance to the bags.
Constructed from high-quality, weather-resistant nylon on the outside the bags can really take some rough treatment without you having to worry about your lens’ getting damaged. The interior padded walls offer a fully customizable lens storage area as the adorable polka dotted dividers can be moved to any height you need very effortlessly. The drawstring top and the adjustable shoulder strap make it not only easy access for catching a shot really fast but also easy to take along with you to any photo shoot.
Don’t let the ‘small’ in the name of this bag fool you it really is not small at all. It is the perfect size for just about everything this amateur photographer on the go needs. The weather resistant black leather exterior is not only sleek and attractive but also offers several options for convenience. With both a padded shoulder strap (fully adjustable) along with dual carry handles the bag can be carried however you prefer and the exterior storage pockets offer easy access to items you might want quickly.
The interior of the bag is easily accessed with one hand thanks to the dual zipper top closure making the bag open wide so you can see all it’s contents. The exterior shell is heavily padded offering piece of mind, you just know your equipment is safe in this bag. The dividers are also strongly padded but also like the lens bags fully customizable to secure each piece of equipment is nice and tightly inside it’s own area.
And last but not least even more personal space inside the bag with several netted pockets to hold things and a matching wristlet type pouch for private items. Sometimes you just don’t want to have to carry your purse with you when you have your camera bag and possibly a diaper bag in tow, this personal little pouch has moms (or dads too!) covered and can hold your ID, money, and even is big enough for keys. I love that is is attached to the bag with a clip chord so you won’t loose your important personal things.
Got a camera? GET this bag! Trust me you won’t be sorry, Jill-e Designs really knows what they are doing when it comes to photographers needs with functional and highly fashionable bags. Equipment storage is definitely their strong suit ;).

I bet these are very useful. That’s the thing about cameras, they hardly ever come with something to transport them in… I would love to try these out, they are very stylish.
I really need a new camera bag, and this one looks so nice… lots of room but not too bulky.
These bags are beautiful and on my “wish” list!
I really need to get myself one of these. I hate digging around in my purse trying to find things.
That is one great camera bag! I love the fact that it is not obvious that you have a camera in there.

This is such a nice bag. I wish I had a big fancy camera to put it in. I’m really digging the lens bag also. The purple color just stands out.
I’ve never seen a little pad lens bag before! What a great idea. I currently have to lug around my huge camera backpack and extra lens- the lens bag would be nice for quick shoots on-the-go where I want more than one lens.
I like the size and the many storage pockets.
These look like pretty sturdy and well made bags for cameras and lenses. Great colors too!
what a nice camera bag! I would love something like this if I had a fancy camera…
This looks like well designed and very useful
I love it all!!!
These are so cute! Love the lens bags 🙂
Whats not to love about this purse! Very stylish, and water resistant 🙂
i love these bags would love to have one
What cute bags! Very different from the usual canvas bag.
Great! After reading this I MUST have this when I use my husband’s camera!
