Envirosax is constantly creating new styles patterns, the latest being the Slingsax and MiniSax.  The SlingSax is a hands free messenger style bag, made from recycled polyester that rolls up small to carry wherever you go. It has inside and outside pockets and an adjustable strap.  It’s practical, functional, and of course, eco-friendly! Price: $13.50.

The MiniSax is made from the SlingSax waste fabric. (You have to love how Envirosax is committed to reusing material.)  It’s a small reusable lunch bag that easily folds up to fit in your back pocket. There’s even a pocket to hold a coffee cup!  Envirosax bags are extremely durable yet lightweight. Price: $4.50.

I have grown to love Rebecca Minkoff handbags, so I was excited to learn of the exclusive partnership with Saks! In May, Saks Fifth Avenue will launch a luxury Rebecca Minkoff collection available in stores across the country.

“I chose to partner with Saks to launch my collection line because of the timeless luxury and superior quality the store represents,” said Minkoff. “It is an exciting honor to join the list of exclusive luxury handbag designers available at Saks Fifth Avenue. Saks customers are already familiar with the current Rebecca Minkoff line, and have been very supportive over the years. I am hoping to not only provide my existing customers with a more luxurious option, but to also tap into a new set of young Saks shoppers who purchase designer bags for the style and quality, not just the label.”

The Collection features exotic skins, customized rose gold hardware and multi-strand shoulder straps that mimic long necklaces. Rebecca’s signature ‘Morning After Bag’ gets an edgy makeover with studs and exaggerated buckle details. Several new shapes will also be introduced such as drawstring bucket bags, oversized classic totes, and side-saddle messenger bags with zig zag patchwork skins and new tonal plays on color.

MATT & NAT have launched a new website along with a new line, MATT by MATT & NAT. The collection consists of affordable bags and accessories priced under $150. The bags have simple silhouettes, vibrant colors and are very versatile! Best of all, they are made of vegan leather with 100% recycled lining. I love the use of perforated leather. Below are a few of my favorites.

Linea Pelle will keep me as a fan as long as they continue making beautiful, functional bags. The Joey Studded Hobo is one of the new styles for spring and is available in five colors – black, cobalt, espresso, sand and zucca. It’s made of washed Italian leather which gives it a very soft, casual look. There are inside zipper and utility pockets, along with a cotton zebra print lining. My top choice is the zucca. Which is your favorite?

The mission of Envirosax is to help protect the environment for tomorrow’s generation by providing an eco-friendly alternative to disposable shopping bags that have caused so much damage to the environment worldwide. “Incorporating recycled plastic bottles and other plastic waste into fabric is the next evolutionary step in our industry. Not only do we stop the wasteful use of one-use items with our products, we help to reuse what is already out there polluting the planet.”

Two new Envirosax products, the SlingSax and MiniSax, feature the new Envirosax RPET fabric. Made from certified Envirosax RPET fabric Envirosax RPET is a mix of 55% flat filament polyester & 45% Repreve® polyester (Unifi inc). The 45% Repreve® is in fact 100% recycled content. Tested and certified for recycled content by the only company in the world able to accurately do this – Scientific Certification Systems (SCS).
