Bags of Goodwill by Ami Kealoha



In time for the London Design Festival, and hot on the heels of Anya Hindmarch's successful/controversial I'm Not A Plastic Bag, 40 world-renowned designers have had a go at spicing up a standard shopper, and again, all for a good cause. From left to right are examples by Eero Aarnio, Barber Osgerby, Sebastian Wrong and Marcel Wanders. Along with the others, they can be seen at London store TwentyTwentyOne for the next few days. You can also bid for the one-off bags too, with the money going to the U.K.'s Fairtrade Foundation.

Baggu Stripes and New Colors
Since first writing about Baggu portable nylon bags, we've started paying more attention to similar concepts on the market. Countless versions preceded the Baggu and there will no doubt be countless imitators following, but the Baggu outdoes them on all fronts, not the least of which is their new colors and stripes. My strategy is to go brightly-colored so that my Baggu always pops...
