A Green Idea: The Avocado Store

About a year ago was searching for green clothes via internet extremly exhausting. That's why the founders of Avocado Store, Philipp Gloeckler and Stephan Uhrenbacher, had the idea to built a platform for all german producers of green products. Besides it should be easy for the costumers to find green products and compare their prizes.

As you can see the idea was a fast-selling item and now they can present you over 100 seller and about 2.000 products on their website. 

I think the site is a great idea not just for the customers. It's good, that especially small seller make a profit from being able to present their products in a professional environment, because they don't have the means to create their own website yet. 

There is also a blog, where you can read about specials, discounts, the labels from the avocado store and a lot more.

The Underground Book Jacket

 A wee while ago it was my father's birthday. Last year my brother had the idea to make him a book jacket out of the fabric, which is used to cover the seats in the underground trains. I loved the idea, because my father is collecting books and therefor needs book jackets to protect them. Besides it's just funny, if he's sitting in the train and reading a book, which is covered in the same fabric as the seats. 

Luckily I knew a friend, who had some pieces of that fabric left, so I could sew a useful and unique book jacket. 

Actually, I think I am going to buy more of the fabric and sew some for me and my brother and maybe friends.

Shalom

 

Getting a tattoo is still on my mind.

I just need to figure it out with a girlfriend of mine.

There are always the thoughts about how it will look on the skin later, when you are getting old, and what will happen, if you start to dislike it.

Because it's a permanent thing, a lot of thoughts in advance are inquired.

And at last, it hurts. Why should you put yourself in a place of pain?

I like the idea of a tatto being a piece of memory. 

It's like taking or drawing a picture just that it will be on my body. 

It could represent a phase I went through or a part of my personality I want to underline.

That's why I wouldn't want one, which is just beautiful.

The one on the picture contains just a word, but it makes me smile.

You can think about it so much.

"Shalom" is hebrew and means "peace", but in Israel it's used on an every day base to say "hello".

So the question is: Does she want peace or is she just saying hello to you?

Besides it's not written in hebrew but in the english phonetics.

So, can she speak hebrew, but is not able to write it? Is she jewish? 

I love that a tattoo can avoke so many questions and thoughts in the people, who see it.

Do you have any suggestions?

Music Monday: Robot Bar Fight

Somehow, I love watching videos on youtube or getting videos shown. Especially if they are funny or musically interesting. That's why I want to show you this video.

I like the background music, the text, the rap, the action shown, the relation to other movies. It's just great and shows a lot of creativity.

This Is Why I'm Broke

 

This Is Why I'm Broke is a site, which offers you pictures of products and leading links. The products have a special or unique design most of the time relating to something, like the pillow to the floppy disk.

So if you want to have that stuff immediately (like me), you will end up broke. Let's just hope, I'll find a bag of money somewhere, because I think I need nearly all of those things on the site.

Brother Don't You Walk Away!

 My brother just came back from a trip to sweden. That was his answer to if he could take pictures of me. Nice guy, isn't he? But in the end he did it.

 This dress is like perfection (a seethrough one). That's why I wore another simple dress under it.

The cardigan is from DKNY Jeans and I bought it at the Garage (say: garasch!) for around 4€. It's a little bit to small for wearing it closed, but it has those little golden elephants, which are the main reason I bought it.

Besides my hair keeps growing and growing!

Music Monday: Justice

Probably you saw it all already, but I still want to show this video to you because of the song. 

And the banana bathing suit!

Did you also hear that the justice release of the new record should be this fall? It's too damn long!
