Keen’s Santiago Shoes
Shoemakers at Keen were inspired by a trip the Dominican Republic, which spawned a line of boldly colored kicks for Spring/Summer 2011.

From slip-ons to classic lace-ups, they aim to raise $1 million continue reading…

Sublet Clothing – Deborah Dress
Hypnotizing ruffles give way to a simply elegant slip silhouette on the Deborah Dress from Sublet Clothing. An easy slip on style means you’ll get all of that with little effort. Available in two gorgeous neutral hues, I love that Deborah is cut from silk that was ‘rescued’ from the garment district. In turn, allow her continue reading…

The Pamir Pants from Prancing Leopard force us to eat our style-smitten words. Tastefully influenced by Harem pants and made of organic cotton continue reading…
Paper Cloud Vines Pendant Lamp
It’s pretty clear that we love great lighting. A great ceiling lamp draws the eye up and becomes the unofficial centerpiece of the space. The Vines Pendant from Paper Cloud is hand printed on linen and backed with paper. Available in several sweet colors, patterns and sizes, like all Paper Cloud products it is made continue reading…
Off Pitcher
You can buy all the eco-friendly products imaginable, but that 24 pack of bottled water purchased every week isn’t helping. Investing in a glass carafe that can be filled with tap water is a better option. The beautifully-shaped Off Pitchers are handmade, one at a time, of recycled glass and processed in an facility that’s powered continue reading…
Peace Sign Lunch Bag
Made from used plastic water bottles, the Peace Sign Lunch bag is irresistibly cute. The super feminine floral pattern is balanced by the looming, peace offering hand. It’s a great eco-friendly replacement for a disposable lunch or shopping bag. Best of all, The Paper Source will donate one percent of sales to support global environmental initiatives.
