This Purse is TOTALLY YOU!!

Our world is running at warp speeds these days, and we are always searching for ways to make keeping up just a bit easier.

So we have our iPhone that does it all and our cars equipped with GPS and On Star and even a DVD for the kids. Our laptops keep us up to speed on everything and we even have Nike sneakers that multitask; they are sneakers as well as an accessory to our iPod.

So for everything we do, ladies, is it a shock that we can’t keep track of the most necessary of things, like our keys? We’ve already given you a solution to that problem – the HipPurse. And now the next multifunctional HipPurse you buy is just as multifaceted as your life.

So here is a quick reminder: multiple styles, three ways to wear ‘em. Fold the flap over your jeans, use the strap around your waist, or sling it across your body.

But that’s not all.

We can make your purse one-of-a-kind. We screen print, embroider, emboss, and deboss anything you want. Got a company logo? Or a product stamp you want to sell? Put 'em on a purse! There is no end to the possibilities. Anything you think of, we will try and make a HipPurse to match.

There is no excuse! This purse can reflect your personal style no matter how formal, funky, or fashionable it is!

Plus with multiple styles and colors to choose from, there is no doubt about it; you will absolutely love your purse.

Here is the Getaway with the Cypress Gardens Amusement Park logo. It comes in black or white.
Check out www.hippurse.com/brand.php to see how you can brand your HipPurse too!


Want an eye-catching bag? The Escape comes in glossy red, with a silver buckle. What about a bag that is neutral and goes with everything? Our Day Tripper comes in either black or a natural camel color. And the Venture bag comes in a soft gray that will compliment any outfit.

We give back... and now we have a gift for you!

President Barack Obama has said, “Today we begin in earnest the work of making sure that the world we leave our children is just a little bit better than the one we inhabit today.”

We all know that the condition our economy and our world are in, are not, by any means, acceptable. Change is what we all hope for, and are all striving to evoke. Even a little thing to help our country, our people, our world, will make a difference.

Our company, HipPurse LLC, has become a part of that change. And our loyal customers can make a difference too. Whenever an order is shipped from us, there are three trees planted through Trees for the Future.

Trees for the Future has been helping our planet since 1989. An organization out of Silver Spring, Maryland, they are an, “agroforestry resource center helping people in developing countries improve their rural livelihoods through the introduction of environmentally sustainable land management projects focused on beneficial tree planting” (http://www.treesftf.org/).

The volunteers for Trees for the Future have traveled to countries in Africa, Asia, and Central America, to educate and help restore devastated areas. They plant trees and also educate the people, giving underprivileged areas the knowledge and power to thrive.

HipPurse is proud to be a ‘Plant-a-Tree’ partner with Trees for the Future. Other partners include companies like: L’Oreal, Whole Foods Market, and 41pounds.org.

Operation Smile


Our company is also involved with Operation Smile; an organization founded in 1982, devoted to treating children and young adults with cleft palates, lips, and other facial deformities.

The charity, based in Virginia, has helped millions worldwide, by training medical professionals and giving patients the health they deserve, free of charge. Operation Smile has been all over the world and is currently present in 51 countries, including: Mexico, Thailand, Peru, China, and Egypt.

Operation Smile has touched the lives of many, and has become a cause close to the hearts of many. As a company that is family-owned, we have become a part of Operation Smile because it is close to the hearts of many, including our mother. “She knew it only took around $250 to complete a surgery and she wanted to be a part of that mission,” said Vice President, Kenya D’Agustino.

Celebrity Ambassadors that have become spokespeople for the charity include: singer, Jessica Simpson; actress Roselyn Sanchez and her husband, Eric Winter; and O.A.R musician, Benj Gershman.

Ambassador corporations have donated millions of dollars for the cause. Because of its success, Operation Smile won the 2008 Non-profit Organization of the Year Award, from the DMA (Direct Marketing Association) Non-profit Federation of New York. To learn more, and to make a donation, visit http://www.operationsmile.org/.

The Children’s Home

HipPurse LLC not only supports national charities and organizations, but we give back to our local communities as well. Through a school donation, Designer, Ladene Paulino, found a local safe-haven. The Children’s Home, located in Cromwell, Connecticut, is a Christian treatment centre and special education school. D’Agustino explained, “When we were deciding on charities, [Ladene] knew it could help them on a much bigger scale.”

The Home provides a safe and nurturing environment for children and families with special needs, ranging from family therapy programs, to residential and out-patient treatments.
They even have a therapeutic community program which includes an outdoor rope course and bonding and problem-solving activities. Groups, like church groups and companies, can work on team and self-esteem building exercises through the program.

The Children’s Home offers volunteer programs and is always in need. Supplies for the children, tutors, or members to help with their Buddy Program are always welcome. For information on how to help The Children’s Home, visit http://www.childhome.org/.

The Women’s Center & Shelter of Greater Pittsburgh

As a company of women who are devoted to supporting others and better the world, we also support The Women’s Center & Shelter of Greater Pittsburgh; one of the first six shelters for women who are victims of abuse.

This year will be their 35th year in operation, but despite all the help they have done over the course of those years, The Center still needs the help of others. Last year, they had to turn away 360 women and children.

Donations and cell phones are collected to help the shelter and the women they support. United Way is also a contributor for this cause.

Celebrity, Christina Aguilera, has openly shared her story of family abuse, and has voiced her gratitude to this shelter, which is located in her hometown. The Women’s Center is a charity she supports as a celebrity, and as a woman who has overcome family violence.

Visit http://www.wcspittsburgh.org/, The Women’s Center website, to find out more.


HipPurse LLC is active in bettering the world we live in. As women, we want to have a voice; and through the charities we support, we are able to have just that. Whether we are helping the environment or the lives of the lesser fortunate, we are proud to say we can. And it is because of you, the women who believe in our product, who purchase our purses, and spread our name to others. You are a part of our ability to better our community and our Earth.
