Edit: The sale is now extended through Jan 9!!
*****************************************
Just imagine this scene … you’ve woken up on Jan 1. Maybe you went out the night before and partied hearty in uncomfortable clothes and sticky hair product, or maybe you stayed in and watched a bunch of NetFlix choices while finishing up the eggnog. But there’s something about getting up on January 1 that begs for warm, soft, comfy clothes while you watch the Rose Parade/Bowl and eat your menudo or ozoni.

With that in mind, we are ringing in the new year with a sale on cozy sweats, comforting hoodies and stylish but fleecy zip-ups. (Lets face it, they are great for any time of year!)

We’re also offering savings on cards and keepsake ornaments.

From December 28 - January 9, get …

If you are find that it can hard to be both environmentally and fashion conscious, keep the faith, because the solar-powered handbag is here.

Joe Hynek, a doctoral student in mechanical engineering at Iowa State University, designed the “Solarjo Power Purse” during a handbag competition in an experimental garment design class.

The black, rectangular purse, which is covered in laminated solar panels, is capable of powering any small device that uses an USB port, sucha as cell phones, personal digital assistants, MP3 players and small cameras.

The Power Purse is not yet available for purchase, but Hynek wants to eventually market it to environmentally conscious consumers, and hopes to keep the retail price under $300.

(Props to the Hippy Shopper and The Raw Feed.)

However, don’t put aside that less chic solar-powered backpack just yet.

This late breaking news …

Our “Got latkes?” ringer tee is featured this month in the classy full-color magazine, ANEW, in the special holiday section “Our Favorite Things.”
