If you don’t already have a net shopping bag that you can also use as an “I’m cool and carry my stuff in a net bag” bag, or if you just want a bag to take to the beach that and take Instagram-style shots, I’m here to help. This is one of those rare instances where a temporary fashion trend doesn’t really require you to buy anything since you can use an existing grocery net bag or even make it from scratch.

UPDATE (7/7/17): here are the net bags I ended up buying. See my net bag extravaganza here.

Where to buy a net bag?

My favorite one is from Amazon and there are enough options to choose from, like this one and this one. You can upgrade your regular shopping bags and leave Whole Foods picture-ready.
