It's pretty common knowledge that we're addicted to accessories. Old school fashion wisdom tells you to take one thing off before leaving the house, but you know what? We're all about piling it on. The more the merrier!

The only exception is when you find a single item that is so great, it totally steals the show—like the lovely and unique bags at Rising Tide Fair Trade.

While we will probably still wear clothes with our handbags, the prints and patterns featured on Rising Tide bags make them bold enough to define an entire look. Featuring fabrics made by artisans around the globe, Rising Tide has a wide variety of styles to choose from. Take, for example, the Kantha Collection Hobo, which is inspired by India and has been featured in Marie Claire magazine and in the film Eat, Pray, Love. Or if you're looking for something a little smaller, check out the Envelope Clutch from the Zola & Zaria collection. Our personal favorite is the Safi Clutch, with it's muted geometric print and bold gold piping.

Founded by Virginia Dooley and Nicole Jones, a pair of world travelers who bonded over heir obsession with exotic textiles, every piece at Rising Tide is (as the name might have implied) Fair Trade certified and Green America approved.
