Handbag addiction is a problem that affects many Americans (we don't have exact statistics, but trust us, we know). One way to feel better about your clutch compulsion is to opt for planet-healthy bags. Designer Helen E. Riegle uses fabrics like organic cotton, avoiding the heavy pesticides used for conventionally grown cotton, and leather-like natural rubber to create stylish bags that are easy on the eyes and on the earth. Riegle's Lily tote was inspired by interlocking trumpet lilies: It's practical enough for day and stylish enough to take with you to dinner. $129 at Her-design.com. Mama need a brand-new eco-bag?
