Appel & Frank's Eco-Chic Shopping Event
By: Barbara Rockwell 09/17/07Appel & Frank’s Eco-Chic Shopping Event on the 27th of September provides the perfect chance to spend a little green on something stylishly green (eco friendly that is). Shop 65 designers, sip on complimentary beverages from sponsors like Saké2me, score free beauty services and goodie bags to boot.
One of Appel & Frank’s popular seasonal shopping events, the Eco-Chic Shopping Event in San Francisco showcases environment-friendly designers. In addition to clothing, jewelry and handbags, expect an array of other green goods like body and bath products, journals and sketch-books, re-usable grocery bags, home accessories and organic food products.
Plenty of event extras make going green even more enticing. Complimentary spa and beauty treatments are offered courtesy of Amea, Kamalaspa and Brown Bag Botanicals. A free Saké2me cocktail can be followed by organic, fair trade coffee at the PG&E coffee lounge where the furniture is created from salvaged materials. Early birds get a reusable goodie bag stuffed with freebies, and a few extra-lucky shoppers win prizes like hotel stays, boutique gift certificates, spa treatments and private Pilates sessions.
As far as fashion is concerned, Kermit the frog got it all wrong. With all this for a $10 ticket, Appel and Frank’s Eco-Chic Shopping Event makes being green pretty darn easy.
