Upgrade your old shopping tote

ARE you still using your Anya Hindmarch "I'm Not a Plastic Bag" tote?

If so, it's time to upgrade your shopping gear. The English fashion accessories designer has recently launched a new collection of six canvas reusable shopping totes, featuring illustrations inspired by the outdoor market of Provence.

Simple and chic by design, these artisanal totes are printed with whimsical drawings of their intended contents, including dairy, meat and poultry, fruit and veg, dry cleaning, laundry and shopping.

The washable, fabric totes are easily folded, sturdy and practical. Each bag features natural calf leather handles fastened by engraved metal hardware with a zippered pocket inside - a must-have for the environmentally savvy this season as well as an ideal gift for hostesses and gastronomic gurus.

Seeing the world's adulation of "it-bags," Longchamp has designed a series of cubic totes, featuring the same print design as the French house's real "it-bags," such as the Legende and the Cosmos bags.

The intriguing "Ceci est un IT BAG" collection in cotton and linen canvas also features the very beautiful leather handles found on the original ranges. Available in two colors - brick and ecru - there is a choice between three different sizes as well as a hand held clutch bag to complete the range.

With its bold statement, the bag will surely make people laugh. It is also big and practical enough to suit your needs from work to leisure.

The most luxurious shopping tote this season must be Chanel's Cambon shopping bag. Available in three sizes, the bags range from 11,600 yuan (US$1,700) to 23,800 yuan.

A highly sophisticated leather version of the French luxury house's coveted shopping bag, it is stamped with the "cult" address and logo that Chanel fans can't resist.

Of course, it would be coolest if you really use it as a shopping bag, aside from another handbag you are carrying, during this time of economic downturn.
