I love bringing my own bags to the grocery store and farmer’s market, and I’m a sucker for recycled bags (I’ve got quite a collection), especially those that are created for a worthy cause.  I discovered this tote on the InStyle magazine blog (which is in my WordPress reader). The tote was designed by Kristen Bell, who you may remember as the voice on Gossip Girl and also way back when as the star of Veronica Mars.  The sale of each bag provides life-saving malaria treatment to someone in need.  made with 100% golden jute fiber, with a waterproof lining, and consists of vegan and recycled materials.

At $28, the first run flew off the shelves, but they are accepting pre-orders, which will take 8-12 weeks because they are sustainably handcrafted by artisans in Bangladesh.  I’m placing my order! For yours shop here

Happy Shopping!
