Barney's NY Green-idays


Simon Doonan et al create a green wonderland in Barneys New York's holiday windows. The Manhattan mecca is not only stocking the flossiest Balenciaga bag, but a thousand-can strong recycled Rudolph-the-Red-Nosed-Raindeer sculpture.

Some argue it is a fantasy that purchasing environmentally-friendly apparel will have an effect on climate change. To that, I say "duh".

My goal is to spend my hard earned cash consciously, and on products which support a greener solution. If I apply this to clothing, grocery shopping, transportation, even energy consumption I like to believe this will make one-one millionth of a difference. Better than doing nuthin.
