The hype behind this simple yet creative eco-friendly creation from Anya Hindmarch is incredible and be warned demand is high! The “I’m not a plastic bag goes on sale today and if you’re looking to get your paws on this re-useable shopping bag which retails at £5 each then get down to your nearest Anya Hindmarch store quick time, or visit wearewhatwedo.
Now personally I love this bag and I adore Hindmarch even more for designing it, but I do wonder if like every other “must have everyone is dying to get one because of hype rather than the genius of the design. Its been promoted endlessly with reports of Lily Cole, Erin O’Conner and Keira Knightley seen bag in hand and the sceptical side of me wonders if they forked out their fiver, or if they received the bag as a gift. Either way as a result of the celebrity endorsement the bags were going for £200 on ebay. Madness! While it is a cute alternative to the plastic bag, there are and have been loads of stylish eco-friendly bags on the market for a while now so what makes this one better than the rest?

[...] Anya Hindmarch (handbag designer, famous for the “I’m not a plastic bag” tote) has been targeted for the fourth time in just six months by the infamous smash-and-grab gang. Understandably she is not a happy bunny, sending out a warning to the thieves Anya said, “Just you wait, I’ve got a few tricks up my sleeve and next time you won’t be so lucky.” [...]
[...] You’d have to be living under a rock somewhere not to notice that “going green” has become somewhat of a fad. Yes, since the very first paparazzo lens caught a celeb toting her “I’m not a plastic bag” bag, appearing to do the right thing for the sake of our Mother Earth is what’s hot. It is pretty difficult not to follow suit, I must admit. I mean, I’ve been a recycler and I don’t by styrofoam but I’m not at my local organic supermarket seeking out organic beef and milk, either. I am certain these products are better for me but at the same time, I’ve been eating high quality non-organic foods up ’til now and so far, so good. [...]

thanks!
When I see young females quibble over a piece of overpriced canvas in the name of fashion I can see exactly why sustainably is unachievable. Yes, they are made from hemp and they are “not a plastic bag” and that may be a step in the right direction, but the lengths people will go to get them coupled with the money they will shed for a piece of questionable fashion defies any environmental sentiment. They are truly not in it for environmental gains but for street credential gains and the yearning for the coverted “oh like, wow, you have one of those bag’s” comment from their friends. To then retrospectively claim that it is environmental decision is inswlting to us and perhaps your own intelligence. Now unfortunately this post isn’t so much about being green as is it about young women yearning beauty, fashion, glamour, pomp and fashion respect. Is that all you seek? And you wonder why you can’t find a decent man that wants to stick around. Where is the knowledge and conversation to keep us interested. Oh that’s right, it stops dead in it’s track while we you stare at the next shop window, looking at the next hot dress and your reflection at the same time. Look at all the energy you women are going to for a piece of canvas. It probably wouldn’t cover the energy used to make the thing.
