What is the Caffeinovation trend?
Caffeinovation: Carrying a coffee is as much a social status symbol as having the season’s must-have handbag. While in the past few years, this was achieved by carrying a Starbucks-branded cup, the movement now also includes unique anti-branded accessories that prove someone brews their joe at home.
