What woman doesn’t love a great looking purse? I have seen so many gorgeous looking handbags out there but when it comes to being functional, they just don’t cut it. With the Holidays approaching, I’m sure you’re thinking of what to get that special someone or maybe what kind of gift you would love to receive for yourself. That’s where Maggie Bags™ comes in.
Maggie Bags™ are handbags that are made from car seat belt webbing. These seat belts are built to meet government safety standards to protect you in your car and since the standards are so high, millions of yards of seat belt material is rejected by car makers each year. Maggie Bags™ is able to use this material that otherwise would be thrown away and use them to make purses, totes and more. Maggie Bags™ remains committed to use the repurposed material whenever they can in their products.
I was asked to review the Cicily Tote by Maggie Bags™. It’s large enough for you, or your lady friend to put all of your (or her) necessities in, but small enough to be oh so cute, which is always important when it comes to bags! The Cicily Bag features the Maggie Bags™ signature lining and inside pockets to put all the small things you need to find easily, without having to empty your purse to find, like your cell phone or keys. It has a zippered pocket, along with a pocket just for your cell, and another for your keys. There are YKK zippers, as well as four nickel plated “feet” on the bottom, so that your purse doesn’t spill if you leave it open at home.
The Cicily Tote comes in several colors. I received the Dark Chocolate, but there is also Cranberry, Lime, Bullet, Clementine, Black, and Tuxedo Combo.
Maggie Bags™ offers a ton of bags and purses, along with Laptop Bags, and you can find the perfect bag on their site for that hard to buy for person on your Christmas list! If you know someone who loves bags, I highly suggest that you give the website a look! I have been super happy with my new purse and can tell that it will last a long time, which is really important to me. I would love to buy another purse in a brighter shade, and possibly a different style like the Campus Tote in Turquoise!
Head on over to Maggie Bags™ to take a look at all their beautiful handbags, plus you can also find them on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Youtube and Google+.

I love Maggie Bags and would so love to have one! They are so functional and yet unique enough to be stylish. And I LOVE that they are saving something from going to landfill!
md, VERY soon I will be having a giveaway. I know you are so good about entering & commenting so be on the look out for that 🙂
this is cute
They look very fashionable and sturdy — I love to buy green products. I hope that the giveaway happens soon…
Very cute.
Cute ! I love this! I don’t have any but wouldn’t mind adding one to my Christmas list!
I really like the look of this bag. I can’t tell what it is made of by looking at it. I think this is a great way to recycle.
What an interesting way to use car seat belts. I like it. I also love any way to recycle old stuff! I would definitely use this bag!
I’ve wanted one for so long (as I said above) and guess what? My husband said he will get me one for Christmas. Yipee!
I had not seen this shorter version of the Maggie Bag, but I do like it so much better than the huge Campus Bag. It is much more my style! This brown color is really cute. I could really enjoy carrying this around and love all the little inner compartments.
