An Easy Way to Live Greener

Posted in Breaking News, Ecofriendly Shopping, Giving Back, Great Ideas at 12:44 am by Deb Savvy

Wouldn’t it be great if you could eliminate all the unwanted junk mail that you receive every day? You can block spam e-mails easily, but it can be really hard to get all those catalogs and free credit card offers to stop filling your mail box. Yesterday I actually received THREE offers for the same credit card. No wonder the airlines are going broke – they spend like $1 every single day just trying to get me to sign up for a credit card I already have! OY!

Easiest Way to Go Green

Well here’s a way to stop the insanity. GreenDimes.com stops your entire household’s junk mail and plants 10 trees on your behalf for $20. They also offer you the choice to remove only the catalogs you don’t want. You can help improve the environment by stopping the mail you don’t want to receive in the first place. The impact of this is huge. In just over a year of operation, they’ve stopped 3 million pounds of junk mail and saved/planted 1,000,000 trees. They have over 75,000 happy members and have gotten a ton of press – NY Times, Ellen, Good Morning America to name a few. 1st 5 million who sign up for Free also get a free issue of Plenty mag from greendimes.com

Fashion Industry News Hot Off The Presses

Posted in Breaking News, Every Day Wardrobe, Style Watch, Womenswear at 1:00 am by Deb Savvy

No, this isn’t just gossip or speculation. I just heard it on the NBC News. And yes, I think it’s interesting. Here’s the scoop. 2008 marks the end of Isaac Mizrahi’s 5 year relationship with Target. No word on what other hot designers they’ve got on the hook for the next year but I’m not worried. They’ve had some pretty hot limited edition collections from the likes of international fashion legends like Fiorrucci, Tara Jarmon and way too many others to name. And I’m sure they’ve got great collections lined up for the future. And as for Issac? Here’s an interesting twist. He’s the new designer for Liz Claiborne. Sounds good doesn’t it?  I can hardly wait to see the first collection!

We’ve Got Some Good News and Some Bad News

Posted in Boots, Breaking News, Designer Accessories, Designer Handbags, Designer Shoes, Shoes, Shoes for Men at 9:34 am by Deb Savvy

The bad news first.  dPetruzzi, a truly terrific source for high end designer handbags and accessories, has closed their doors.  It’s really a shame, they had a really lovely selection of things you just didn’t see anywhere else.  Moment of silence. Click here to browse our most recent designer handbag posts for the inside scoop on where we’re shopping these days.

 

And now the good news, Bertini Shoes has returned to the land of the living.  I’m not sure what was going on there – seemed to be some kind of server problem but what do I know?   Anyway, I’m more than thrilled to report that they are officially back in the game. A sampling of what you’ll find there includes Cole Haan, Clarks, Taryn Rose, Tsubo and way too many others to name. And it doesn’t stop at shoes either – they’ve got designer accessories and sunglasses, too. 

 

Styles for men and women. And some of the best prices around.
