Almost Dressing Like A French Woman

August 14, 2009

Picture 2

I love Joanna’s posts on dressing like a french woman. However, since I’m shapped more like a croissant than a baguette these striped Baggu bags ($4-$6) are as close as I get to french chic.  I ordered one regular sized and two baby Baggu bags and have been jaunting around town feeling quietly chic.  The baby bags are great for fruits and vegetables (a round watermelon fits perfectly!), as a sweet little handbag, as a wine bottle tote.  The bigger bag holds grocieries, the little bags, flowers from the flower market.

Ooh, these are awesome! What a cute design. And, PS, you’re no croissant, lady! xo

I love these! I need to get some of the smalls, because using those very thin plastic bags to put fruit in kills me.

I can’t resist stripes in any form so I think it’s just a matter of time before a few of these make their way to my house. And I feel more like a croissant than a baguette myself these days! Love that comparison! :)

I have three regular striped bags and use one probably more every day. I love them!

I am so tempted to get these stripey ones too, my other ones are lasting fine though so I have no excuse!
