Apolis Bag and Other Favorite Things

Starting off the week just right with a blog post we’re super excited about. Happy Monday, friends! We hope you all had a great weekend. Let’s just get right to it and start talking – or for you – reading.

Apolis

Apolis (uh-paul-is) means global citizen. Also, they are a certified B Corp that equips and empowers people. In addition, being a certified B corporation means they have met higher standards of social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability.

Their Model: Advocacy through industry

The companies model is founded on the simple idea that people can live better lives when they are given equal access to the global marketplace.

History:

Two brothers started this company believing that business can create social change. Also, they believe that it is important to source their products locally.

We first discovered the Apolis bag when we were creating a blog post on gifts under $100 gift guide. So, we instantly fell in love the market bag and the fact that you can customize it.

Did you know that Apolis doesn’t just have bags? They have a full line of clothing including tees, shirts, jackets, and pants. If you are still struggling with what to give your dad or the guy in your life, check them out. Furthermore, they even have a gift guide HERE. Your guy won’t only thank you, he will look good, and you are supporting a company that does amazing things. In our eyes, a total win-win!

Life Is Short Eat Ice Cream & Buy Flowers

The market bag really is a great gift for you or anyone in your life. Perhaps, they use it as a work bag, grocery bag, utility bag, gift bag, or whatever they want to bag. In addition, Apolis carries a city/country series market bag where you can find your neighborhood printed on to the bag. But don’t ya worry if you can’t find your neighborhood because you can just design your own, yay!

We customized our market bag with a fun little saying to make the bag just ours. Also, a little more personal for us! AND, if you can’t think of a phrase then just go to Pinterest and start searching away… that’s what we did. But also, here are some ideas for you as well to start brainstorming:

• Rep where you live or where you would love to live
• Your favorite quote
• Favorite tv show quote
• Favorite things/items
• Put some words that inspire you or make you happy
• Kids/family names
• If you’re using the market bag for a specific use, something to do with that

What’s a favorite thing of yours whether it’s something you like to do or just something you love? Having a little reminder to make you smile. Also, just take a moment to be grateful for all that life has to offer even through the ups and downs is ALWAYS great. Thank you Apolis for collaborating with us and bringing a smile to our face everytime we use our market bag. Because let’s face it, life is short and eating ice cream and buying some flowers will always make our day just a little bit better.
