Nordstrom is catching up to the whole eco-chic trend with its new reusable shopping tote. I checked one out. It comes folded up (7 inches by 6.25 inches), but, with one quick pull, turns into a full-size, hobo-shaped shopper.

Of course, it will collapse back into its original shape. This makes it perfect for tossing in your handbag and using for quick trips to the supermarket or drugstore.

The tote is made of metallic brushed linen and features a cityscape illustration by artist Ruben Toledo.

It's available at Nordstrom stores (Arden Fair and the Galleria at Roseville) and online. Just click here. Each tote costs $21.95.
