Free Clothing?

2009-09-09T12:17:00.000-07:00

Has anyone ever been into a Salvation Army store, Resale shop, or Thrift store?

I can't judge anyone because I haven't. I spend roughly around 1,500-3,000$ a year on Clothing Items, Accessories and Shoes. I have watched tons of videos on YouTube and I have paid for Workshops at Craft stores, and Fabric stores. I have done all those things because with the Recession, and just to SAVE money. I have convinced myself to make my own clothing items etc. Lol, it's going to be hard because I'm not very good with a Sewing machine, or Needle and Thread. I was at a Football game and saw a Lady Knitting! It looks so interesting, so I think I'm going to take it on as a project! I have so much free time, so why not?

I have bought a few things to get started, but it is a hard task... It's not as easy as it looks..

I read that bigger knitting needles are easier to start with, until you get the hang of it.

So if your someone like me who spends tons of cash of unnecessary items, stay tuned to more of my Blog postings! We can go on this Journey together! We can do it and we will do it!!

Stay tuned.. :D

Invisible Children Clothing Store.

2009-09-09T10:50:00.000-07:00

This is the coolest gear I have ever seen that benefits a good cause, this line is by Invisible Children. What in the world is Invisible Children? "In the spring of 2003, three young filmmakers traveled to Africa in search of a story. What started out as a film making adventure, transformed into much more when these boys from Southern California discovered a tragedy that disgusted and inspired them, a tragedy where children are both the weapons and the victims.After returning to the States, they created the documentary "Invisible Children: Rough Cut," a film that exposes the tragic realities of northern Uganda's night commuters and child soldiers.I didn't know anything about this until I searched, and searched and out came this Non-profit Organization. I love it how so many people in our World are so Passionate about helping out! From reading most of these Organizations story's I think about my talents, and what I could do to help out also! Hmm... I can Dance, Act, and play sports... I Enjoy Writing.. I love Fashion..
Hey! I think I'm giving myself some ideas, I will let everyone know when I start my Organization! Thanks for reading! :D Go check out the store!

Madonna Is NOT So Eco.

2009-09-08T11:45:00.000-07:00

Madonna :

Awhile ago placed an order for 110 pounds of kosher beef for the last two performances of her “Sticky and Sweet” tour in Tel Aviv. OMG! It takes 2,464 gallons of water to produce one pound of beef! Madonna save some water for the Animals, save water for us! Grrr... and of all meat she choose Beef? Gross, no diss to Beef, but Turkey is so much better and healthier! Madonna's wasting Beef, why did she do this? What exactly does she need it for? It's making me sick to my stomach thinking about it.. Ah.. Celebrities sometimes forget that they can help save our planet also, it would make so manypeople join in! Any who, get to clicking and leave me comments!

Back in the day, the Aztecs drew symbols in the earth to communicate with their Gods. These days, Marketing Gurus turn to Corn fields. Lol.

How A Hair Bow Can Solve The World.

2009-09-08T10:07:00.000-07:00

These two girls quickly regrouped, making a large batch of these stylish duct tape bows, selling them to classmates and friends. And what did they decide to do with the proceeds? Help save the planet, that's what! They immediately began researching charities to donate to, and stumbled upon We Can Solve The Climate Crisis (We Campaign), a charity dedicated to a greener earth, making strides towards making America carbon emission free. After contacting them, they began selling these bows feverishly at school lunch, and before dance class, and have thus far sent over $850 to the We Campaign.

Personally I give major props to these girls! The bows are Gorgeous!Everyone has Duct tape in there homes, this is soooo.. ECO! Being as young as they are, I would have spent my hard earned money on junk food, clothes, and movie tickets. To create a product such as Duct-tape bows and sell them for money, to give to a great cause is awesome! It's Amazing how Responsible and giving these girls are. They are my Role models lol! We should all learn from this, and "Give to Get back". They represent what Eco/Friendly/Fashionista stands for! Honest, Responsible, Fashionable, Eco Friendly! XOXO Eco Friendly Fashionista ;D.

Senator Obama signs a letter to PETA.

2009-04-09T22:07:00.001-07:00

As you know, Canada annually opens its eastern waters to commercial seal hunting. The United States and European Union have been unified in their opposition to the slaughter of seals by passing legislation decades ago to restrict the sale of seal-based products within their borders,” Obama wrote. “I certainly believe in the spirit of these acts; the U.S. should not condone this recent Canadian action.” I hope and Pray PETA does something about this, they were excited to get a letter from Mr. President! But HURRY up PETA those Seals need help?! If you look at the websites I support, you will see the save the seals link please click it and support the helpless animals before it's to LATE?! ;( Click here. ---> www.hsus.org/protectseals

Rihanna visited a patient going throw Chemotherapy in the NYU Medical center, 6 yr. old Jasmina. Rihanna and one of her biggest fans had a Hospital slumber party and Rihanna surprised her with, Cover girl make-up and they sung songs all night!
