Big on Cute Reusable Shopping Bags

Baggu Reusable Shopping Tote and Pouch

It started with me finding a curiously tiny, pretty purse when I was at the stationery to get some notepads. I thought it was another one of those unnecessary accessory, like a pocket tissue pack case (why on earth do people use these things?) but then I realised that the cute pouches are held a generously-sized reusable Reisenthel Mini Maxi shopping bag! How nifty!

As much as I try to use reusable bags (the stiff types) when shopping for groceries, there were always days when I didn’t have one with me. Well, now I can carry a bag or two in my backpack, handbag or even in my pocket (these bags are very tiny when folded)! And the best thing is, they come in so many cool prints and colours.

This purple one above is from Baggu. Love the colour and how it looks like a normal plastic bag, only cuter! The colourful print Reisenthels below are the ones I fell in love with at the store!

Mom’s the Word
Mother’s Day Treats from Dean & Deluca

Dean & Deluca Mother\'s Day Cookies and Cakes

A gift-box of these red, pink and orange hand-decorated butter cookies that say “I Love Mom” is a sweet way to convey your love for Mummy dearest. Not into mushy words? Then this large pink purse bag, complete with handles, gold accents and zipper “created by a pastry chef who worked at some of the most famous pastry shops in Paris” looks like an instant hit.

I Love Mom cookies, $42, by Eleni’s for Dean & Deluca and Sweet Couture cake, $160, exclusively from Dean & Deluca.
