Impulse Buy: Eco-Friendly Summer Totes

The result of architect Jennifer Silbert’s collaboration with handbag designer Lisa Siedlecki is this month’s must have.

Here’s an idea worth raising a frothy mug to: Architect (and Art Center instructor) Jennifer Silbert has collaborated with handbag designer Lisa Siedlecki to create Rewilder, a line of environmentally conscious bags made from filters used in the beer-brewing process. The lightweight yet durable material is ideal for the large utilitarian pieces, which are geared to casual outings. They’re also easy to clean—just rinse them with a hose. Cheers to that!
