Last Night At The Green Awards...

Last night Offset Warehouse had the privilege of being invited to the Green Awards 2010.

The honour of the invite somewhat magnified by the breathtaking venue, the Natural History Museum, (yes, dinner under that big dinosaur skeleton in the entrance), the ball gowns (Charlie was in her ethical boutique gown courtesy of OSH) and the table's ethical place settings and flowers (beautiful, origami, recycled paper flowers to be exact) glowing under the ambient lighting. 

The hall was bustling with green entrepreneurs and businesses and we were fortunate to be on a winning table; RecycleBank who presented their project, "Waste not, want not" (UK) won their category and our very own industrial design consultant, Ani, received a High Commendation for his business, Kranium.

But the highlight of the evening was being in the presence of Sir David Attenborough.  Who gave a moving speech about sustainability and the need to be green now more than ever.


Charlie and Ani both wear "Offset Warehouse" from the Boutique - Charlie in a gorgeous number from OSH, made from reclaimed materials, and Ani's bow-tie made from woven old, cassette tape!

On The 8th Day of Shopping Offset Warehouse Gave To Me... A Jogi Shoulder Bag!

This Jogi shoulder bag is the ultimate in casual cool.  With its laid back design, it's perfect for throwing all the essentials together for those last-minute overnighters, during the Winter party season!



http://www.offsetwarehouse.com/boutique/product/20/shoulder-jogi-bag-with-oval-purse

The Jogi shoulder bag is made of 100% Azo-free cotton, woven and hand dyed in a fairwage workshop in Nepal.

*Azo dyes are incredibly environmentally damaging and a dangerous, carcinogenic substance to work with!


The detachable, large oval zip purse is fab for hiding your important possessions (keys and phone!), and the bag's long twist handle means you can wear it comfortably either on your shoulder, or across the body.  Inside, there is a tie closure for increased security.

For just £29, this bag not only looks great, it's a complete steal!

On The 5th Day of Christmas, Offset Warehouse Gave To Me... An Abena Top by OSH !

by Offset Warehouse on Wednesday, 24 November 2010 at 11:02

The Abena top is chic, gorgeous and the only proof we need that ethical fashion is becoming modern, fashion-forward and beautiful!  Guaranteed to turn heads at absolutely any event this Christmas, you can leave your passé Christmas, frump-jumper at home!

This crop top is made with awareness of our environment: made from reclaimed factory off-cuts, and using whole pieces of fabric - so it won't create any waste!

Although slightly dearer (yes, we're using our Christmas bonus on this one!), it's an investment, staple piece, which will be fashionable season after season.  It's a favourite piece in our wardrobe this holiday season!


Get Yours Here!
