Designer Spotlight: Del Forte Denim

FabSugar — Fri, 09 Nov 2007 14:00:22 -0800

How many times have you wanted to have your cake and eat it too? Tierra Del Forte didn't think girls should have to choose between the environment and looking good in their trusty jeans.

After visiting garment factories and seeing what a destructive impact the fashion industry has on the environment, Tierra founded her line Del Forte Denim in 2005, eager to produce denim that is both distinctive in design and ethically made. Mission accomplished: Del Forte jeans are made of 100 percent organic cotton in LA, and a portion of their proceeds goes to The Sustainable Cotton Project.

Del Forte is available at Tobi and run $176-$198.

Simply Fab: Plates with Purpose

FabSugar — Wed, 02 May 2007 14:28:22 -0700

To encourage you all to go go green, I thought it would be timely to share with you these Plates with Purpose, $36-$88. These are not your average plates. Each one, whether it's 5x10, 9" or 14", is made of post-industrial/pre-consumer recycled glass, which means, unlike the glass plates you have sitting in your cabinet right now, it won't take a million years to decompose. With these unique plates, you can eat more comfortably knowing you're helping the environment. Plus, they're dishwasher and microwave safe. YumSugar would love these. Chic and beneficial - tres genius!
