Hemp

White + Warren Gets Into the Handbag Business

Filed under: Handbags

Cashmere maker White + Warren has jumped on the handbag bandwagon with two neutral styles. Today we highlight The Hemp Traveler, a weekender bag. This practical bag (except for the color -- I see it getting dirty, quickly), has a hemp exterior and genuine pebble leather trim, and is fully lined with protective nylon. Also: detachable interior zip pouch for everyday essentials, five interior compartment pockets, interior and exterior zip pockets, a detachable shoulder strap, metal feet, and a detachable leather id tag/card holder. Although considered a weekender bag, the way handbag styles are headed in my neck of the woods (big, bigger, gigantic), this could just as easily be a city girl's daytime bag or commuter bag. 22" x 13" x 8", $595.

Zion Truffle Collection

Filed under: Dining

Who knew that you could "experience Rastafarian culture" through chocolates? The Zion Truffle Collection from Vosages is an exquisite collection that showcases some of the flavors of Jamaica with five unique flavor blends, shown above from left to right:

  • I-tal - Blue Mountain coffee, organic fresh coconut and dark chocolate
  • Selassie - pumpkin puree, Jamaican pepper, dark chocolate and organic roasted pumpkin seeds
  • Rasta - Appleton Estate rum, fresh ginger, white chocolate, organic hibiscus and sorrel flowers
  • Kaya - hemp seed nuts and milk chocolate
  • Zion - Red Stripe beer, dark chocolate and cocoa nibs

Because the truffles are made with fresh ingredients, including fresh cream, they only have a shelf-life of ten days, which should be more than enough time to polish off all 16 of the pieces that come in this collection. Price: $41.
