Although I thought that I had enough reusable bags, it's true that I don't have any market bags hand painted with French messages - and what could be more eco chic than French market bags? The Visez Vert Market Bag ($18) asks you to "aim green," and is illustrated with the Eiffel Tower and scrolls.

This generously-sized bag (14 inches tall) is excellent for small grocery loads or for trips to the drugstore for medicine cabinet essentials. And if you get it stained, no worries - the art is permanent, so you can wash it as much as is necessary.

Though I prefer to use cloth tote bags instead of plastic grocery bags, it always feels hypocritical to then fill those fabric totes with plastic produce bags. But until recently, the free plastic baggies were the only way to protect your fruit and keep your veggies from getting battered.

Today, however, I was excited to discover these Eco Bags Reuseable Produce Bags. The set of four bags ($14) includes two lightweight produce bags and two net sacks made from organic cotton. Not only will they cut down on landfill waste, but the eco bags are also washable, so you don't have to worry about them getting too grimy over time.
