Today is Saturday, November 28, 2009
I love it! Last week we covered various items that were eco friendly and we decided to continue talking about these items through the end of April! Wil our coverage end here? I don't think so. I think having this included within regular posts will be a great way to ensure that we have numerous ways to do our part. In many ways, I want to bring the most inventive ways that we can keep the Earth looking great while also increasing our closets!
Now when it comes to automobiles, we probably don't look at the seatbelts and think about their major contributions to the overall statement of the car; however, Harvey's Seat Belt Bags will make you think about how amazing it can look when it's on your arm. To get you on the same page, yes these are bags, wallets and clutches that are made out of seatbelts and they come in various colors and bodies as well!
These bags are gorgeous because they consist of the belts that have been rejected from the factories and they have been woven together to create a durable bag. No wonder it has found itself on the red carpet. In addition, these bags can go wherever you feel like heading to. From diaper bags, everyday and evening wear - this bag is definitely a great find that you won't mind sharing!
I never liked carrying an additional bag before I came to NY. I somehow found a way to bring everything in one bag. Now I always have a bag to tote around items and many times I want a cute bag like the ones above when I'm out and about (I'll opt for it in lieu of having my purse during the summers)! This week, we have focused on various eco options that are available and since today is officially Earth Day, why stop when you're on a roll?
Today, I was inspired my boyfriend, Paul (and Food Editor on this site), who wondered how he could get his hands on an eco bag! Being a former surfer, one who enjoys the ocean and someone who believes in Farmer's Markets - I thought I would help him out! In addition, yesterday, I was in Forever 21 and saw the 'Go Green Tote'. I love that whether you're at Forever 21 or Whole Foods, there are extremely affordable totes that help you save the Earth (oh yes your $1 goes far) and in many cases, you can get a discount of sorts at various stores for reusing your bags! Of course, there are various companies making totes that are nearly $100 as well so there are tons of options. I should have purchased the Go Green Tote; however, I have to say that my favorite is the Cindy Kirk Recycle Pattern Green bag that is available on Piperlime.
It seems that this week is Earth Week and there are a lot of goodies out there and of course Kitten Lounge wants to make you aware and hope that you get off to a good start to help the Earth in a number of ways. Starting today and through Saturday, April 25th, Il Buco (we covered their Pig Roast last fall), is doing an annual Earth Day Fundraiser. Have lunch here and your total bill will be reduced by 15%! Not only is this economical for you but your savings will serve as a donation to the Amazon Rainforest (known as the “Lung of the Earth”) via the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). This is the world’s largest and oldest global environmental network! Lunching for a cause is amazing and Il Buco supports sustainable agriculture which is a great way to support them by having a meal or two there this week!
Earth Day is around the corner, we're all about being Green and of course, being cognitive of what we use that may not be best for the environment. To that end, there is a huge movement to have our cosmetics include the best items that are pure of toxic chemicals. Almay Pure Blends is all about keeping it natural and your skin beautiful. With over 95% of its ingredients being natural, you're still able to have that great look with the peace of mind that you're face is truly shining in its most positive light. Register at Lucky and not only will they plant a tree in your honor but you could be one of 50 readers that receive a reuseable Lucky Tote which is the perfect way to handle your goodies while making a point that makes it a great choice for all of us. Take some time to check out the link and keep the goodness going!
We love hearing from you! Suggestions, ideas and thoughts are always welcome.
