Christopher Kane and our Retro Circles|Winner $50 voucher

We are BUSY - busier than Britney's hair extension applicator , busier than Katie Holmes' boyfriend jeans and WAY busier than Angelina's nanny.
We have had a great 2 weeks with a successful Breast Cancer fundraising lunch where brag bags even made the West Australian social pages...finally!, a call from Woman's Day to feature some of our clutches, and hertime women's evening with the 1500 guests all leaving with a gift of our custom silk-screen scarves. We hope you are loving your scarf!

Check out page 30 of last week's Grazia to see how fashion's bad boy Christopher Kane has taken inspiration from our funky Retro Circles at London Fashion Week. Our Retro Circles hit the stores on September 1, this mag is dated September 26!


Also at the news stand last week Who Weekly's Best and Worst Dressed 2008 with our favourite First Lady of Fashion Annebelle van Tongeren on the fashion jury.

If you haven't noticed, the weather is heating up. Celebrate with a new linen crossbody messenger in orange. You can find it in our online shop today at www.bragbags.com.au

Fashion Parade, Next Events, How to Wear Jeans

It has been a very very bust week and a half at brag bags - we had the
Pearls of Wisdom breakfast which featured a brag bags fashion parade
set to Fergie's "Labels or Love". Big thanks to Danielle and the
girls at Metro Models for such a great show. All the girls had a great
time and the Brag Bags team were one of the last to leave.


Ms WWFB's held a very successful fundraising morning at the Perth
International School. Thanks to all the ladies especially Tracy
for making me feel so welcome. FREE PLUG - Contact us at Brag Bags for
all your fundraising needs.


This week we will be supporting the Breast Cancer Fundraiser - Fashion & Flowers
at Frasiers in Kings Park. On Sunday the 14th of September
we will have a stall at UpMarket at the Perth Town Hall from 12 -
5pm. Come along and grab yourself something fabulous.

The week beginning Monday the 15th of September to Saturday 20th of
September bragbags will be at Melville Plaza Shopping Centre on
Canning Highway - please come by and say Hi!





BAG OF THE WEEK - Spent the weekend toting around my Yellow Pleated
Shoulder bag and just found it fun, fashionable and fabulous - a
little like the Brag Bags Team actually :)





We want you all to look and feel as fabulous as you are so though some timely tips for choosing jeans would come in handy:




If you are curvy, dark jeans are the most flattering as light or
bleached denim will emphasize your thighs and bottom - eekkk!




If you are vertically challenged stay away from cropped jeans as they
will make you look shorter. (Ms WWFB I am looking at you).




Back pockets - not just somewhere to pop your mobile - so choose them
carefully. To slim down a generous bottom opt for large, flat pockets.
Flap pockets or prominent stitching however will add definition to a
flat behind.
