Fashion Industry discussion, review, analysis, news, and information

This is a sponsored review... 

I am so happy to see that many businesses in the fashion industry are becoming more eco-conscious.  Ellen Degeneres recently did a show where she showed all the different types of eco-friendly products that are on the market today.  Now we can find clothing made of organic cotton and other interesting materials. 

I recently found out about a handbag company that makes purses from such things as sailboat sails, cigar boxes, and even movie billboards.  That's just a sampling of the long list of recycled items Eco-handbags.ca uses to make these unique pieces. 

Can you believe that this mini-handbag here is made from recycled truck inner-tubes?  Every bag you buy from them comes with an inner illuminating system that lights up when you open it. 

 

I really like this Botero-Kiwi handbag made from candy wrappers!  It has an interesting bubbly-shape and reminds me of a watermelon...

For those of you who need a carry-all to lug around necessities like notebooks, books or magazines, this would be the perfect tote.  This one was made with recycled art banners and is a work of art sitting on your shoulders!

Eco-handbags has a team of designers who contribute all these unique handbags and what I like is that they donate 1% of their sales to the natural environment.  Check out their blog at:  http://blog.eco-handbags.com/
