MyEARTH360 ~ It’s in the Bag! {Review & Giveaway #9}

MyEARTH360 began from a mother’s concern over the amount of waste generated at her son’s school from a water bottle policy and extra curricular activities. She took it upon herself to create a campaign featuring kid friendly reusable water bottles featuring the mantra,  I Count for My Earth. The program has been a hit in getting the green message to kids and became the starting block for myEarth360. Visit I Count for My Earth to find out more about this green campaign for schools.

MyEARTH360 has plenty of eco friendly handbags to choose from and every red and green bag sold will plant a tree! l got the chance to check out the English Retreads Cruiser. If you aren’t already familiar with the company English Retreads, these bags are actually made from used inner tubes supplied by truck stops. They are fashionable, extremely durable and oh so easy on your conscious knowing your bag is made from re-purposed material.

The cruiser is a smaller sized bag that easily fits your essentials but you won’t be weighed down with a lot extra. My favorite features is how comfortably it fits on my shoulder the overall trendy look.  Because of what this bag is made of, I’m sure it comes as no surprise that there are no extra pockets or organization within the bag although there is a sturdy snap in the center to keep your contents inside.  Because it doesn’t hold a lot I found it wasn’t as necessary anyway.

The English Retreads Cruiser is the perfect bag for day or night and is sure to draw attention!  To keep it looking new, simply clean it with Armor All or other car cleaner. If you like this, be sure to check out the other English Retreads bags available at MyEARTH360.

If you are looking for an everyday bag this ecoist Jute Handbag might be just the thing for you! Would you believe this modern and simplistic quilted bag is made from vegetable fiber and hand dyed in 100% vegetable products? I didn’t even know that was possible!

Check out this bright and fun green ecoist Diva Clutch. Wouldn’t this be perfect for a night on the town or just dinner with friends? You’ll find two different sized weaves which create this sleek look! It is actually handmade from recycled wrappers and food packages. Can you believe it? This clutch features a magnetic close and is self lined.
