I just looked at the Gigi Hill website and really love their Spring 2011 catalog. The photography in the catalog uses vintage theme with a modern twist. I always look at catalogs and love when they are are more fashion forward as opposed to just listing a product. The company names each purse such as The Audrey or The Sophia which is very catchy and helps develop a brand. I love how they offer roller bags for lap tops and travel. I travel on a regular basis and I am always trying to be more efficient in the airport, etc. The inside of their purses offer various compartments for keys, cell phones, etc.

This company is really stepping up their game!

I am not a rep for them but thought I would share for those of you looking for a new hand bag. I will contact the company to see if there is a local rep. If there is a rep on these boards, please email me as I am interested in getting my hands on the catalog.

I just recently got the Katherine as a gift for all my business paper's that I take to my shows. I love that it's reversible too! I have the Damask in this one.

They 've done a great job with the catalog and adding other items. I want the Lana business card holder and some other pieces.

Sandra,
I contacted the company to see if there is a local rep in my area. The company is based in Orange County, CA so maybe there is a rep in my area. I would love to be able to see the different purses in person.

From what I know of this company they have very high quality products. They are definitely a company on the rise and only want serious sellers, no kit nappers. Once you purchase their starter kit they give you a time limit to sell a certain amount of products, if you don't hit the numbers they will charge your credit card full retail for the products you received in the kit. I am actually surprised that more companies don't do this.

I have about 8 of their pieces and get compliments on them all the time. They're very unique.

Just got home from another trip with my company and my Gigi Hill pieces got a TON of attention from my peers as well as the flight attendants!

Love my goodies!

I just recently started to rep for them and I got the same reaction in a recent trip over Spring Break! I used the Audrey as my carry- on, kept me totally organized going through security at the airport! If anyone wants to order I can send a catalog or PM me for my website address!

I am not sure but can check with my local rep. I recently read a press release that Gigi Hill just received a 3 million dollars from an investment firm because of the potential for growth in the company. I really like the layout of the last catalog- the vintage look is so much fun!

Having been with them for a very short time, I can say this company is ready to explode! Their bags are amazing with the best quality I've ever seen. The only reason I am not with them is it is against my clothing company contract to sell bags, but I still have all my bags and use them daily. If you want to sell bags for a business, this is definitely the one to go with! You can't go wrong with Gigi Hill. If anyone needs a leader to talk to, mine was awesome and I'd love to give her a referral!

Cabimom,

Thanks for the feedback. I have been thinking about joining them but have had a few false starts in the direct sales world. Congratulations on the start of your new venture. I am a big fan of the clothing line that you represent.

I think Gigi Hill would be a great opportunity. From what I've seen online and read, the bags are fabulous. I need to just go on and order one.

Thank you! I am really excited for our Fall season. I LOVE fall! Are you already working with someone at GH? My former director with Gigi Hill is awesome if you need someone to work with. I hope you join them, it is a great company. I think they are having their convention soon! I can't wait to see their fall stuff.

Hi girls! (this is my 1st post on WAHM, so I hope I've got this right!)
I just returned from Gigi Hill's annual convention & let me tell you, whoever said Gigi Hill is about to explode couldn't have said it any better!! :) The Fall 2011 line is jaw-dropping & amazing & I am SO excited to be a part of it!! Someone also mentioned the new investors... I am not sure about the dollar amount, but Gigi Hill was sought out by Howard Schultz, the CEO of Starbucks and an amazing venture capitalist firm that has brought us Zulily, eBay, Pinkberry, etc.. Now on board, they plan to make Gigi Hill their next household name!! Talk about the time being right!! If anyone would like any information, etc., I'd be thrilled to help!!

I just took a look at their new Fall collection and love what I see. Right now, I am not doing any home based business and think I may take a closer look at Gigi Hill before I decide which company I would "LOVE" to represent. Right now I'm torn between two jewelry companies, but there are so many jewelry reps/companies, but not to many purse companies and these are just gorgeous.

After taking a closer look at Gigi Hill, I could not pass up this great opportunity to come aboard! I'm excited to say that I am now a Gigi Hill Stylist!

These bags are absolutely gorgeous and they come with a one year guarantee, because the company stands behind there quality!! One thing that I've noticed here in Cali, is that the customers who own them, LOVE them.

The Lana is awesome! There is built in sidebars, so thatwhen you open the flap, it brings your business ares up, for easy access. One of my favorites, too and makes a great gift!

How exciting for you! Congratulations! I've never heard of or seen GH bags, so I'll have to take a peek after seeing your excitement.

Can't wait to hear how it is going for you!

Well, if you ever want to do a swap for new jewelry, I did see a bag I was drooling over!!!

I can't wear much jewelry at the gym as I don't like when it gets in my way or swings around as I'm doing exercises. Love that you are able to work out IN STYLE!
