<p>This <a href="http://heatherheron.bigcartel.com/product/california-street-laptop-sleeve" target="_blank">laptop sleeve</a> was one of my faves from the <a href="http://concreteflower.se/2010/12/17/environment-heather-heron-trunkshow/" target="_blank">Environment by Heather Heron</a> collection that I got a preview of the other night. Unfortunately it does not quite fit my 15&#8243; MacBook (that size is still in the works, so stay tuned).</p>
<p><a href="http://concreteflower.se/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/CF_101220_bagsbags2.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-4406" title="CF_101220_bagsbags2" src="http://concreteflower.se/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/CF_101220_bagsbags2.jpg" alt="Concrete Flower: 101220: Bags, More Bags &amp; Swedish Army Fabric" width="640" height="427" /></a></p>
<p>I also found out that it&#8217;s made from recycled <em>Swedish</em> army fabric!! See the three crowns emblem there? So awesome. That, of course, made me love it even more.</p>
<p><a href="http://concreteflower.se/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/CF_101220_bagsbags3.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-4407" title="CF_101220_bagsbags3" src="http://concreteflower.se/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/CF_101220_bagsbags3.jpg" alt="Concrete Flower: 101220: Bags, More Bags &amp; Swedish Army Fabric" width="640" height="427" /></a></p>
<p>The laptop sleeve could work as a clutch too, just sayin&#8217;&#8230;</p>
<p><a href="http://concreteflower.se/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/CF_101220_bagsbags4.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-4408" title="CF_101220_bagsbags4" src="http://concreteflower.se/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/CF_101220_bagsbags4.jpg" alt="Concrete Flower: 101220: Bags, More Bags &amp; Swedish Army Fabric" width="640" height="760" /></a></p>
<p>Touching, feeling and trying to send subliminal message to Santa.</p>
<p><a href="http://concreteflower.se/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/CF_101220_bagsbags5.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-4409" title="CF_101220_bagsbags5" src="http://concreteflower.se/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/CF_101220_bagsbags5.jpg" alt="Concrete Flower: 101220: Bags, More Bags &amp; Swedish Army Fabric" width="640" height="427" /></a></p>
<p>The people who showed up were all extremely well-dressed. Love that.</p>
<p><a href="http://concreteflower.se/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/CF_101220_bagsbags6.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-4410" title="CF_101220_bagsbags6" src="http://concreteflower.se/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/CF_101220_bagsbags6.jpg" alt="Concrete Flower: 101220: Bags, More Bags &amp; Swedish Army Fabric" width="640" height="760" /></a></p>
<p>I really dig this giant green bag. I always carry so much stuff around me that if I had this bag, I would totally fill it up with stuff, which, I think, would not be so good for my back. But, it would be perfect for some yurt camping in the California desert!</p>
<p><a href="http://concreteflower.se/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/CF_101220_bagsbags7.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-4411" title="CF_101220_bagsbags7" src="http://concreteflower.se/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/CF_101220_bagsbags7.jpg" alt="Concrete Flower: 101220: Bags, More Bags &amp; Swedish Army Fabric" width="640" height="800" /></a></p>
<p>Me and the lovely Heather Heron. Fringe and fluff.</p>

<p>The lovely <a href="http://www.heatherheron.org/" target="_blank">Heather Heron</a> has designed a <a href="http://www.goodlifer.com/2010/12/heather-heron-debuts-second-collection-for-environment/" target="_blank">second collection of bags</a> in collaboration with <a href="http://www.environmentfurniture.com/" target="_blank">Environment Furniture</a>.</p>

<p>All five bags are made from recycled army fabric.</p>

<p>They are rugged and delicious and make me feel like running off to live on a remote beach somewhere in California.</p>
<p><a href="http://concreteflower.se/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/CF_101217_hhenv_4.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-4360" title="CF_101217_hhenv_4" src="http://concreteflower.se/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/CF_101217_hhenv_4.jpg" alt="Concrete Flower: 101217: Environment by Heather Heron" width="640" height="440" /></a></p>

<p>I totally believe that all really good design is inherently sustainable.</p>

<p>These hot bags are the first pieces from recently launched brand <a href="http://www.theswaynyc.com/" target="_blank">The Sway</a>.</p>

<p>Founder Belinda Pasqua is on a mission to make recycling fashionable: <em>&#8220;if I can make clothing and accessories that rival non-recycled products  in design and quality, buyers will continue to purchase my brand, and we  will have more consumers buying green and not even even realizing it.  Its about integration, not segregation.&#8221;</em></p>
<p><em><a href="http://concreteflower.se/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/CF_101025_TheSway5.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-3689" title="CF_101025_TheSway5" src="http://concreteflower.se/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/CF_101025_TheSway5.jpg" alt="Concrete Flower: 101025: The Sway" width="640" height="480" /></a><br />

<p>I caught up with her to see where she gets her inspiration, how she went about starting her company, and what motivated her to do so.</p>
