Read MoreEvery Sunday I'm highlighting a local business, label or street style. Because, well, let's face it, the greater Seattle area is overflowing with incredible people doing equally incredible things. One post just isn't enough.
Two weeks ago, I featured Cleanscapes, a local store filled with sustainable fashionable items predominantly made in the Northwest. Every person who signed up to receive Poplin emails was entered into a drawing to win a Paper thinks orange leather tote bag provided by Cleanscapes.

Last Sunday's blog post featured the Cleanscapes store in Issaquah. Thanks to Cleanscapes for providing one lucky winner with the handbag shown above. And our winner is....

- Yes, I know Issaquah is not Seattle. But, it is in the Seattle metropolitan area and this is worth the drive. Trust me.

Before our son learned to speak, he had already developed a love of the recycling truck. He can hear it coming and races to the window to watch the entire process unfold. So, when a client offered to give us a tour of the truck yard and visit the Cleanscapes store filled with recycled items, I jumped on the opportunity. Little did I know that the store was not just another boutique that stocked reusable shopping bags. Instead it is a well-curated showroom with a goal of Zero Waste products (meaning products and packaging are made from recycled goods that can be recycled or composted again) that are predominantly sourced in the Northwest. Equally important, they are stylish. Yup. Stylish and good for the planet. Love.
