KOR Water Bottles


Posted by Gloria Chik on January 30th, 2010 - 7 Comments

 

KOR ONE – Water Redesigned. This arrived on my radar at just the right time – right after buying my second Starbucks water-glass, it was recalled with good reason. In came the KOR water bottles, a slick and beautiful collective of vibrant water bottles, and a feature-filled product. Benefits? Plentiful:

 

  • Made from BPA-free Tritan, health-safe materials
  • Hinged cap for easy open and close (no cap to hold when drinking!)
  • Threadless, perfect sized spout (unlike screw?on caps, you won’t feel like you’re drinking from a water hose)
  • Does not retain or impart flavors; there’s no “metal” or “plastic” taste
  • Easily fit ice cubes in spout
  • Easy carry handle and soft bottom
  • Dishwasher safe (top–rack)

 

‘Tis a good way to take on plastic. Bottoms up, KOR!

Fidelity Denim’s Western Goods

Boyfriend Jeans? That was so 2009. This year, the spotlight’s on Fidelity Denim’s new collection of vintage western and Boyfriend Shirts for Spring 2010. While I admit that the idea of a denim shirt frightened me at first, the button-ups soon won me over with their cool, rugged, laid-back look that any boyfriend-shirt-wearing girl would appreciate. The shirts come in 2 different styles and 7 different washes – my personal faves are the the Louis in Crude, and the Ted in Ombre. Just pair ‘em up with some black leggings to avoid any jean on jean action.

 

What’s your take on the shirts?

Four Inch Ninja

Don’t you dare let your imagination run wild with the title – Kid Robot‘s playing with plush as they offer up the Pocket Wee Ninja Plush (4 inch ninja). Why wouldn’t you pay ten dollars for four inches (no, no…don’t go there)?

 

Standing at 4-inches tall this pint-sized ninja is a master of the stealth hug, sneak snuggle and nubs of tickle fury.

 

Love.

Kudos to the girl with the most stunningly blown out hair I’ve seen as of late. I dig this perfectly contrasted black and white photo. But not more than her perfectly done frocks.

Cloud 9

Cloud 9 Cloud 9 Cloud 9. It’s a play name that’s been spinning in this one’s head for a bit. That alongside an ultimate misread – how was I to know that a play about sexuality wouldn’t have a more fitting name than “A comedy of multiple organisms”. You’d be jaded not to know what the misread would have been. Off to see this play today at the Panasonic Theatre Box Office. Lovely times to ensue – will let you know how it is. Admittedly, I haven’t attended a play in plenty long, here’s to hoping for a good time!
