Well Woo hoot Gracie. I love your Blog, you are so inspirational, and such wonderful taste. You really add to my online community. I would like your beautiful bag because my one and only large bag recently got ruined by battery acid on a road trip, and since I just got back, I don't have the funds to get a new one, especially being a recessionista. I have been carrying my life around in a canvas tote. You have inspired me to give to someone outside of my circle this holiday, thank you. Please e-mail jotterstream@gmail.com.
I deserve this bag because I would give it to someone else. I have a sister with two little children and she scrapes and saves for them, gives them whatever she wants. I'd really love to give her something wonderful for the holidays. Something that is just for her. Something decadent I, unfortunately, can't afford.
I haven't had a reason to comment before but I've been following your blog for awhile :)

I deserve this bag because... it would be the first designed bag I would ever have owned since I'm a college student who can barely afford true religion jeans. lol. Honestly, its a beautiful bag and I'm a sucker for neutrals when it comes to bags. I think it would be a great add on to my collection (or not so collection) of handbags. I want to start one! :) Thanks for the opportunity, btw.

I'd love to have this bag because this would be my first designer bag. It's big enough to put all my college stuff inside and carry everyday. I really love the color and design too. ♥
I've been subscribed to your blog more than a year and love to read your every post. They are all so inspiring and thank for that too. :D

Oh boy, I need this bag!
I work at a high fashion magazine, but don't make enough money to be as luxurious as my coworkers and surroundings, and would just about die to have something so fantastic and stylish to show off. Plus I can always say my husband bought it for me and he will earn lavish points with my family. ;)
And lots of people I work with read your blog, but I'll be sure to pass it on to anyone who doesn't!

I want this bag because I have never spent more than $11 on a purse, and that was something like 4 years ago. This bag is so beautiful - how could I NOT want it?
I would love to win this for my mum, who hasn't had a good bag in a while. She's really selfless and gives everything to us, so this would be such a wonderful present for her.

I am a new reader! I love this beautiful bag, it is so High Fashion! :) I am not any more deserving than any other girl. Actually, I would give it to my sister, a mother of two little ones. Thanks for the chance to win!

Wowwee!!! What an awesome bag!! I deserve this bag because I've been very good this year (and last year too :P) and haven't bought any bag for myself. I'm currently using a hand-me-down bag from my sis and can you believe that I don't even own a wallet?! It's true!
Gonna tell my sister about this giveaway! Thank you!

I think you should give the bags to the person who knows what to do with it the most and that would be me!!!
Hobo bags originally were carried on a stick, over a hobo's shoulder. In the bag was their life. Thus, the modern day Hobo bag - purses women need to hall around their life. What is great about this Olivia Harris bag is that it is still great quality w/out the heaviness of a lot of the humongous hobo bags. Besides carrying all my crap, it is good for covering up your gut on bloated days (that's what the celebs do), perfect for slinging when a real hobo tries to snatch it and great for airplane travel now that we have to pay for our bags. In fact, the airlines are encouraging all of us to become hobo's really. If you can't put everything in a hobo bag, don't bother flying.
Without sacrificing fashion for utility, this hobo bag becomes my new BFF or maybe life partner or instead of my boo, my hobo.

I would LOVE to own this gorgeous bag because as much as I love all my $1.79 thrift store bags, it's nice to have something luxurious every once in awhile. This is the kind of bag that you could carry with just about anything, too, which is perfect because I cannot even tell you how many times I've switched purses, only to realize at the checkout that I left my wallet in the first one!
P.S. I love your simple layout and phenomenal variety of posting topics - definitely be back!!! I've told a couple Twitter friends already!

I lived through more than 50 operations, a heart transplant, and cancer in the past eight years. It would be great to have a LARGE and BEAUTIFUL bag for all the medical paraphernalia I have to carry around even for local running about. 8^) I am posting this on all my social networking accounts! www.cindyscinto.com
I would love to have this bag because of the timeless beauty of tradition characteristic of this bag. It will last a long time. I don't have the opportunity to purchase high quality items so this is one contest that I needed to enter. Thank you for the wonderful opportunity.sonsethues@yahoo.com
I would love to win this bag since it is exactly the style I love- my daughter could give it to me for Christmas :)
I tweeted about this giveaway and told everyone I love the site too

I NEED this bag 'cause I just recently quit my job (we're moving) and so I feel like I shouldn't needless spend any money on ANYTHING... which is KILLING ME. Maybe something free would make me feel better? :D

thanks, Grace, for such a good giveaway!

I'd love to win this for my sister. She just started college this year and it would be perfect for her to carry all of her books in! What a great Christmas present :DD

I would love this bag, As being almost fresh out of graduate school and early in my career, plus wanting to sort of branch out into a different field (still science related though!). this bag would really help me look professional and be very well organized.! I don't have much money to afford such nice things on my own so this would also be a very nice reward.
Thanks!
moondancer38@hotmail.com
i love big bags.
but i have to say that it would work as a perfect christmas gift for me sister. this past may her boyfriend was diagnosed with cancer. they have been trying to pay the bills and stay afloat. i would give this to her. she hasn't had time for herself, she hasn't had the money to spend something on herself. she is constantly giving people the love and support they need and i would love to give something back to her.

Olivia Harris makes such gorgeous bags--who wouldn't want one? I am the kind of girl who puts my whole life in my bag...just in case. In case of what? Flood, earthquake, fire? That, I don't know the answer to. I just want to be prepared (the girl scout in me!).
valhoff3 at yahoo dot com
i love big bags and i cannot lie,
it's for my mom i can't deny
something light but in all seriousness i would love to give this to my mom because she has been amazing and loving to everyone. if you need help she will be the first to raise a hand and she is willing to give anything for my sisters and i! She has worked so hard and is so selfless! my only hope isthat i can be even a fraction of what she is. this would be great to show her how much i love her!

I would love to have this bag, because, quite frankly, I've never had anything that nice before. In this economy, I don't have the funds to buy one anyways.
BUT!
Its a beautiful bag, and I'm sure whoever wins would love it to death :)
k m young 313 @ gmail . com
^one word, sorry :(
I want this bag because it is classy, chic and large enough to
hold the arsenal of makeup, toiletries and odds & ends I carry
around every day. Without a doubt,
I'll never be able to afford such
a high end bag and it would certainly be nice to feel like a
sophisticated lady toting this hobo about town!!
* I will tell my friends Cali and Erin about this site!

P.S. Lovely blog.
I need and want this bag because it is the perfect day bag that would fit my tons of stuff! It is so pretty and perfect. I've been a long time fan of Coach, but haven't really been able to afford/justify spending the $$ to get a purse. I'm a first time home owner, so all our extra dough is going towards the house. So I would LOVE to win this!

any girl would be lucky to add this classic olivia harris bag to her wardrobe! it's so versatile (great for work, school, or shopping) and timeless, hence why i know it would be a treasured possession of its proud new owner for many years to come. if i win this bag i think it would be a perfect christmas gift to stuff with a few goodies and give to a friend or family member (i'm not sure who the ideal recepient would be yet, it's going to be a difficult decision).
i'm a college student and unfortunately about the only thing i can afford these days is food :). i wish i could splurge on a beautiful bag such as the one you're giving away because i have so many deserving people in my life! over the years i've realized how much more gratifying it is to give than to receive and i can't wait to see the look on a lucky family member or friend's face if i'm able to give her this bag!
thank you for your generosity! i can be contacted at sarahjgarraty@gmail.com.
This bag is a beauty! It's really gorgeous -- and would definitely make a fabulous gift.
I'd *love* to give this bag to my sister-in-law, Julie. Since the beginnging of my relationship with her brother, she's always welcomed me into the family and made me feel like a genuine sister. She's loving mother, a devoted daughter, and a thoughtful colleague and friend. She could never afford such a gorgeous bag... although she deserves it. Julie looks like a model and appreciate fashion -- but never splurges on things for herself. I'd absolutely love to gift her with this bag! She'd be a great walking advertisement for this Olivia Harris Turnlock Flap Hobo. :)

I started following your blog last year after a professor of mine assigned reading one of your posts as part of an assignment. As a poor girl putting herself through fashion school, i can barely even afford my trips to thrift and antique stores, much less a beautiful designer bag. As an added bonus i'll send you one of my handmade jewelry creations as a thank you if i win! please! happy holiday season:)

Not only have I been unable to find a bag that is a perfect combination of the two colours but also big enough to fit my everyday life.
Seeing I am currently jobless, I have no way to fund bags or shoes (my poison).. So please please please send me that bag :-) It will be the best christmas gift I get this year.
I am a fresh reader and have bookmarked your blog so I can go through it when I have time. And I told my whole twitter list about your blog..
Please send me an e-mail and make my day solidfreshdope@gmail.com
I want to win this bag because it's a perfect mix of classic and trendy and is the bigger size that I need.

I deserve this bag because I'm giving it to my little sister. She's a lowly wage slave and actually sells these purses. The poor dear drools over them all day long.
Also, HFG loves me and I love her.
Also, I tweeted the hell out of this.

-Nicole
I want this bag because I go out of town often and I'm always on the lookout for weekend/overnight/big bags to use. Nothing in my budget range is high quality and lasts a long time, and I believe this bag can fulfill those expectations. This is such a great giveaway idea. I'm crossing my fingers.
cleverlycharmed@hotmail.com
I wish you could send each and every one of us one of these bags too! :-) I would love to have this bag because I love the classic look of it, I don't really go for the trendy, of the moment, fad bags. I also love the neutral colors in it, because it would go with everything I wear. I don't have any designer bags, I have chronic health issues that leave me on aide and unable to work, so that means no money for fun accessories like this.
Thanks for giving me the opportunity to win, and for hosting this giveaway! :-)
