Aaron Chang's Eco Friendly Plastic Swimsuit Line
In swimwear you probably never thought you would hear plastic ...
Famous photographer and surfer, Aaron Chang, loves a sexy beach babe in a bikini (who doesn't?). Apparently, he also has a deep love of the eco-friendly clothing. After an overwhelmingly positive response to his 100% recycled plastic fabric swimwear, he's decided to convert his whole lineup to the recycled stuff.
To look at them, you'd never know that these styles were made out of recycled soda bottles -- and of course that's good. Earth Day is smack in the middle of swimsuit buying season, so why not use it as an excuse to buy a new swimsuit. Rumor has it that Aaron's recycled bikini lineup is heading to a Urban Outfitters this summer.
One thing I know you won't hear is "paper or plastic?" : )

Soda Pop Top Fashion....
Here's one way to recycle..... soda pop tops. Wish I had the patience to make my own or to have even thought of doing this, but due to time.... carpal tunnel and lack of patience, I'll leave it to others. Soda Pop Top fashions are pretty cool.....

Sleek and stylish, this belt by Neide Ambrosio celebrates eco-chic. Elegant in golden tones, the belt features pop-top panels held together by fine crochet work.

Soda pop-top backpack, 'Pink Dazzle' Combining shining threads with gleaming aluminum, Neide Ambrosio

responsibility.
