LEXIE BARNES BAGS TO MAKE A SPLASH AT ASR

Bold, colorful bags and accessories from independent designer Lexie Barnes

September 7-9, 2007 San Diego, CA – Lexie Barnes brings a new line of women's bags and accessories to the floor at ASR. The 2008 Spring Collections from Lexie Barnes are full of fresh, thoughtful designs that appeal to creative, adventurous women of all ages. Key elements for the line include smart shapes, pockets galore, and water-resistant, eco-friendly (non-PVC) fabrics in exciting, exclusive prints.

The new line includes travel gear, shoulder bags, backpacks, laptop bags, accessories, and more. Highlights include: The *Duchess *backpack, *Darling* flight bag, and *Redondo* totes. Plus brand new products like the *Jinx *hobo bag,* Gidget* headband, and *Athena* guitar straps.

In a growing women's market in the active and outdoor industries, Lexie Barnes bags come at a perfect time. Women are finding greater opportunities to express themselves - in art, sports, business, politics... and fashion. But consumers are still looking for ways to stand out from the crowd. They want products as distinctive and special as they are. And that's exactly what Lexie Barnes has to offer. “It's surprising to see how many companies still throw in a girls line like radishes atop a salad,” says Barnes. “Our bags aren't an afterthought - they're the main course.”

Lexie Barnes is also known for her stellar craft bags, which have developed a cult-like following among hip knitters, artists and artisans all over. Her *Lady B* tote has been featured on the DIY Network's /Knitty Gritty/ and on ABC's /Desperate Housewives/. And her *Mariposa* yoga bag was hand-picked for inclusion in the presenter gift bag at the 2007 International Emmy Awards.

Launched in 2005, Lexie's bags are now available in over 50 boutiques and specialty shops in the U.S., Canada, the UK, Australia, and Japan.

More cool stuff to see at the show in Goldbox Mission booth #gb54:- The *Diva* cosmetics cases, *Cricket* laptop sleeve, *Mariposa* yoga bag, and travel accessories.- Three new knockout prints: Utopia, Pacifica, and Diablo.
