Back in March, I had the opportunity to give away a pair of Keds Green Label sneakers. At that time, I was supposed to get a pair to test and review, but they never arrived. Well guess what?  UPS brought them to me today.
I was a big Keds girl back in the day. I would keep 2 pair in constant rotation so that I always had a clean white pair available. I had this trick were I’d soak one pair in a sink of bleach and water.  Eventually they’d disintegrate, as you might expect.

How sleek and slick is this bag? And it’s made out of candy wrappers!
You read that right–candy wrappers!

This bag by Ecoist is made from 100% repurposed candy wrappers, newspapers, soda packages and soda labels. It was handwoven by Mexican fair trade workers and measure 11L x 6H x 2W.
It’s currently on sale at the Greenloop for $95.00!

Can you ever have enough coats? Maybe. But this one needs to be added to your collection.
The ‘Iris Coat’ by mother/daughter designing duo Rebe, is made out of 100% recycled cotton and acrylic blend and has vintage trim.

I love the empire waist and the shawl collar in the design. It’s a classic coat, with enough quirk to give it personality. The fleece lining will keep you warm and toasty as the weather cools down.
It’s available for $196.00 from BTC Elements.

This bag is modern, chic and a little bit avant-garde, but still completely functional.

The best part? It’s made out of reclaimed carpet tiles and scrap wood. Who knew that renovating your house would be so inspirational? I told you designers get inspired by weird things!

Each bag is custom made, so if you get aggressive and contact them, you can choose the carpet and handle style yourself. Warning: the bag is limited by the resources they have on hand. Leftover carpet doesn’t grow on trees.
These bags are $25.00 and you can get yours, or contact the seller, through Etsy.
