For anyone who’s ever had to commute to work — especially those just easing back into it after a few years from the comfort of home — there’s a universal adversary: Lunch. It’s healthiest and the most cost-effective to bring it, of course, but how do you get a lunch into the office without feeling like a schoolkid?
Do you brown paper bag it? Do you use a cushioned one you got for free at your partner’s work retreat? Do you, heaven forbid, throw a bunch of containers into your work tote and hope for the best?
Not anymore. Thanks to Ali Kaminetsky, the innovator behind Modern Picnic, you have way more options — and they’re cute, affordable, and sustainable, too. When the Modern Picnic founder began commuting to work in 2016, she noticed a lack of choices for adults who bring their lunches with them. By 2018, her line was born.
The result? “A brand that is built on a foundation of functionality, sustainability and style,” one with an array of insulated bags crafted from faux leather. In other words, Modern Picnic’s Luncher is literally designed to help women look and feel their best.
