The Bite:
imageHello, Heather Heron hemp handbags. These babies get top marks from fashionistas (more than we can say about the hemp necklaces we used to braid in high school). Locally stitched by LA artisans out of naturally dyed organic hemp and detailed with hemp-silk lining, Heron's line of simple-but-refined clutches and totes will last through the seasons and trends. And unlike leather bags, hemp is biodegradable; it's also pesticide-free, requires much less water than other plants, and produces three times more fiber per acre than cotton. We can't keep our hands off the Acacia pleated purse - guess handmade hemp's a hit, honey.
Wanna Try: 
Heather Heron. Clutches start at $180.

Cocktail Fact

Betsy Ross sewed the first American flag out of hemp sailcloth.

Small Changes Add Up

If 10,000 LA Biters opt for a hemp bag instead of a conventional cotton one, we'll avert the weight of 410,256 lipsticks in pesticides.
