Peaches Geldof Gets Ethical

0 Posted by in Fair trade, Fashion, New Product on April 17th 2009

Peaches Geldof lives her life in the limelight. As the daughter of Bob Geldof and Paula Yates, Peaches has had a high profile right from day one, and as one of the UK’s most prolific socialites she’s rarely out of the glossy mags.

Some people might be tempted to criticise her for having life handed to her on a plate, but today we’re applauding Miss Geldof for going the extra mile. Proving that she’s listened to some of the lessons that her dad’s work has taught her, Peaches has been working alongside one of our favourite fair trade jewellery manufacturers, Made, to design and produce a fabulous new range of handmade fairly traded jewellery which we think really hits the spot.

In Peaches’ own words:

“I like Made because it’s ethical yet this doesn’t compromise the fashionable status of their collections…the handmade attention to detail adds something special to each piece created.”

This bold, bright and stylish range was inspired by warm summer days and daisy chains. It’s the perfect way to jazz up your summer wardrobe as the days (slowly!) start to get a little warmer.

The Perfect Mother’s Day Gift?

0 Posted by in Festivals, Interview, We LOVE on March 13th 2009

Mothers are great. They do so much for us every day, but sometimes we forget to say thank you quite as much as we ought to.

This is where Mother’s Day steps in – it’s a chance for us all to think about our Mums, and most importantly, it’s a chance to say a great big Thank You.

Here at EthicalSuperstore we’ve got loads to thank our Mum’s for…

But what is the best way to say thank you?

Our number one tip is to make sure you put thought into it – after all, whether you can be with your Mother on Mother’s Day or not, they definitely deserve recognition and some top notch looking after – they’ve certainly earned it.

We’ve got lots of Mother’s Day gifts here at EthicalSuperstore which might help you out on your quest for the perfect thank you. Flowers are lovely (especially fair trade flowers), organic pampering and natural beauty products are pure luxury, and ethical jewellery can’t fail to hit the spot, but I do feel like something a little more would be a good idea.

So we’ve racked our brains and come up with a masterplan…

…just click the promise voucher above, print it out, then fill it in as appropriate and deliver. Don’t limit yourself to Mother’s Day with this one – You could give a voucher any day of the year as it doesn’t actually need to cost you a penny – it’s definitely a case of ‘the thought that counts’, making it a perfect Credit Crunch busting Mother’s Day gift idea.

It’s the perfect way to treat your Mother, because you can tailor it perfectly – and even better for your Mum, she can cash in your gift whenever she fancies.

This is a gift that keeps on giving – it’s a surefire Mother’s Day winner!
