Emily Maynard’s tribal hippie bag

· August 3, 2012 · By Dana Weiss ·

I don’t think I’ll be able to jump off the Emily Maynard bandwagon any time soon. I know it’s a small picture of it, but could you ID the bag on Emily’s lap in this picture from her trip to Africa with Jef (or a similar bag)? Thanks so much! – Ellen

If you’ve been following Possessionista for any period of time, you may know I’m a big of a boho handbag hoarder. I have quite the collection of jadeTribe and Precious Hands bags, made from fair trade textiles from Southeast Asia, creating jobs and income for women.

I suspected early on that Emily Maynard’s bag in Ghana might have been a local find.

But I was wrong.

It turns out Emily’s bag is actually the jadeTribe Elizabeth bag, an amazing Texas based company that buys fair trade textiles and makes these beachy, hippie bags that I simply can’t get enough of.

And based on the number of you asking for Emily’s crossbody messenger bag, I’m not the only one.

ETA: For those asking, I belive these are the boots. Or these.

Oh I don’t know anymore.

Ladies from JADEtribe, is Emily's bag from old collection as her patterns are different? (although the other messenger bags are cute too!) Are some of her bracelets from jadetribe too? Dana, Thank you a lot to find this bag!! xo
