And Now… Back To Vancouver’s Most Incredible Fashion Boutique

I simply must share. My favourite store in Vancouver just had a wee boost to its’ already stellar cred: Twigg & Hottie was written up in the Travel section of the New York Times this past week-end, in an article that heralds Main Street as “a fashion-forward, relaxed destination with a Think Globally, Act Locally vibe”.

Holy wow.

Congrats ladies.

Turn It Off! British Columbia

I'm turning off on May 16 - you can too!

May 16th, 2007: Shut ‘er down BC!!

Here’s a news flash: Vancouver is smack dab in the middle of a 30 Days of Sustainability celebration and affirmation. (Find the month-long schedule of events here.) This Wednesday is the official “Turn It Off! British Columbia” Day. It’s being hailed as somewhat of a challenge, but think of it more as a way to contribute and participate in the common goal to integrate sustainability into the minds and lives of every citizen.

If you don’t know what or how to “turn it off” (get out from that under that rock), check out some tips here.

Help spread the word: check out the Facebook Group created for the cause, blog about it and share the link love. As well, use your photography to inspire the rest of us and add any photos you may have taken of this beautiful land to your flickr, tagging them “30days2007” so we can all have a gander!

Tomorrow morning, unplug that digital alarm and let the birds and sunlight wake you up!
