Where To Find a Clear Handbag - Margo Paige - Sustainable Fashion

Hi There..... Are you into sustainable fashion? Have you ever seen or bought a clear handbag?

I am not saying we should all buy vintage. There are new sustainable fashion items you can buy. 😊

I thought it wouldn’t be bad for bloggers to set a good example, so a story around this clear handbag could be a great idea. 😎

Ok, I have another question for you. Don’t you just hate it when you spill something on your new handbag, and it’s damaged without repair? No matter how hard you try, the spot won’t come off. 😬

Oh yes, I’ve had this happen to me, and my clothes have had their fair share too. No need to worry, though, because spilling is what I do best. πŸ˜‚

Ok, maybe not the best, but I’m pretty good at it. Especially when we are eating out. If I dare to order something with a sauce, I can guarantee there will be stains after. πŸ˜‹

I’m not one to brag, but this is something I am better at than most. Hey, I am not suggesting there is no one better at it. Let me know if you are, I am desperate to know. 😏

High time to tell you some more about the clear handbag I received from Margo Paige in exchange for my honest opinion. 😍

About Margo Paige

I founded Margo Paige as a response to the moral dilemmas I encountered in my life. Although I've always had a passion for handbags and fashion, the industry itself clashed with my personal values. I observed a prevalence of people and brands indulging in excessive consumption of bags, clothing, and more.

In addition to the industry's wasteful practices, I couldn't ignore the frequent news stories highlighting poor labor conditions and environmental pollution within the fashion world. After delving into this issue, I uncovered some concerning facts:

- Research indicates that consumers bought 60% more clothing in 2014 compared to 2000.
- An astonishing 85% of textiles produced by the fashion industry end up in landfills every year.
- The fashion industry contributes nearly 10% of the world's annual greenhouse gas emissions and ranks as the second-largest water consumer among industries.

Terms like waste, excess, and negative environmental impact have become synonymous with the fashion industry, especially fast fashion.

As I witnessed other industries I cared about, such as food and events, taking steps to improve their practices, I felt inspired. Organics and Fair Trade products were becoming standard on supermarket shelves, while football games and concerts were adopting zero-waste policies and providing attendees with reusable options to reduce waste. This progress was encouraging.

However, the fashion industry, while showing some efforts from industry leaders, wasn't making the necessary strides to address the pressing social and environmental challenges of our time. I realized that I could contribute to the solution by establishing a handbag brand rooted in sustainability. For me, this meant creating versatile pieces that matched my lifestyle.

Our designs, like the transparent handbag that facilitates event access and seamlessly transitions to brunch or nightlife, were crafted with multifunctionality in mind. These pieces not only catered to various lifestyle needs but also embodied a commitment to minimizing waste, sustainable fashion, and timeless design.

Though the realms of sustainability and event bag guidelines are intricate, our mission is straightforward. Margo Paige produces sustainable, multifunctional, and stylish products that enable your lifestyle to align with your values.

Care

For the proper maintenance of your handbag, gently clean the product using mild soap or detergent combined with warm water. It's best to use a non-abrasive towel, such as a microfiber or soft cloth. Alternatively, anti-bacterial wipes can also be used. 

Sustainability

Clear Recycled PVC boasts impressive longevity and durability, effectively extending the lifespan of this handbag and preventing it from ending up in landfills prematurely.

Utilizing Recycled PVC not only conserves resources but also diminishes the need for virgin fossil fuel-derived materials, all while maintaining the same high-performance characteristics.

The incorporation of faux detailing not only enhances the aesthetic appeal but also aligns with principles of animal welfare.

Moreover, this handbag provides an end-of-life recycling solution, contributing to a more sustainable lifecycle.

Crafted with an eco-conscious approach, it is designed by women and produced ethically using eco-friendly materials.

My opinion on the clear handbag

As some of you know, I love to give you a head up about sustainable fashion, so this is a big plus if you ask me. 😍

Most of you know I am more the fall-type kind of chicken, but I wanted to point out to the spring chicks reading here that you might need this type of handbag to get into some festivals this summer. πŸ˜‰

Another big plus, as I mentioned at the beginning of this blog post, is that you can spill heaps of food on it without having to throw it in the waste bin. πŸ˜ƒ

However, there are some negatives about this clear handbag too. It is anything but safe from pickpockets, so you'd have to be very aware of this when you use it. 😞

The other problem is that you can't adjust the length of the large strap, but you can solve this by using the gold chain as a shoulder strap. 😊

Still, I think it looks pretty cool, and the size is good for festivals, events, or concerts. As you can see, it easily fits a small wallet, a cell phone, a pair of glasses, and some other minor items. 😍

Hope you like my blog.....Until next time.....Have a nice day

  10. Toen ik op de middelbare school zat had ik een (opblaasbare) doorzichtige tas. Geweldig vond ik hem. Nu ben ik er niet zo gecharmeerd meer van

  11. Looks interesting! I don't think I would feel comfortable using one though.. Some items are private and walking in a busy city might seem like an invite for pocketpickers to rob you.
