Jo Totes Gracie Bag Giveaway!

| Filed Under: Giveaways

Happy Friday everyone!  To get y’all excited about another weekend on the horizon I thought today we’d have ourselves a super sweet Friday giveaway.  If you remember my post here, I love Jo Totes, really, LOVE.  
Jo Totes are amazing camera bags.  If you are a full on professional photographer or just a hobbyist you need a Jo Totes bag to carry your camera goodies, yes NEED!  This would be the perfect Christmas pressie, no? Quite perfect, in my opinion, for the photography lover in your life…maybe that’s you! 

Not only are they uber functional but they are also stylish, pretty, and amazingly durable.  I still use my Rose bag everyday.  It’s where I keep my camera goodies on a day to day basis, it keeps them protected from little hands 🙂  And then when I need my camera on the go, I can just grab my bag and head out the door.  Easy Peasy.

When Jo Totes contacted me about a giveaway and let me pick out another bag, I was thrilled to say the least.  It was time for a new look, I wanted something bold this time.  Their new Gracie bag in Teal was perfect.  I love the slouchy look of it, and the color…well, you had me at hello.

Plus it’s super roomy.  The Gracie comes with a whole bunch of removable interior pads so you can make any size padded compartment you like!  I can fit my camera with lens attached in the middle padded compartment (missing in this picture, duh!).  My external flash in one padded compartment, and my prime lens in the other padded compartment.  There is also a small zippered pocket on the inside of one wall for my wallet and keys and a larger one on the opposite wall that fits my iPad and my Kindle.

There are also two nice-sized pockets on the front with magnetic closures perfect for my phone and an extra camera battery and charger.  There is even a large zippered pocket on the front of the bag too. Holy wow! you can never have too many pockets for organization!  The Gracie totally delivers.

The Gracie bag also comes with two removable straps.  A cross body strap and a shorter shoulder strap (that’s the one I use most often!)  Isn’t it the prettiest bag?!

Here are a few other colors that the Gracie comes in…plus there are a few more colors over at Jo Totes!
So what do you think?  Are you in looooove!  
Jo Totes is so sweet to give away ONE of these awesome Gracie Bags to ONE of you, just pick your favorite color!  At a $119 value, this is one awesome giveaway!

      I own a small Sony point and shoot…but my cell phone seems to be what I use more than anything for photos. It’s always on hand for a quick shot.

    4. KristyMN says

      Wow, that is an awesome bag! I have a Nikon D40…still trying to take the best photos with it but really I am rather clueless. 🙂 I love the bag in Mustard!

    25. Abfabulies says

      Hi Maggie,

      Such a cute bag! Doesn’t look like your average camera bag at all! I have a second-hand Canon Eos 350D, and I love it! Favourite subject to photograph is of course my 3-month old son. I bet he’ll get really embarrassed once he’s a teenager and I can show his friends the thousands of pictures I took 😉

    48. Tiffany says

      I shoot with my grandmother’s old Minolta. A vintage relic of a simpler day. There is just something about real film, especially b&w! ( I do also shoot with my husbands cannon 5d mark II)

    65. Pepper says

      I just own a little camera, but I want to win this for my BFF who just started her own photography business. I don’t know what kind of camera she has, but it sure looks fancy!

    71. Allison says

      Hi!
      I have a Fuji point n shoot, but usually just use my phone nowadays. I like the turquoise.

    92. Verbenabeth says

      And have followed your blog forever! Thanks for such a fab giveaway. I’ll have a hard time functioning for the next week with my fingers so tightly crossed! 😉

    95. Jamie says

      I would love love a Jo totes bag… I have a Canon Rebel t3… Only had it for a few months and am still learning how to use it.

    96. Daisy says

      Love Jo Totes! Would really love one for my Nikon D300s as we head to Washington DC for my daughter’s 8th grade field trip! Followed you both on facebook, plus your pinterest boards! Thanks!!

    109. Jeannene Bonthuis- Carter says

      love the bag! omg… they do make stylish camera bags?!! anyway, love reading your blog here as well as your blurbs on fb about your family or what you are up to. I have 2 cameras .. being gently nudged into the 21st century , my hubby gave me a little Canon PowerShot (Elph) but I still love my 15yr old Canon EOS -nicknamed ‘the beast’
      I “liked” JO Totes on FB so I can have a look at their bags

    146. Jessica says

      hehe, well, right now I own an Iphone 4… dreaming and saving (and think i have the hubby convinced) for a dslr since our point and shoot died rather quickly.

    158. Kaitlin Jenkins says

      My husband and I have a canon eos camera that we love. He has a backpack style bag for it that he loves to carry it around it, but its a little more manly than I’d like. I would LOVE the gracie bag in that amazing mustard yellow color, oh that would be the best early bday present ever!!

    173. susang says

      done, done, done and done!
      I own a Canon EOS, a Canon Powershot SX40 HS 12.1, and little Canon point and shoot and my cell phone.
      Thanks for the chance!

    207. Heidi says

      My camera is nothing special-nikon coolpix S4100 and use my iphone a lot. Love it in Pink or Teal follow your blog and you on facebook, will follow you on pintrest if don’t already.

    230. kristy russell-smith says

      I have a Canon Rebel DSLR. I love it and take it all over the place in my hideous camera bag! I would LOVE to have a Jo-totes bag to carry!

      I follow you on facebook and pinterest and I also follow Jo-Totes on facebook and pinterest!

    236. kristy russell-smith says

      I would love to have a Jo-Totes bag to haul around my camera! I absolutely hate to carry my ugly Canon camera bag around while taking pics of my 3 year old daughter. I usually end up leaving it in the car along with all my other lenses, etc. I have a Canon EOS Rebel DSLR.

      I have like you on facebook and now follow you on pinterest.

      I have been a fan of Jo-Totes on facebook and a follower of theirs on pinterest for some time!

    254. kms says

      My beloved Canon point and shoot just died on my most recent vacation so I am using my cellphone until I can find a camera I equally love!

    258. Ashley Herrick says

      I am so happy I have stumbled upon this blog on Pinterest! First off I am a HUGE fan of JoTotes and I have been trying to save up for ages to get that exact bag you have! I am an art student (focusing in photography, I use the Canon T2I), and I have a litte bit of a photography business already started. But I have also been on a future mommy rage type thing. I cant stop pinning crafty things so I am so happy I have came across your blog!

    273. Tammy says

      OH my goodness! I just bought a new camera and need a bigger camera case and this bag so screams me because its the same color as my beloved Fins!! WOOHOO!! I receive your email.

    308. pennjos says

      Such an AWESOME bag! I hate lugging around my Canon backpack. Everyone knows its got a camera in it! I would feel much safer with a stylish, functional purse!
      I use a Canon 50D.

    328. Marita says

      Oh my God! I love the color!!! 🙂 I own a canon 500D(it’s my dads, but I’m the one to use it!) and a sony P73.
      I follow you on Google Reader.

    347. Kirsty says

      I have been trying to decide what color to get and just get one already! Thanks for the chance! I have a canon digital rebel. Trying to decide if I should upgrade or not!

    363. Karen says

      I love Jo’s Totes! And this bag would be perfect for my Canon. I followed your blog and am following you on Pinterest. Liked Jo’s Totes and liked you on FB 🙂

    390. Erin says

      i own a canon, but that’s all i know because i can’t find it! it’s nothing fancy, and it’s at least 5 years old. i wouldn’t mind a new one, but it’s not in the budget right now. too many house things to be worked on first.

    451. Mrs.T says

      I like either the teal or black bag. My current camera is a Kodak EasyShare, but it is on its way out. If I were to win the Gracie, though, it would be a birthday present for my daughter!

    454. Anonymous says

      I “LIKED” it all..and following you on Pinterest! I shoot with a Nikon 3000 and just purchased a new 24mm lens so am in need of a Jo Tote! (Turquoise is my fav colour 🙂 Thanks for the chance to win!!

    455. Allyson says

      Love the yellow one! We have a Canon rebel xti. Usually my husband carries it, but maybe I’d use it more with an awesome bag like this!

    465. dominohs says

      I don’t do Facebook. I have a Canon Power Shot and Kodak Easy Share. Love your mac and cheese recipe and my dog’s name is Gracie!

    479. DeAnna says

      I love this bag. I have a basic Kodak but hoping the man with the long white beard will bring me another camera for Christmas. I found this site from another blog and love it! I am a facebook fan, pinterest follower and a fan of Jo Totes..Kinda feel like a stalker lol Thanks for all the great info!

    480. Sandy says

      I have a small point and shoot Canon SX 210 (it’s purple and I LOVE it), and I have a Canon Rebel Digital SLR (it’s about 6 years old) I LOVE my cameras! I’ve never seen these bags before and they are awesome! Love the color choices!

    486. Lauren M says

      I just have a little Canon Powershot for now, but I’d love to have the bag for all my school stuff!

    516. Tif says

      I have a little point and shoot, but as soon as we’ve saved up we would like to upgrade to capture all of the fun moments with our little ones!

    541. karyjune says

      I have a small, purple Nikon point and shoot that we got with our bank rewards points. In the next six months we plan to get the rebel t4i. Cannot wait!

    560. cmmilner says

      Would love this to hold my ‘Christmas 2012 camera” right now I use my iPhone camera most and a little point and shoot, but I’m ready to be a big kid!

    565. Cheryl says

      I have a simple nikon cool pix but my hubby shoots with a fancy Nikon D700 and lots of different lenses that I don’t understand! I already like you on Facebook and will do the other 3 ways to enter because this bag is too cool!

    578. Marcia says

      I just got a Canon EOS T3i for my birthday last month and I was just wanting to get a Jo Totes bag! How fun! Thanks for doing this and I LOVE this new Gracie style. So hard to choose but I think I would choose the Greige color. 🙂

    579. Marcia says

      I just got a Canon EOS T3i for my birthday last month and would LOVE to have a Jo Totes bag to use!! It’s hard to pick and I love the new Gracie style they came out with. I think I would go with the Greige color. 🙂 Thanks for doing this!!

    582. Tracey says

      I just bought a Canon Rebel T3i a couple months ago – my new favorite toy! It would fit very well in this bag. 🙂

    589. Liza says

      Yikes – I own two cameras and with an active toddler I use them both. My favorite is my Nikon D-40 (awesome pictures and I have mulitple lenses – not too heavy either) and my back up is an older Kodak Easyshare camera.
