DRIVEN TO "TIERS"
By Bonny Osterhage
There is nothing worse than looking into your closet and realizing you have nothing to wear for a big night out. But don’t let it get you down — instead, let it drive you to tiers! Reminiscent of the flapper era, tiers have a certain naughty flirtiness about them — as if you never know when they might flare out to reveal a glimpse of great gams or buff shoulders. Sexy and sweet, tiers are one of this season’s hottest looks and eco fashion designers are right on the pulse! But we must stop gushing now — we’re getting tiered up!
SO HOT!
SUPER SIZE ME!
We are totally lusting after these new Jumbo Tote Bags from Prairie Underground! The colors are earthy, the graphics are bold and they hold everything. Also fully lined with inside pockets and organizing details. Choose from three prints: Equalizer, a striped design (center), Eyeballs (held by the model) and Cracked (left). You’ll use this bag for everything all spring and summer long! $224 at www.beklina.com
SERIOUSLY?!
AT LAST…
Just what the world needs. I don’t know about you, but I just love to dive into a big plate of buffalo wings or ribs (not...), but can’t stand getting my dainty little fingers dirty. I think about it all the time, don’t you? Seriously?! Well, aren’t we incredibly lucky that someone invented “Trongs” to grab those messy meats. Besides being made of polypropylene, bringing more unnecessary plastic invention waste into our landfills, what are you supposed to do…carry them around in your handbag in case you’re suddenly invited to an impromptu happy hour? One of the inventors claims that the inspiration was having sauce all over his hands when his cell phone went off and missing the call. Heavens! www.trongs.com

EDUN’S SPRING LINE IS THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS
European culture meets tribal Africa in “Origin of the Species,” the new spring collection from EDUN, the company that has been making fair trade fashionable since 2005.
“Origins” has found the balance between femininity and bold sex appeal. The geometric cutouts, bold animal prints and simple lines are in perfect harmony with ruffles, silks and sheer fabrics. Be sure to check out the Nyasa top ($195), a 100% silk georgette camisole with an asymmetrical dot pattern, and the Ifu Tunic Dress ($175), a white, oversized, short sleeve, organic cotton tee dress with triple layer tribal inspired deep scoop neckline, that you’ll live in all season. For something bold, the Grass Collar Ainsely organic cotton, V-neck tee dress ($160) gets our vote. There are also some fun t-shirts with African-inspired graphics and a cool men’s collection.
As always, EDUN is as committed to making the world a beautiful place as it is to making beautiful clothing. We applaud the use of more and more eco friendly fabrics in its collections. The company remains dedicated to fostering sustainable employment in developing areas of the world, especially Africa. We remain dedicated to supporting its efforts!
