A Kenmore reader submitted this image of a "bedazzled" Trader Joe's bag. "I added beads and eyelets to make our one-of-thousands bag one-of-a-kind. The TJ cashiers usually get a kick out of it." What are the shoppers in your neighborhood carrying? Submit your own snapshot now!

The 20-cent bag fee is on the Seattle ballot, and it's prompting us to take a look at grocery-bag fashion. After all, if the measure passes, the phrase "must-have accessory" will take on a whole new meaning. We know many Seattleites already carry an environmentally-friendly sack, but where is the trend going? What are you seeing in your neighborhood? Is it grunge, retro, minimalist or haute couture in the checkout line? We're inviting you to help us document this "green" fashion scene. So get out your camera and hit the streets. Snap yourself, friends, neighbors or passersby -- with their reusable bags. Upload your photos now! (Please note, we can accept only .jpg files.)
