Looking for a cute way to replace your plastic shopping bags? Well, there’s a bag out there for you no matter what your personal style is. Here are some of the eco shopping gems of Etsy to get you started in your hunt:

Retro
Retro chicks need to get their hands on this tote with customisable retro-style lettering. If you’re looking for something that’s really retro though, then go for an old fashioned crocheted net bag, updated here in neon green.
Lux
What could be more lux than a monogrammed shopping basket? We also like this colourful tote with vintage styling from Modern Vintage Market. Shabby chic at its finest. Their Swedish King Stamp bag also gets top style marks.
Whimsical
If you’re more of a mittens and handknits kind of girl, then a whimsical shopping bag is for you. How about trying some adorable mushrooms on for size. And this simple bag with Oh Darling, Lets Be Adventurers written on it as a bit of an artschool vibe, while this canvas bag with an applique bird on it also has a lot of indie charm. Plus you can request it in different sizes. We really like the leather handles and lining!
Environmental
Using canvas bags just not eco friendly enough? Upcycling (recycling old materials into something better) is for you. Take a gander at this bag made out of old t-shirts by TNTees. Sarakaycow makes shopping bags out of discarded duraweave bags, like her catfood tote bag.
