Feel Good Shop Smart

We always feel good at 'bragbags' when we are shopping but we get an extra boost when we know we are shopping ethically as well. With a Christmas shopping list a mile long we have been spending a lot of time checking out some great websites to help you with this task. Remember it’s better to give than to receive but picking yourself up a little something at the same time can’t hurt either.


'Bragbags' is a member of the Fair Trade Association of Australia & New Zealand. Fairtrade is about better prices, decent working conditions, local sustainability and fair terms of trade for farmers and workers in the developing world.

We've just been endorsed by the gorgeous AND ethically-based Blue Caravan site.

Blue Caravan is an ethical design market stocking contemporary handmade, fair trade and ethical products warmed by independent designers, artists and artisans. Don’t you love that word – warmed? It means beautifully finished, made with heart and bought directly from the designer/maker.
