I’m enjoying all these totally awesome prints out this summer.
This tote over at asos is just bright enough, with a simple but totally fun pattern. It’s big enough to put all your beach goodies in it, plus something to change into for that hot date later.
It’s on sale, too.
£20, down from £25

I like gigantic bags. Maybe not hte suitcase sized suckers that celebs are carrying around these days, but big totes and such.
This tote by Kit+Lili seems perfect for grabbing a bunch of stuff and heading out for the day. Love the ocean-colored print.
$128

I spotted this bag after the kind folks at Not Couture posted it. It’s got enough room for just about everything and will look perfect with all my hippy summer dresses.
$178. Urban Outfitters exclusive.

I finally got up off my butt and am taking yoga classes. So, of course, this is setting me off on a path of looking for stuff for yogis.
First off if a yoga mat bag. I’d wanted one before, but I’d never taken classes, so it wasn’t really necessary. Now it is. Lugging my mat around is no fun. Most yoga mat bags are pretty boring, with a simple tube or a duffel bag type look. Some get fancier and are work bags with straps or messenger bags, but those are out of my price range.
Here are two that I do like, mostly because they multi-task. You know how I love things that multi-task.
Made by TKUU is fashion defined. It’s a polyester bland fabric and can be made into a head wrap or a belt when it’s not toting around your bag. I think there are two pull ties that let you hold your mat in it. My worry is that it’s too trendy (working out is not a runway) and that it wouldn’t hold anything else. I’d like my bag to at least hold my keys.
I do love print and I could use it if my yoga phase ends.
Green blue only. $40 on sale from $60.
My second option is a little more earthy. The multi-tasker bag is made by Ashima. There are two little snaps on the ends that convert the bag in to a purse for everyday use. In side are pockets for your keys, ID and such.
I like the pretty boho print (you can get flowers or fish) and the usefulness of this bag. In addition, Ashima makes these bags out of recycled cotton and indigo dyes, which aren’t as harmful as chemical dyes.
Available in sunflowers and fish. $28.50.
So which should it be?

A long, long long time ago, I got an e-mail from Jamie. I was seriously remiss in posting this, but the honest truth is that I’m having some health issues which are impending my posting a little bit. More on that later.
Stowaway bags are really repurposed. Can’t you tell? They’re wifebeaters. It’s a great idea b/c these little tops are small, strong and well made. I think they’d look cute for the grocery store or even as a throw-it-all-in purse.
They come in three sizes (small, medium and large). ($6)

Serious. If I needed a purse, I would get this. But supposedly I’m budgeting right now, whatever that means.
So one of you, dear readers, needs to bid on this purse today. It’s green, vegan and at $39.99 at this second.

Seriously. This is about the umpteenth “I am green and proud of it” bag. Made by Scoop NYC and in conjunction with green cleaning makers Shaklee, this bag is 100 percent natural (that has no meaning to me) and comes with some Shaklee laundry detergent. The good part is 100 percent of the proceeds go to the Natural Resources Defense Council and Shaklee will plant a tree for each bag sold. ($28)

This is the best designed tote I’ve seen in a while. It’s got pockets and this great side zip pouch, so you won’t be digging around for your wallet when you need it. And it’s got great design, my favorite it this paperclip one. ($32)

I have a bunch of reusable grocery bags. Numerous ones from Trader Joe’s a bunch of Envirosax and some random canvas bags that have showed up one way or another. I spied these of Fred Flare today and thought they were fantastic. Instead of pretty designs or flowers, there’s a chihuahua and jelly beans. That’s awesome. Oh, and there’s a little zip pocket to put your cell in or your wallet, while you’re out at the market. ($30)
