It’s what we wear

Peace Love Life: wear the city you’re supporting

Brad Green got to see the world when he was enlisted with the US Navy and after his five years in the military, he’s set up his own T-shirt line to promote peace. Proceeds go to charity.
We love the designs. The company’s called Peace Love Life, and the T-shirts feature the three words, plus a city name, in the language of the place they’re touting. Brad and his crew began with major cities but extended the T-shirts to Baghdad, Darfur, Haiti and New Orleans. Donations are made to help the people in the place that the T-shirts promote.
The San Diego shirt, the latest in the range, benefits victims of the 2007 firestorms and other disasters in the area, with $10 per shirt to the San Diego American Red Cross.

Inspired by Sir Edmund Hillary

With Sir Edmund Hillary’s passing, New Zealanders are going online to buy and sell memorabilia, with the country’s $5 note being the most popular item. However, we’ve heard of something more tasteful from San Francisco, Calif. that shows just how far Sir Edmund’s influence went: a Jeanine Payer necklace, dubbed Arianna, inscribed with his famous quotation, ‘It is not the mountain we conquer but ourselves.’ Arianna features an 18 ct teardrop pendant with satin finishing, accented with a diamond, and retails online for US$575. Jeanine Payer’s website can be found at www.jeaninepayer.com.
