Reusable handbags are no longer plain and boring; there are many companies out there who are designing great bags for multiple functions.

Forget Grandma’s old gingham totes and don’t even think about getting all those plastic bags from the grocer’s. Billions and billions of plastic bags are littering our planet, choking innocent animals and congesting our natural ecosystems. We can actually reduce waste by buying our very own reusable bags!

I decided to purchase eco-friendly bags, which are fairly inexpensive, and local stores like Target and Trader Joe’s offer adorable bags for a few bucks. The internet also has some adorable ones that are fairly priced.

Mixed Bag Designs offer 12 different styles in their website, at $7 each. It carries up to 50 pounds and can be carried over your shoulder and guaranteed to last three years. I purchased a few from them, and the shipping and service was superb. One ended up having a minor defect, and they sent me a new one, no questions asked.

Paper Nor Plastic also offer a similar bag, but it’s made of polyester lined with vinyl, which keeps it waterproof. It is shaped just like a standard paper grocery bag, but can be reused over and over again.
