The Perfect Gift For Women Who Love Wine
It seems like every time I’ve checked out Facebook in the past five years there’s always some kind of meme about moms and drinking. Like this one –
*
or this one –
*
Personally, I’m a little tired of them but life imitates art, art imitates life, or art imitates Garfunkel. Whatevs. The point is, there are a lot of women out there ready to get their drink on at any given time of day.
Jennifer, a good friend of ours here in Ann Arbor, came up with the Vivajennz “Wine Purse” to help them out.

From the outside, it looks like a stylish, whimsical shoulder bag. But inside it’s a tote for that favorite box of wine. What makes it different than other purses is that there’s a little hole that accommodates the little spout for easy access.

I’m pretty sure it’ll work with the usual boxed wine but most of those taste like diabetic horse urine. Luckily, she also has refillable bags so you can use your favorite wine. Or Tequila. Boozer.
They come in different colors and patterns named after some of her closest friends.

There are more patterns and styles coming, so stay tuned for those. I pitched her the idea of a man-purse satchel for guys and that’s coming, too. But, alas, she’s naming it after her husband, Patrick.
Of course, taking it into a movie theater or stadium is generally frowned upon by management. And using one at a playdate at the park with other mommies is generally frowned upon by society. And the law.
But hey, there’s nothing to say that you can’t take it to a tailgate or out on the boat.

Or I guess the golf course. But I’m thinking that veil might hinder the backswing.
*
But wait, there’s more!
Jennifer’s not doing this entirely for the money, though. With every purchase of a wine purse, Vivajennz will donate money to autism research.
That makes these bags a little more beautiful, don’t you think?

How to get one
You can buy a wine purse for you or “a friend of yours” by going to www.vivajennz.com. Also check out her Facebook page.

Cheers!

I could see you carrying his and her’s bags around in Ann Arbor and depending on what is being poured, you could very well be a happy hedonist.
This is so awesome! I had to forward this post to a girlfriend of mine–it suited her perfectly!
This is so incredible I just had to put down my glass of wine to comment on it. And if I had one of these I wouldn’t have needed to stop drinking wine to type. Brilliant. Thank you.
