A scrunched up plastic bag is a classic lunch conveyer. If it ain’t broke, why fix it? you may ask, but, dear lunch eater, there are other options. And, if you have decided to put some effort into making your lunch, why not flaunt it?
The executive sandwich carrier
Meaning that briefcase you bought at your local thrift store that you never use. Now that everyone’s gone paperless you will find that it is perfect for holding an apple, a tenderly wrapped sandwich, and your journal of choice. Swing it jauntily.
The retro tin
Yup, that Felix the Cat/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles tin box from first grade, with your name and address taped to the inside, is actually useful again. And quite cool, in a slightly regressive way.
The brown paper bag
Minimalism at its most chic, the brown paper bag suggests that you bought your lunch at a famous New York deli. Buy in bulk online, and start a brown paper bag lunch gang.
The eco-friendly cotton tote
Available pretty much anywhere, often for free. Save the planet and hide your plastic-bag-encased Tupperware at the same time.
The picnic basket
A vintage classic. For the sartorially brave.
