Up Cycle your Life in 2011

I am a big fan of up cycling. We carry items in our Full Circle Fashion area that are up cycled and people always ask me “what does up cycling mean?” I tell them that when something is up cycled it means that the integrity of the original item is kept intact; however the item is embellished, to make it more current, fun, and interesting. Everything Old is New again, the saying goes and with up cycling that certainly is true. I was thinking….what if we could up cycle our lives? Stay true to your self but embellish your life so that you are more current, fun and interesting? I challenge all of you to do that in 2011, make some positive changes to yourself, your wardrobe, and your habits. That hat you love in the window but it just isn’t “YOU”, that glitter nail polish or eye shadow you’re admiring from afar but say “I am too old for glitter.” Get that glitter mama!!!!! Guys, your not a zip down the front sweater guy or never used that gel/mouse stuff, your just not comfortable, it’s not “YOU.” Gel that hair dude!!!!!!!!!! Have fun this year, take risks, step out of your comfort zone, life is too damn short not to! Here comes the plug…wait for it…..One Green Street is full of one of a kind unique finds for both men and women, why not stop by and let me help you up cycle your life this year! I would be happy to make suggestions and share my thoughts and ideas with you…it’s a safe zone here…I promise! Happy NEW (they call it NEW for a reason) Year to all my dear OGS Friends and Family.
