Fashion Friday: Ecoist M&M Purse + {Giveaway}

Do you ever wonder what would happen to all of the M&M wrappers once you eat the candy?  Maybe you don’t, but imagine if someone took them all and made a purse out of them.  Well there is a company called Ecoist that takes recycled items and makes them into gorgeous purses, and you guessed it they have a entire collection of purses made out of M&M wrappers.

I received the M&M Pouchette in the mail, and as soon as I took it out of the packaging I was more impressed with it then I thought I would be.  It is amazingly well made and of course really cute.

The coating Ecoist uses on the bag makes them stand up well and wipeable. The inside is lined with a wonderful thick fabric.  The strap is a leatherette that is the perfect length.

I immediately packed the bag up trying to figure out where I could go with it.  I can fit so much in this little bag.  I imagine it to be my new go to evening/date purse.

In the end I have a gorgeous unique eco-friendly bag made of M&M wrappers.  Who could ask for more?
