I've been seeing this Anya Hindmarch "I'm not a Plastic Bag", approx $6.75, everywhere. Apparently it is all the rage. It it quite cheeky and with all the talk about banning plastic shopping bags it is fashionably PC.

The latest in the Anya Hindmarch "I'm not a Plastic Bag" saga: the tote has been banned in China after several women were trampled yesterday in Hong Kong trying get ahold of the canvas tote.
Fakes are already beginning to proliferate; one Beijing-based dealer told The Times of London he expects to have almost 1,000 bags of the same size, weight and fabric as the real Anya Hindmarch tote by the weekend. Oh the craziness this bag has caused!

I was over at my friend's house and saw a case of Ziploc snack bags in her kitchen. They're sort of like regular plastic sandwich bags, except about half the size. I asked her what the deal was with her bulk buy and she said that she couldn't resist after seeing "Perfect For 100 Calorie Snacks" scrawled across the box.

Sometimes it seems as if getting ready to go to the beach takes up as much time as your beach excursion itself does. Whether you're spending time at a Summer beach house, or taking advantage of a sandy-beached lake, if you're going to be in the sun and surf all day, you don't want to forget anything essential. On the other hand, you also don't want to be too weighed down.

The canvas tote continues to evolve. It took off with Anya Hindmarch's I'm Not a Plastic Bag — remember the frenzy? — and has since taken all sorts of designs and personalities.

While Curly Bella shared her hilarious — to us now, not to her then — tale of creating a makeshift rain bonnet out of a plastic shopping bag post-blowout (like this woman), it's not a look she wants to do over. If you're really concerned about the best protection from drips and drops, umbrellas often fall short when the rain heads straight for your face.
Now entering: The Hood.

The second I remember to quit grumbling when I get a paper bag with no handles instead of the evil that is the plastic bag, the whole eco-mantra of choosing paper could be dumped on its head. One man, Stephen Joseph, is out to save the plastic bag. He's head of the campaign called Save the Plastic Bag, and he means business.
