Well, t-shirt designers at this company, in partnership with the authors of The Green Book, have made a tank top that reads, "Flush Less". For many of us, for various reasons (for instance my apartment has poor plumbing), that simply means they want us to clog our toilets more. Sorry, but plumbing quality differs, some people have tricky excrements, etc. etc.
Sure, they have a point here when they explain better, and leave out the broad, general dictation:
Flush one [fewer] time per day and you'll save about 4.5 gallons of water - as much water as the average person in Africa uses for a whole day of drinking, cooking, bathing, and cleaning.
But in reality,
nothing is black and white, even green. I mean sure, one fewer flush a day sounds fine, but it might mean one more plunge a day, now okay but---can somebody tell me how to best clean that darn plunger?
Eck!

I can't figure out if the ampersand counts as a word, so part of my pun is messsed up. But Dooney & Bourke has a new logo collection (they're way ahead of Coach now in coming out with new signature patterns!); called Crossword with diagonal letters inside blocks. Part of the gaming fun is missing, however, with all of the brand letters filled in. Is this a case of visual design before name concept? (No, that is not a bad thing.)
Overall these bags are very attractive, with new design elements to them, even. There are no wild colors, no the bags are pretty understated. I give these letter-emblazoned bags a B _ _ _ _ _. (Hey, they're not as hot or
desirable as the Giraffe line.)
Let's take a break from shopping, wish listing, holiday weekend-ing, and get back to a little relaxing reading ... about shopping! Well, clothes, but clothes you might want to buy. WhoWhatWearDaily.com is a hit of a new online fashion magazine, and blog, that scouts out designer names and gushes about celebrity trends.
Take this dish on 'Gossip Girl' gals. We see a composite of young, attractive potential-It girls who are just a tiny bit in need of ensemble-cohesion tips, layer portion-control and maybe even in desperate need of either a thicker winter wardrobe or just a warmer climate. The female characters appear to have the same personal style as all the rest, as well.
Whatever one likes what media or celeb stylists dress their clients in or not, WWWD has got it all "labeled" out. Personally, I'm curious to know how they know those plain black tights are from Forever 21, but that's just the kind of thing that makes a site like this a success.
And the graphics are fun.
