FASHION FILES : GROW SOME JEWELS

Icelandic product designer, Hafsteinn Juliusson, and Atlanta indie designer, Colleen Jordan, have been taking going green to a whole new level with "grow jewelry." The pieces are not only creative, but they are well designed. There's nothing worse than a good idea executed poorly. Both designers use clean lines and geometric shapes in their work. Perhaps the only downside is that they do require some maintenance. Good thing Haf provides easy-to-use directions and a mini green house to help preserve the live jewels. These pieces are definitely not for the introvert because they will surely provoke conversation. Sure they're not for everyone, but grow jewels have major COOL factor and only a fearless trendsetter could pull this off with grace.   




Order your green jewels here and here in celebration of World Design Day! Colleen Jordan is being featured on fab.com today.

FOODIE FEATURE : DINNER IN SKY

Dinner in the Sky is a high flying Sky Box that takes 22 guests to a viewing height of up to 180 feet. The 22 guests are comfortably strapped into a leather seat that is secured to a dining table. The dining table and seats are connected to a crane which then performs the lift. The center of the dining table has a walking platform that can accommodate up to 5 service personnel for the purpose of serving food, beverages, picture taking, conducting a meeting or product launch presentation.

Its is only available for rent in about 42 locations around the world including Las Vegas and Florida. And if you're looking for a cool new business opportunity, you can buy some of these babies to start your Dinner in the Sky franchise. This is cool, but I don't know if I'd be able to keep my food down (green in the face). 
Dinner in the Sky is the type of bucket list item for the foodie with an iron stomach.

Next time you're strolling around a major city look up and you might get a glimpse of one of the coolest dining experiences the world has to offer. *Sigh* I love it when people get creative.
