XS Baggage for Glamorous Groceries
When actress-designer Hilary Shepard designed XS BAGGAGE, re-usable grocery bags made from excess fabric, it was only proper that her actressy friends should lend their support. Daryl Hannah, Rosanna Arquette, Donna Karan, Anna Farris, Heather Graham and Mariel Hemingway all carry their XS Baggage with pride.
The bags' biggest advantage, they say, is that the bags fold up and fit easily into your pocket or purse, so you don't even need to remember to bring them with you when you grocery shop.
Shepard used extra fabric from a one-of-a kind purse collection she was designing for Donna Karan’s Urban Zen line, made from re-purposed vintage materials.
XS BAGGAGE bags are $19.99, buy here. A portion of all sales goes to green charities. A special line of XS BAGGAGE for Dr Jeffery Sachs' Omnipeace charity can be found at Kitson stores.
