Eco-Friendly Bag For Mom and Baby

Michelle Smith — Sat, 25 Apr 2009 16:25:20 +0000

Hey, new mommies! Carry your baby necessities in eco-friendly style with the Ecobaby Baby Tote from Amy Michelle.

It’s made of recycled fabrics and recycled plastics in chic classic black with or without a world peace logo. Ecobaby is an over-the-shoulder tote, but it can easily be coverted to a backpack, or hung over your stroller, giving you easy access to compartments for bottles, diapers, wipes, or toys. It has a quick release binky holder and a washable changing pad for emergencies at both ends.

There’s no need for Mommy to carry her purse, because there are pockets for day planner, cell phone, comb, key ring, whatever your particular needs might be.

The bag measures 12.5 inches in length, 4 inches in width, and a height of 15 inches.

It’s light, generously-sized, good for you, baby, and the Earth.

Recycled Military Bag

This bag is a sexier version of all the military-styled bags you see out there. It’s made of military canvas tents and parachute fabric, so it’ll certainly last.

I like the rounded shape of this bag. Too many military bags are slouchy and square. It’s a new silhouette.

The straps and pocket are also made from recycled materials.

H 15″ x W 16″. $80

Matt & Nat Japanese Paper Bag

The bright magenta color totally makes this Matt & Nat bag for me.

It’s a vegan leather bag, with magenta lining and about a bajillion pockets. You’ve got one for your cell phone, two on the outside and other on the inside. There’s also a cute detachable keychain!

Matt & Nat bags are great for those concerned about leather and animal products. Everything they make is totally vegan, but amazingly stylish.

$245

Teich Scallop Clutch

admin — Fri, 25 Jul 2008 16:53:52 +0000

Although these are not veggie friendly clutches, they leather used here was vegetable tanned, so it’s definitely more conscious.

These clutches by Teich also have hemp in them and they look gorgeous. The scallop is very retro with a modern touch. I like oversized clutches for going out because they’ll actually hold all your stuff and you won’t be depending on your date’s (or friend’s) pockets to hold all your necessities.

$158, from $225.

Chic Splurge: Helene E. Riegle Bag

I want this tote bag! It’s classy enough to withstand all the seasons, the office and a dinner date. It’s functional too — it can accommodate most laptops and has tons of pockets for cables, files, magazines, cell phones, iPods, Blackberrys, make-up and whatever else you can think of!

It’s made of eco-friendly linen and trimmed with vegan leather. Inspired by the shape of calla lilies, you can get this bag in Oatmeal with Coral Rose Lining (pictured) or Black with Turquoise Lining!

It’s $209.00 from the Greenloop. A little pricey, but it’ll last and last and last…….
