Love Hackney Shopping bags

I just picked one of these lovely little local tote bags up from my fave pet shop in Stoke Newington, Paws and Purrs (where I also groom doggies) love the design and for a good cause...

The Love Hackney tote bags have been designed for the campaign by Hackney based fashion designer James Long, who has presented works at London Fashion Week and is known internationally with his clothing being worn by Pharrell Williams, Usher and London-based rapper Tinie Tempah.

“Living and working in Hackney means I spend a lot of time here and I am proud to support the amazing local businesses and people that make Hackney what it is. The mix of people and styles is a constant source of inspiration, it's a place that is constantly moving and evolving. It feels like an exciting neighbourhood to live and work in and I love it.”
