Eco fashion handbag maker, Ecoist just launched their new Coke collection of kitschy handbags in sustainable styles.  The Limited Edition collection is upcycled from overrun and discontinued Diet Coke, Coke Zero and Diet Cherry Coke bottle labels.  Prices range from $22 to $98 for The Skinny, (at right).  Good to see that this discarded material is not winding up in landfills.
