Green Celeb Style: Vanessa Minnillo

by Erin on July 24th, 2007

Nahui Ollin’s candy wrapper handbags are a hit with celebrities. The bags, designed by Olga Abadi, are made through an ancient Mayan binding technique.

Several celebrities have been spotted carrying these bags, including Joely Fisher, Sophia Bush, Kristen Bell, Kristin Chenoweth and Vanessa Minnillio. Check Vanessa out, showing off her bag at the Think PR & Caravan UpFronts in New York City recently!

The bags are handmade from hundreds of candy wrappers and soda labels. They are then individually bound together, which makes every bag completely unique.

The bags run from $28.00 for a teeny coin purse to $210.00 for a full sized handbag. You can get yours from Fashion Flair.

    What a great idea! I’m going to start saving all of my candy wrappers and then see what I can come up with lol… but my first attempt, I probably won’t be showing to anyone! ;)
