I have recently been referred to as that girl who always has her own bag. I have definitely been referred to as worse. My reusable bag collection has continued to grow this year. The newest addition is from The Great Bag Company. The moment I saw this bag I was actually excited. Sounds kind of lame, but really this bag is gorgeous! I have used it everyday for the past week for all my shopping needs.
Being a sewer I can appreciate the time and care that was taken to create this handmade bag. The handles are cross-stitched and reinforced with cotton twill tape. It is extremely durable and can hold up to 40 pounds. Besides the attractive design, these bags have loops that hook onto the bag holder in the store. I have yet to use this feature, but have never seen another bag that offers this bonus. This bag folds nicely for storage, and the handle is the perfect length for me to carry comfortably over my shoulder.
Great Bags are available in six modern styles along with two patriotic designs. My friends are actually jealous of my attractive bag. You will be too.

Based on strong pro-environmental beliefs, Envirosax was founded to try to eliminate the use of plastic bags. They also promote moving to a much more environmentally friendly direction. This direction shows in their product. The bags that I used are sturdy and fold up nicely into a larger bag for easy storage. They are cute too.
The patterns are not fading, unlike the previous bags that I reviewed, but I still love those. Bags that conveniently fold up are perfect for girls who don’t want to carry around more things with them.
It seems now that Envirosax has an organic line including hemp, cotton and linen. That’s another step in the right direction. Check out their site and purchase some today.

This is the last review for the All Female Week. What do you think?
There is only one Mother Earth and Local Celebrity wants us to respect it. I love my mother, the Earth and cute hoodies, so what could go wrong with this combination? This soft, organic cotton with water-based inks is a keeper. It’s really comfortable, runs true to size and does not shrink (I tried). The mellow green color is nice and the black ink has a distressed, vintage look to it, which stands out on the green cotton. The Earth is not too big on the chest and the back logo is nicely sized as well.

Local Celebrity produces attention grabbing clothing that are bound to have people asking about them and the Respect Your Mother line fits that commonality that they are going for.
Celebrities and hipsters love their clothing and I think this hoodie is just too cute. You can buy Local Celebrity clothing online and select retailers.
My mom really likes it too and so should you.

Being a teacher and a student I am always willing to try any new school supplies. I have been using both the Pentel retractable Gel pens and highlighters. Both items come in a variety of colors. I find both useful and handy, especially since they retract. I don’t have to worry about them leaking ink or drying up.
They are made of recycled plastic materials and less of it than the standard pens. Many of the products actually are refillable, such as the highlighters and markers.
Mike really likes the liquid gel ink and he’ll be reviewing that soon, but in the meantime, check out Pentel’s new line called Recycology.

The Ethletic Sneakers are made from fair trade and sustainable materials such as sustainable harvested rubber. They are converse-looking low tops that are cute enough for me to try. I wore them for an entire day of shopping. After a few hours I felt the lack of arch getting to me. I toughed it out and did not resort to changing into my spare pair. I have since only worn these for an hour or two. I think that these flat shoes would be much more comfortable with arch insoles and will definitely give them another chance. They are cute, and green—who could ask for much more?

This is my first post and part two of the all female week, leave some feedback!
The past few weeks I have kept various reusable bags in the trunk of my car for my frequent grocery store and Target trips. However, I never remembered to bring any of them inside with me, until these three were added to my collection. Not only do they fold up easily, the designs are appealing. The Green World Bags have definitely decreased my garbage bag collection—but I am not complaining about increased closet space.
The bags are sustainable and re-useable. They are designed to withstand the weight of 2-3 plastic bags and then fold up for easy storage. The designs are silk-screened nicely and they are pretty too. There is a bonus feature as well, the extra bottom piece that adds to the base of the bag for double support. I see one issue with the bag, however. The silk-screen, after a few heavy uses, is starting to peel off and become flakey.
