Calypso Studios Shag Bag Review and Giveaway

Earlier this year I told you about a great company called Calypso Studios and I was fortunate enough to be able to review a Pink/Green Floral Wrap Bracelet from their It's A Wrap Collection. Just to refresh your memory, Calypso Studios makes inexpensive jewelry and accessories for women both young and old, which are created from the earth's natural elements such as clay, shell, and glass, as well as recycled materials. Calypso Studios' designs are on-trend and even teens will love their jewelry and accessories, especially their Team Jewelry, which is a great way to help them celebrate their school spirit. Calypso Studios comes out with new products all the time. Their newest addition for 2011 are Shag Bags, which are eco-chic wristlets made out of colorful recycled scarf materials, which are sure to brighten up your wardrobe.  

To find out more about Calypso Studios and their wonderful line of jewelry and accessories, you can check them out on Twitter, Facebook, and/or YouTube or you could sign up for their newsletter.




My Review
Calypso Studios was kind enough to send me a Shag Bag and a White Coco Wrap Bracelet for review. (Note in the picture above you'll also see me wearing the previous Pink/Green Floral Wrap Bracelet reviewed earlier this year). I loved the last Wrap Bracelet that I reviewed and I wear it all the time. I also love the White Coco Wrap Bracelet as well. It's a 24 inch wrappable bracelet with Coco beads and a waxed linen cording. I can wrap it around my wrist approximately three times. It's a lightweight bracelet and I love the natural colors. My wrist did itch just a tiny bit the first two times wearing the new bracelet but after I got used to wearing it I had no further problems with itching and experienced no irritation, redness, etc. but I do have very, very sensitive skin and I don't think someone without sensitive skin would be bothered at all wearing a Wrap Bracelet. It's okay to get these bracelets wet because they will not ruin.

The Shag Bag wristlet measures approximately 7.5 x 5 inches in size. It is very unique, colorful and has a tie dye look to it. On the inside there is a separate zipper compartment. It is great to carry smaller things such as my cell phone, money, credit/store cards, coupons, keys, hard candy, etc. when I don't want to be burdened with my bulky purse. I love that it is made from recycled scarf materials. It's a great way to reuse someone elses old discarded scarf but in a fun, chic way. It's fun to think about who might have wore the scarf before it got made into a Shag Bag.
