Accessorize goes fairtrade with butterfly bag
I love Accessorize for its cool, design-led bags, jewellery and hosiery so I was delighted to see that the brand has branched into fairtrade at last, starting with this funky, retro butterfly print tote bag and its hip cousin, the "I heart bags" bag.
The butterfly pattern looks a bit Bridget Riley to me, which gives it a bit of a 60s look. And best of all, it's made from 100% fair trade cotton, has a double handle for extra support in case you want to go on a mega-shopping spree, and costs just £12. [Via The Bag Lady]
