being fashion – conscious takes on a whole new meaning – welcome to some new stylin’ from this lovely clothing store – at last some originality with some ethics…
i am off to see what wonders i can rediscover in the bottom of my cupboard, might even be tempted to the charity shop to find some second hand cheap clothes to re-create…

The Brelli is said to be world’s first biodegradable umbrella. Inspired by asian parasols, the Brelli’s handle and frame are crafted from bamboo (sustainably-harvested), and the canopy is made out of an innovative bioplastic. The canopy can be composted in conventional landfills – it has passed stringent tests certifying that it will fully biodegrade in one to two years.
The Brelli is available in two sizes: a 37″ diameter ($28) and a 52″ diameter ($38). It’s currently available at Fred Siegel, Zero Minus Plus and Jussara Lee in New York.
