Nicole Richie is a big fan of her Cammie Hill tie dye bag.
Nicole's Cammie Hill tie dye bag retails around $400.
Therefore whilst it is desirable it isn't totally affordable to everyone. The Style Rules.com have provided step by step instructions so you can make a Nicole Richie tie dye bag for a fraction of the cost of the original.

What you will need ..
-100% Canvas Cotton White Bag
-Color Dye: Purple, Blue, Yellow, Pink
-Rubber Bands
-Color Dye: Purple, Blue, Yellow, Pink
-Rubber Bands
Instructions..
Step 1 - Pre-wash Canvas Cotton bag in warm water, then ring so that most of the water is gone. The bag should be damp when you begin dyeing it.
Step 2 - Prepare dye, each color in a separate bowl, distilled with a lot of water, as you want the colors to come out pastel and not bright. (I usually test it on a paper towel a few times, until it's the color I want.)
Step 3 - Rubber band sections of the bag in any pattern you like, (twisting them creates a cool effect.)
Step 4 - Begin dipping the rubber-banded sections into different colors. (I like to mix and overlap the colors so that each bag is different.)
Step 5 - Hang dry bags outside in the sunlight until 100% dry.
If you want this bag but don't feel confident enough to make your own you will be happy to know you can purchase these handmade look-a-likes from The Style Rules online shop here for $27! -Bargain!
