Green Lullaby- Innovative Fun For Kids

blocks

When I first saw Green Lullaby’s doll cradle and block style storage boxes I was sure they were made of wood.  They looked so sturdy and classically designed.  That is all true too.  Yet each Green Lullaby product is made of corrugated cardboard.  Light, easy to assemble and Eco-friendly too Green Lullaby has created a whole line of  100% natural products.

The real rocking doll cradle is completely portable, easy to assemble and even has a carrying case to tote it with you to different places and spaces like grandma’s house. The pink and green floral design is sweet and guaranteed to please with its included doll mattress.  Even better is Green Lullaby’s unisex MultiBox, a 3-in-1 storage box, seat and learning tool.  Styled like those classic wooden blocks we all had as kids these corrugated cardboard boxes are perfect for play rooms, bedrooms and even outdoor play spaces.  Each box is recyclable and fire-retardant.  I love how each box has a cover and hand slots for toting around.  The numbers, letters and bright colors will inspire and teach your children during their hours of play.

Green Lullaby products are available at Oompa toys, Abe’s Market and Giggle.com.  Check out their portable cradle and kid-sized desk and chair too.  You won’t believe they’re  cardboard either.

Online Shopping’s New Reality Show

Think of shopping with a friend, holding up a shirt or dress against your body and asking, ” Is this me?” Fashionista, a new service from San Francisco recommendation provider RichRelavance, takes this experience and replicates it in a way that is authentic to the online world. Created using technology from interactive marketing agency Zugara,shoppers visiting online store Tobi.com can try on up to 300 pieces of clothing using a Webcam and a computer. The process involves calibrating a Webcam by holding a design marker printed out on a page. When the site recognizes the marker, it starts projecting images of clothing on the computer screen. If you don’t like it you just raise your hand and hit a visual “next” button and you will see another clothing item in its place. You can give items a thumbs up or thumbs down using another virtual button and then later see all you favorite clothes, along with recommendations for matching items. If you need further affirmation, you can open yourself up to compliments or criticism by sharing the experience with friends on Facebook. I think this is a very cool concept and a right step in the direction of making shopping for clothes a truely visual experience. (via ClickZ)

Michael Kors Santorini Rattan Clutch

Michael-Kors

It isn’t very often that I come across a handbag that works for the Spring, Summer and Fall months. However, today, I’ve found one. Leave it up to genius designer, Michael Kors to come to my rescue. In fact, I would expect to find a tote or a hobo that could cross seasons without a glitch, but clutches can be a little more difficult. Furthermore, I am not talking about a black clutch, I am talking about a clutch that is clearly a little more trendy.

The Michael Kors Santorini Rattan Clutch is the perfect handbag for sprucing up so many of your outfits. Since we are in the midst of November, I am going to start off by saying this clutch would be so fabulous with a deep, dark and rich outfit. I love the how the light brown rattan clutch contrasts against the dark brown leather strap. This color combination plays off of one another so well. The decorative buckle offers just a hint of sophistication to the otherwise simplistic bag. Add a hint of stitch detailing and a snap fastening which opens to a completely lined clutch and you have an amazing accent to your outfit. I love how the clutch can be dressed up or down with just a simple change of shoe or top. Once again, Michael Kors succeeds!
