Win It: Aster + Sage.
The work of Linda Yesline of Aster + Sage pairs quality recycled materials with simple, clean lines to create these great fabric bags. I’m a big fan of her work, so I’m pumped to announce that this week’s giveaway is sponsored by Aster + Sage! Linda is giving away not one, but two bags to one lucky reader – one to keep and one to share with someone special.
To Enter, Tell Me:
1. Who would you give the second bag to?
2. Your email address to be notified should you win (those who do not will be disqualified)
3. And do it all before Monday, November 2 at 9am CST. This giveaway is only for those who live in the continental US.
Best of luck!
Posted In bags, wear it, win it

1. I would give the second bag to my "bestie" Elizabeth who is a conservation/social policy specialist. This week she takes the GRE as the first step in going back to school for her PhD and I know she'd appreciate such a beautiful bag as a reward for her hard work.

I would give the 2nd bag to my friend who also happens to be my boss. It's been crazy for us at work lately and I think she could use a little something that's just fun!

October 26, 2009 at 9:18 pmThese are so bold and beautiful. I love the colors she chooses.
But hm… I would probably keep the baby one, and I would give the other to my youngest sister who is in 7th grade. Middle school is a tough time… I think the bold colors are just hip enough to make her happy.

October 26, 2009 at 10:16 pmI would give the second bag to my best friend, Em. She has had the most horrible year ever (with a death in her family and her own diagnosis of breast cancer) and is slowly trying to get better and think positive. Em lives in France and is coming home to Canada for Christmas (I can't wait to see her!) I'd love to send her this bright little bag to pack all her makeup/toiletries in for the journey home. A dash of colour and a bit of fun could be just what the doctor ordered!

October 26, 2009 at 10:41 pmI would give the second bag to my hero and best friend Hana. To see what she has been through and the grace she has carried herself with every day shows me I can make it through me measly problems.

October 26, 2009 at 11:37 pmI'd give the second one to my lovely mother. She does so much without asking anything in return, but I know she appreciates gifts. She'll really love these as well!

October 27, 2009 at 12:00 amI have so many bags, I would probably give both away to be honest, although the yellow one is so pretty. At the very least, I would give one of them to my new niece (new by marriage, not birth) who has slowly been developing an appropriate (read: high) love for bags of wonderful design!
Jenn
October 27, 2009 at 12:12 amI would give it to my sister. She never buys anything new for herself and she works so hard.

October 27, 2009 at 12:28 ami'd let my little sister pick one next time i see her. we don't get along very well, so i think she (and my mother) would appreciate the gesture… especially since she's obsessed with using recycled materials AND bags.

October 27, 2009 at 1:37 amWhat fun and bright bags!!! I love it!
I have to say that I have one friend (Miss L. Bush) who
would truly jump over the moon for one of these bags! And she'd be even more thrilled to get a gift when it wasn't her birthday or Christmas!
Yay for cool stuff!

October 27, 2009 at 2:11 amMy best friend Julia is a hip, spunky, tom-boy-ish girl who is always forgetting her cell-phone and keys and everything else at my place when she leaves because she has just never found a purse she likes. This, however, she would like and oh boy, it would be hers.
Becky
October 27, 2009 at 2:40 amOoh I love these! I would give the second bag to my best friend – she taught me about how to use small bags in my big purse to help keep everything organized!

October 27, 2009 at 1:44 pmI would definitely share with my friend Arun. Not only is she a major sweetheart, but she is into all things sustainable and repurposed. At one point she was designing repurposed clothing/accessories, the proceeds of which went to a girl's school in Nepal. Talk about awesome!

October 27, 2009 at 4:21 pm1. I would give the second bag to my little sis. I’m planning a wedding and she lives out of town – she’s been so helpful in the ways she wants to be involved and this would be such a lovely way to show her I appreciate her kindness (plus it’s perfectly her style!).

October 27, 2009 at 5:39 pmLove the bold designs and colors on these bags. And the fact that it's made out of recycled products is amazing!
I would definitely give the second bag to my older sister. She needs something bright to catch her eye so that she always knows where the important things are. It's funny how tolling being pregnant and having a 2 year old is on the mind!

October 27, 2009 at 6:21 pmI would give the second bag to my friend Connie, who is from London. We're in school together and while she's here, there's nothing she likes better than going to Target. It's her most favorite store, and the bag almost looks like the logo! That way, she can take a bit of the States (and me!) home with her when we graduate.
Thanks!

October 27, 2009 at 7:03 pmWhat great bags!! I'd give the second one to my dear best friend Amy. She just graduated air traffic control school and is driving cross country as we speaking to move back home! She deserves a treat like this!

October 27, 2009 at 10:08 pmWhat a cute giveaway! Thanks for introducing us to this shop, I'm definitely into this 🙂
I'm excited that the winner gets two bags instead of one because I would gift the second bag to my friend Piper in Seattle. We are on different coasts now and hardly see her but when we meet or call each other, it feels like we are still those girls from high school chatting about anything, except a little more grown up. I miss her and the bag would be a lovely surprise for her 🙂

October 31, 2009 at 7:54 amhi! I would for sure give the other bag to my friend wendy. she is a single mom of two kids as of last week. i have been at her house everyday, and it seems like chaos. i am too a single mom, but since she is new to this world… i feel like this bag would help her feel a little "together"… plus she and i always buy each other bags when we see them.
i love this.

November 1, 2009 at 9:32 pmI love the colors of these bags and the simple designs.
I would give the other bag to my best friend in Houston, who I hardly get to see. We use to buy matching things when we were younger (we wanted to be twins, hah!) and this would be a nice wink to that.
