Eco Chic

Summer is the perfect time to "go green," and what better way to do so than by buying a fashionable eco-friendly bag. (Remember last summer's ever-so-famous "I'm Not A Plastic Bag" by Anya Hindmarch?) Make a statement at the grocery store, on the beach, or while running errands! Here are a few cheap, yet chic, ideas:

"The Inconvenient Bag" can be purchased at ShopIntuition for only $19.99. It's made from 100% biodegradable cotton canvas, with non-toxic inks and dyes, and is sturdy enough to hold up to 45 pounds. "The Inconvenient Bag" features two styles (as seen below): "A New Day" and "A Little Less."



Target is offering "Lulu Canvas Shopper Totes" for a mere $10.00, a "Contents Recycled Tote" for $16.99, and a red "Standard Reusable Shopping Bag" for an awesome $1.49!





And, ecobags.com has 13 different "Totes with Quotes." My favorite is the "Get Hip Get Green" bag that costs $5.99. Every bag purchased means a donation will go to The Green Ambassadors, a high school eco-ed program.
