Earlier this month I read about a blog linkup on The B Bar and I immediately thought it would be fun to participate! The blog linkup came around at the perfect time because I was in the midst of deciding what to feature next in our “What’s In Our Bag?” series. So this month instead of featuring what’s actually in the bag, I’m featuring the bag itself! To learn more about the blog linkup, visit this link: The B Bar Monthly Post Linkup. This month’s question was:
“What did you purchase in the past year that became invaluable to you? Something that makes you think ‘How did I live without this item!?!'”
As soon as I read the question I thought of my camera bag. Finding the right camera bag took me a long, long time and now that I’ve found it, I definitely couldn’t live without it. So without further ado, allow me to introduce you to my favorite Kelly Moore bag, the 2 Sues.
This bag goes with me everywhere. I love that it’s a camera bag that doesn’t look like a camera bag. It’s nice and roomy on the inside and on the outside it has lots of great pockets and features. One side has two deep magnetic snap pockets where I keep items that I need easy access to such as my phone, lens cloths, and lip gloss. It also has two zipper pockets, which allow me to store other essentials such as extra batteries. I love having so many different pockets because I know exactly where to find what I’m looking for. The other side of the bag has a zipper pocket and a Credit Card | CF Card wallet, which is my favorite feature. Here’s a closer look:
The credit card pockets mean I don’t have to carry a wallet, which I love. And the CF Card wallet holds twelve CF cards. The camera bag actually comes with two straps so you can use it as a shoulder or messenger bag. I always use my 2 Sues as a messenger bag and I wear the side with the CC | CF Card wallet closest to my body.
The bag comes with a removable basket so you can use the 2 Sues as an everyday bag, too. In the image below I took the basket out and packed the bag with a 10 x 10″ album, my iPad, and a 30 ounce bottle of water. As you can see, there is still plenty of room in there to add more personal items. The bag also has an inside zipper pocket, which is great for storing more valuable items. As far as the gear the bag holds, the 2 Sues easily fits my camera with two lenses. On wedding days I will have my camera out with a lens attached to it and use the 2 Sues to hold three other lenses. When I need a different lens I can easily reach in and switch lenses out pretty quickly. For those of you wondering, yes, the 70-200mm does fit in the 2 Sues! Check it out:
The 2 Sues comes in a bunch of great colors but Eggplant is my favorite! It’s a nice shade of gray that I can wear with both black and brown. So there you have it! This was by far my best purchase last year and I highly recommend it if you’re looking for a camera bag that can double as an everyday bag, too! I hope this blog post is helpful to you!
