It has been a while since I posted any update on this blog but I
definitely thought of you often:) Recently I have started to
contribute for Opportunity Green Conference blog. My first post was about BAGGU and its founder Emily. Do you remember Emily from 2 years ago? The link will take you to an Opportunity Green blog post which has a visual slide show of the interview! Enjoy:)

Ready for being fashionably anti-car?
Los Angeles MTA (metro) ridership is hitting the record highest while the infamous LA traffic is starting to show the decline in congestion (link to LA Times). It might be the beginning of LA consumers' mindset change from heavily car dependent to fashionably anti-car. For those of you who are ready to make the shift, we came across perfect bicycle basket carrie that could also be used as a shopping basket at the grocery store. Who wouldn't be tempted to pull out the old bicycle from the garage when we have such a whimsical accessory?

Fashionology LA
Fashionlogy is a DIY fashion store in Beverly Hills where tween girls can explore and be
"designer" of their own fashion. It works a lot like Build-A-Bear but
mixed with more virtual interaction when they design their clothes. (Of course... right? They are Club
Penguin/Wii generation). Great opportunity to empower the self expression of young girls but also connect them closer to "objects" emotionally to make it into something they want to keep for a long time.

Sac A faire
Sac A faire, DIY bag made of Tyvek (FedEx envelop material.) You choose a pattern, cut it out. Voila! You have a very special bag. It's made in Austria. On market for around $33. Love to get one for toybox collection.

Sartoria Vico
It does get cold enough in LA to want to wear something warm and cozy. Sartoria Vico has beautiful knit items from sweater to hat in soft colors. They have interesting cuts and patterns and come with hand drawn illustration... Pretty.
