Thursday Shopping Board: Bag Lady

Let's face it...we've all got a little "bag lady" in us. Who doesn't love a new bag? We've got tons to choose from here at the roost, so this week's Shopping Board is highlighting five of our favorite bags:




1- FEED Projects FEED1 Bag | The iconic FEED 1 Bag is showing off its new makeover because we all know that Gray is the new Burlap! The original FEED 1 reversible bag was the first FEED bag designed by FEED CEO Lauren Bush Lauren. After 5 years and nearly 60 million meals provided worldwide, the new FEED 1 bag now comes in Gray! Each FEED 1 Bag in Gray will provide school meals to 1 child for 1 year. $70. (arriving in 2 weeks...reserve yours now!)

2- Flipped Bird Reversible Messenger | Super cute reversible bags that are happy, fun and funky! Use as a backpack, purse, shopping bag, laptop bag (you supply the padding) or whatever you choose to nest in it! These bags are made right here in the good old US of A. $56.

3- CatStudio Riviera Tote | These totes are the collaboration of catstudio & a non-profit society in remote Southern India that supports indigent women. They are made of a cotton/jute blend, and are hand-woven on special looms.  They feature intricacies only possible with skilled Human Hand. $79.

4- Crooked Oak Burlap Bag with Bicycle Tire Trim | This bag is really one of a kind! Made from recycle burlap coffee bags. This bag features 2 pockets on the exterior that are perfect for placing your everyday items. What really makes this bag stand out from the crowd are the recycled bicycle parts that finish off the exterior. Snaps are set against road bicycle tires and inner tubes to give them extra durability. The handle is made from bicycle inner tubes, and stitched to allow the rubber to have some play but not too much. Finally mountain bike tires have been cut down to make the most unique tread you have ever seen on a handbag! $65.

5- Blue Q Recycled Shopper | These are a long-time best-seller for us. They are made of 95% recycled woven polypropylene, which makes them super-durable. We have so many styles of this bag, you could buy one for every bag lady in your life! $13.50.
