The lovely Lauren Conrad has introduced a new range of eco-friendly accessories and travel products and we’re very impressed. The Hills star has teamed up with Blue Avocado to create XO(eco), a great new range featuring a shopper, toiletry bag, detachable pouches, a lunch case, and a travel bag designed especially for your hair straighteners. Made from recycled plastic bottles, each item is available in a series of pretty colours and adorable prints, and we can’t wait to get our hands on them.

/ Love the trend (not the spend) /
/ Do it in public (not the car/plane) /
