Maybe you've seen accessories made from former food bags and thought, "eh." I had. Now that there are so many recycled bag options, there's no need to sacrifice quality construction with a bleeding heart purchase. In Paris, I found a sweet coll.part wallet to replace a too-loved vintage one. Coll.part derives from "collection particulière", and its unique pieces for men and women are crafted from salvaged rice and food bag cloth in Cambodia by women in need of work and/or a place for their children to learn. Particularly smart. :: coll.part
