High Fashion: Five Must-Have Cannabis Products to Elevate Your Green Style Game
These PNW-made designs are giving cannabis accessories a makeover
A burgeoning group of Northwest-based companies are giving the formally taboo topic of marijuana a makeover. Interior designer-turned-fashion maven April Pride of Van der Pop recently debuted a collection of stylish Italian leather stash bags thoughtfully lined with a waterproof zipper to conceal odors.
Pride and others like her are infusing their cannabis-forward offerings with a focus on design that, in some ways, has made the green industry more approachable.
