Possibly the Cutest Lunchbag Ever!

Ok, I’m a little freaky over lunch bags. It’s the whole hand bag obsession thing. You know, can’t resist them. Don’t deny it – I know some of you out there can relate (Marcia) ;).
Anyway – the KoKo Christy Lunch Bag is quite possible the cutest lunchbag to date! I think I have to get it. It’s all nylon with a zippered top and great end pockets for all the little extras. And it’s fully insulated – Keeps your hots hot or your colds cold!
Shoot – I’d even use this as a purse! No more melted makeup or chocolate on hot days, right?
They measure 11.5″H x 6″W x 5.5″D, so they will hold quite a bit! They come in Black, Green and Chocolate Brown. And not bad at just under $20!
