The 3 Rs

April 17, 2012

The reduce, reuse, recycle mantra has never been more a propos.


Reduce

The good stuff ie. meat, cheese, etc. tastes great, but is
far from being sustainable. Inspired by hot award-winning documentary Vegucated
($4.99 rental on iTunes),
were taking the
challenge
and going vegan for the month.

Reuse
Instead of rushing off to buy new, were thinking about
new ways to reinvent pieces we already own. Our current obsession?

Recycle
Were the first to admit it: Recycled fashion can
quickly become a hot patchwork-y mess. But it doesnt have to be that
way! Behold this gorgeous recycled trench coat ($300) by Lennoxvilles 88
