Better Than Basic Black

Matt & Nat Camden

Why It's Good: Every purse collection needs a basic black — it's the foundation of fashion. Last season Yves Saint Laurent redefined the black bag with croc-embossed leathers (tsk, tsk), reminding everyone that noir is never boring. With as much or more innovation, Matt & Nat designed a bag that looks like it's constructed from Japanese paper. Delicate antique hardware serves its purpose while complementing the beautiful texture. This sturdy and classic bag holds everything—it has an external pocket on the front and a place for your cell phone and keys. 

Why It's Green: Try foregoing animal products for 30 days. That's the challenge that spurred the founding of Matt & Nat, a company that strives to create fashionable vegan accessories using no animal products. This bag is made with vegan (or faux) leather.
