Stella McCartney X Bambi

Famed animal lover and animal friendly designer, Stella McCartney shows her playful side in her Autumn/Winter ‘09-’10 Campaign. Seriously, who doesn’t love Bambi, Thumper and Flower?

Stella, will you marry me? I know you’re already married and that you don’t swing that way but if anything should change, you know where to find me. And maybe by then it will be legal!

A girl can dream, right?

Thanks for blasting this Pauline. Visit The Lipstick Diaries for more good ting tings.

Carpool Convos – Episode 1 of 3

This is part 1 of an upcoming series produced by Sarah Shewey of Pink Cloud Events. It features the guys of Fallen Fruit and Damien Somerset of Zaproot having candid and unscripted conversations while driving in a new Honda Insight.

Kudos to you Sarah! And I’ll be sure to never throw my apple cores out on the street again.

Earth Cinema Circle

I’ve been reading about Earth Cinema Circle for quite some time and I’ve finally made the decision to join after realizing I’m pretty obsessed with movies such as ‘Food Inc.’ and ‘The Cove.’ Movies like these don’t usually get an entire back wall of “Guaranteed In Stock!” at Blockbuster- but they should!

Earth Cinema Circle is a DVD club dedicated to increasing social & environmental awareness through entertaining films.

How it works: Every other month the customer is sent 1 DVD containing 4 environmental movies on it. It is sent in 100% recycled packaging and after viewing the movies, they’re yours to keep. All that for the low price of $17.95 (plus $4.95 s+h.) Bonus: Earth Circle Cinema is sponsored by Gaiam and narrated by Ed Begley, Jr. Beat that Netflix!

If you break that down, including shipping, you’re only paying $5.73 a movie. Cheaper than a matinee and more fulfilling than the entire box set of Gossip Girl.

Check it out and do your recession ridden wallets a favor and support environmental filmmakers by joining Earth Cinema Circle now!

Hugo’s

Vegetarians, vegans and organic food followers can take comfort at Hugo’s. Even after recently revamping its interior, the West Hollywood favorite for breakfast and brunch remains committed to its use of free-range, organic and sustainable ingredients.

Their egg scrambles, breakfast a la carte plates (Chilaquiles above- to die for!!) and pancakes are popular morning options; their create-a-plate feature allows flexibility for lunch or dinner.

Michelle’s Bachelorette in S.D.

We arrived to the 5 bedroom house and felt like we were in an episode of The Real World. Meeting our roomies and having our minds blown by the fully equipped house full of goodies.

Day at the beach where we were all treated to mani’s and pedi’s courtesy of Michael.

We pretty much spent the entire weekend at the house.. doing exactly what I said we would be doing..

Lots of this, that, that and that.

There were actually some eco-friendly elements to the weekend. The home water treatment system at the house provided us with an eco-friendly home water purification and water softener solution. Most of the food used at home had organic ingredients (thanks for the delicious meals Edean & Jenni.) And we also had our very own keg of Fat Tire Beer- (one of the few beer breweries that practices sustainability.

I won this ca-ute reusable shopping bag from playing ‘Pin the Macho on the Man.” Hungover, bindfolded and spun several times I somehow managed to make a bulls eye target.

And that’s all I can mention… there are images and reputations to uphold. Not mine of course, but for the sake of others.

Thanks to all the lovely ladies for making this a memorable weekend full of love, laughs and liver problems. And thanks to everyone for contributing in bringing/making food and to all that helped with cleaning and to the ones that provided games, prizes and crafts. Most of all thanks to Edean for putting it all together!

Congratulations Michelle! Love you. BTW- is that a penis straw in your cake?

Thanks To The Recession..

Sales of polluting, plastic water bottles are down.

And sales of home water filtering systems are up. Yay! Target is having a sale on Brita filters (which are now recyclable) and pitchers until September. On top of that, you get a $5 Tar-jay gift card with every Brita purchase.

Then all you need are some of these eco-friendly, good for the planet, non-leaching (good for you,) reusable bottles and ta-dow! How you like me now?

Hello.. Keith Herring Sigg bottle?? So much sexier than a plastic water bottle. (I got mines at Whole Foods.)

Must See Movie: Food, Inc.

In Food, Inc., filmmaker Robert Kenner lifts the veil on our nation’s food industry, exposing the highly mechanized underbelly that has been hidden from the American consumer with the consent of our government’s regulatory agencies, USDA and FDA. Our nation’s food supply is now controlled by a handful of corporations that often put profit ahead of consumer health, the livelihood of the American farmer, the safety of workers and our own environment.

We have bigger-breasted chickens, the perfect pork chop, herbicide-resistant soybean seeds, even tomatoes that won’t go bad, but we also have new strains of E. coli—the harmful bacteria that causes illness for an estimated 73,000 Americans annually. We are riddled with widespread obesity, particularly among children, and an epidemic level of diabetes among adults.

Featuring interviews with such experts as Eric Schlosser (Fast Food Nation), Michael Pollan (The Omnivore’s Dilemma, In Defense of Food: An Eater’s Manifesto) along with forward thinking social entrepreneurs like Stonyfield’s Gary Hirshberg and Polyface Farms’ Joel Salatin, Food, Inc. reveals surprising—and often shocking truths—about what we eat, how it’s produced, who we have become as a nation and where we are going from here.
