Stylin' with 'The Closer' on QVC

Get Brenda's Bag on QVCBy LillyKat

Got bag?

Better yet, got Brenda’s bag?

You can now.

Those of us who are obsessed with and follow The Closer know it’s all about Deputy Chief Brenda Leigh Johnson’s black tote bag – what it holds, what it doesn’t, why it seems to be a bottomless pit of chocolate bars, cell phones, make-up compacts, lipsticks, portable cooling fans, water bottles, sunglass cases and, oh yes, police badge and subsequent standard issue firearm (with handcuffs thrown in every once in a while for good measure).

Get Brenda's Bag on QVCThanks to the good folks over at QVC, fans of the show – and the bag – can now get their hands on a specially created version of Brenda’s Black Bag beginning Tuesday, July 8th. While the bag used on the show is one-of-a-kind, TNT, Warner Bros. Television and QVC have partnered together to offer us a unique replica version. The Closer Tote Bag (QVC item #A84730; price $59.00 approx.) will be unveiled on www.QVC.com Tuesday, July 8th, and is scheduled to be offered Monday, July 21st, at 8 p.m. (ET) during QVC’s Fall Fashion Designer Gallery broadcast.

“Brenda has become an icon to her diehard fans,” said Tricia Melton, senior vice president of marketing for TBS, TNT and Turner Classic Movies (TCM). “They’ve asked for a chance to buy a copy of her bag, and we listened. We are thrilled to have developed a relationship with QVC to allow fans of The Closer to have a piece of the show they love.”

We do wonder if it comes with an assortment of chocolate bars, but alas, you’ll have to pick up that accessory on your own.

The Closer returns for its fourth season with all new episodes beginning July 14th at 9 p.m. on TNT. Check out

I've been a member of QVC for a LONG time (probably too long, though I haven't purchased anything in several years - which I believe my bank account is happy about ... LOL!). I have to say I like it when they do stuff like this and/or partner with people to bring sort of a unique "niche" product to the masses. No doubt the BJ Bag should sell out. ;)
