Billy Bag at PURE, London

I went to the PURE tradeshow in London this week and saw a sneak peak at Billy Bag's coming collection for Spring summer 2009.


The dark wooden frame in combination with the ethnic inspired print really works to create a modern hippy look.


I think of knitting needles when i see this bag. Its an evening bag with a twist.


This faded printed hobo makes a real impact, it looks like it has been left in a puddle but is part of the placement print. I think it really works.

Billy Bag Clutch

I went to the PURE tradeshow in London this week and saw a sneak peak at Billy Bag's coming collection for Spring summer 2009.


This gorgeous little clutch is so simple, but sophisticated and has the fun element with the ceremic hanging cherry-like adornments.


This is the back of the clutch / purse. Here is Billy Bags site, where you can see some more of their lovely bags.

Kate Spade bags

Kate Spade Laminated wash bag series. Girly, but not too girly.




I like the branding badges on this bag, but have a distinct 'Coach' look about them. Not sure about this shape but love the elongated clutch bag.

Plastic Shopping Bags

As more and more people move towards fabric recyclable shopping bags, these plastic ones will be phased out. So here is a collection of plastic shopping bags, soon to be extinct.
