What a week it’s been! We’ve finally launched our new “recycled” website – welcome – and that’s just the listed in a list of wonderful things that have happened over the last seven days.

Last Monday, my wonderful new friend Lisa Greenfield finagled a trip to the set of “Entourage” where I met their amazing wardrobe designer Amy Wescott. It was a very fun visit because their set’s very relaxed and easy-going which, if you know anything about Hollywood, is not the norm. Then again, they’re a hit series and it’s their sixth season, so I guess it’s no wonder they have a great time. I got to watch Jeremy Piven and Kevin Connolly shoot a scene – over and over and over again. I have to hand it them because the ad-libs Jeremy was coming up with were hysterical.

Then on Tuesday we got word about our QVC air date. Our Small Cinchy Totes will debut on QVC on Friday, May 22^nd at 5pm Eastern, 2pm Pacific on their “Green Living” show, which I’m told will be hosted by the imitable Carolyn Gracie. She’s fantastic! So we feel very fortunate to have her running the show, so to speak. And make sure you tune in because you’ll be getting a FANTASTIC deal on our Small Cinchies!

As if that weren’t enough, on Thursday my dear friend Eugenia Edwards let me know via Facebook that InStyle was doing “which eco-friendly tote would you wear?” poll. Needless to say, we got on it like a duck on a june bug and asked all our friends to vote for us. Last time I checked, we were ahead, and the results will be in July’s issue of InStyle magazine. What great exposure – if we win, that is. If you’d like to support us, head on over and vote for Rebagz!

And, last but not least, how do you like our new cyber-digs? Didn’t our website designer Bryce Papenbrook do a great job? My goal was to keep the look of our former website but emphasize our Rebagz brand (for lack of a better term – are we so over “branding” yet?). Also, you’ll find our online store sooooo much easier to navigate. Our last website host – I won’t mention names – was unreliable and very un-user-friendly. So I think you’ll enjoy this more. If you encounter any problems, which is not unusual when your firing up a new website, PLEASE contact me.

Have fun trolling our “recycled” pages! It’s been fun chatting with you.

All the very best to you –

XOXO Marty
