Most women have a weakness for purses made from decadent materials like leather and snakeskin. While these are certainly fun to add to your collection, they aren’t very animal- or Earth-friendly. The Lily, made from US-grown organic cotton canvas and dyed with low-metal, low-sulfur and formaldehyde-free inks, is like a little bit of comfort food for your conscience, and it’s inspired by the silhouette of two trumpet lilies. Although it’s available in three colors, our favorite is the natural one with black trim and coral rose lining (it goes with nearly everything). The teal and magenta are fun, but not quite as refined.
