Vote Totes in Accessories Magazine

Our favorite trade rag, Accessories, featured our Vote Totes in their latest issue.  Very exciting how much press this product is receiving.  Hopefully it will help spread our message about the importance of VOTING in the next election!

Vote Totes in DailyCandy

Today DailyCandy had a nice little write up about the F&M Vote Tote.  We LOVE DailyCandy so as you can imagine we were very pleased to see this.  We are always amazed at how many people read DailyCandy, we had over 15,000 people swing by our site today and check out the vote tote (sales were up 10,458% over yesterday....that is not a typo).  Hopefully all those people will help spread the word that VOTING is the new pink for 2008.

We're so happy to see our Hazel Purse has garnered some attention south of the border. Check us out in both the September and October issues. Gracias InStyle!

Born in the USA

We heard that our vote tote might make it into Nylon's America issue......but imagine our delight when we found out who was on the cover!  Our FAVORITE girl (and fan) Sienna Miller with her sister Savannah!  We are so pleased with all the good press our Vote Tote has received so far. After all, it does manage to be environmentally AND politically conscious at the same time.....Mr. Gore would be so proud! I wonder if he's in the market for a stylish new tote...

Prime Candidate

If this tote bag was up for most politically and environmentally conscious bag of the year, I'd vote for it.  Until then, here at F&M we're getting ready for the 2008 elections. Do your part by toting one of our Vote Totes around town and showing your support for your favorite politician (as long as he or she is a Democrat).

How did that little green envelope get over there?

Design*Sponge is just about my favorite thing to read online. About four times a day I get warm and fuzzy and tingly all over just looking at the photos. But today, something even better happened. I'm sitting here, just like I am now, reading about Chris Bettig (who I love by the way), and what do my little eyes spy on the side of the screen but an ad for Freddy&Ma. What?!?! I know! So exciting! I can hardly believe my eyes but there it is, a little envelope in a green nature-inspired print by Sara Jensen.  I've always wondered how those little things get over there.  Well I guess I'm still not sure. But anyway, thanks Grace!

did you catch us on Gossip Girl?!?

As you may or may not know, Ma is HUGE fan of the OC .....yeah, we know, it's a corny show....the creator of the OC has a new show out, Gossip Girl, which is based right here in NYC, more specifically the UES (that's UpperEastSide).  Last night I arrived home a few minutes after the start of the show at 9pm and asked my fiance if it was recording (I told him last week NEVER to stop recording this show even if the most important basketball/football/hockey game is playing) and turns out he had STOPPED the recording at which point I threw a fit and the show came back on......and about 2 minutes later I was ecstatic to see one of the main characters, Jenny Humphrey, holding our Jiovanna!!!  My brattiness was justified and P thought it was so great that our bag was on the show that he has now agreed to watch it with me.  You can watch the full episode HERE.

Lucky us!

Check us out in The Lucky Fall Bag Guide. They've really covered all their bases, including, but not limited to: oversized clutches, structured hobos, and soft bowlers. Freddy&Ma has a style to satisfy all these cravings, but it was our succulent purple leather bowler that made the cut this year. You can get one of your very own right here (Lucky you!) And, of course, you can customize it. Swap out the plum for a bright red that will really pop against your winter coat, or change the accent color to black to match your favorite fall blazer, or change the hardware, or, well you get the idea. Hop to it!
