Looks Like A Paper Cup, But Its Not A Paper Cup

Posted: 02 Oct 2009 04:47 PM PDT

hottie carrying porcelain cup, not paper cup

Clever idea by designer James Burgess, he designed this fancy cup to look like a paper cup, but in fact it’s made out of porcelain and is totally reusable.

The It’s Not A Paper Cup mug is white and big and when you take it to work everyone will talk, because it simply isn’t what it looks like.

I love it!

The reusable beverage cup is dishwasher and microwave safe, comes with a silicone lid, fits in most car cup holders, and because it’s double walled it will keep your beverages hot or cold. Get it online at ModCloth.

ThredUP A Clothes Swapping Idea Similar To Netflix

Posted: 02 Oct 2009 04:21 PM PDT

thredup

Have you heard of ThredUP, yet? It’s a clothes swapping website that facilitates the swapping of clothes with others locally or nationwide.

The idea is simple really. Sign up as a free member, enter in the required registration information and then list what you have to trade. Others who are also signed-up will get matched with your clothes depending on what their specified preferences are.

For example you list a white denim mini-skirt, someone else types in that they’re looking for a white mini-skirt. They’ll be matched with your listing, they then pay for some specialty envelopes and the items checked will automatically be sent to their home.

Easy, low cost and possibly a great way to find some cool gently used clothing, ThredUP aims to make it easier than ever to swap clothes.

Looking for an eco alternative to the traditional pumice stone? Give terra cotta a try.

Terra cotta is a 100% natural stone and does not wear out like man-made pumice stones, this particular one is hand formed in India and essentially is a natural remedy for dry skin on your feet.

Stella McCartney Animal-Friendly Fashion Line In Demand, More Than Ever

Stella McCartney, daughter of (Beattle’s) Paul McCartney, finally gets a chance to celebrate her animal-free fashion line success.

She has stayed true to her values by creating hugely popular shoes, bags and clothing made fur-free and leather-free. Apparently a challenge in the fashion industry. She signed up with Gucci to create and promote her cruelty-free fashion line in 2001, but it was a slow go and she did not make a profit till four years later in 2006. Wow! That’s really holding out.

Glad to hear that Stella is doing well, but more importantly that DEMAND is up for her animal-friendly pieces. Kudos to Stella! (and Gucci)

Posted: 01 Oct 2009 07:02 PM PDT

oil is history eco exhibition

In a visually stunning series of photographs, an eco centric art gallery showcases the fossil-fuel heavy car industry juxtaposed with nature.

The exhibit is meant to create awareness and get individuals talking about how our lifestyle choices affect climate change. It’s a thought provoking exhibit (aren’t they all) and the photos literally speak for themselves.

There’s also a fascinating story behind each car image.

To read that story and to view the haunting and melodic photography captured in the LA Marler images, go to the LA Marler website.
