Chug on the Go, with Contigo

If there is no such thing as too many sippy cups for kids, then us big ones can't get enough water and drink bottles either. 

Even if you have ten on rotation, don't you just want one with say, a storage compartment?

That's what Contigo is all about, a premier travel mug and water bottle brand that has found its way to our shores, after gaining popularity in the US, Europe, Middle East, South America, Australia, and Japan.

What makes Contigo different is that they offer solutions to the challenges that concern people with active lifestyles. I mean, how can you get into that state of Zen if your keys and class cards are splayed about with your water bottle and towel? Would you enjoy seeing your coffee overflowing into your car's cupholder as you navigate that speed bump? Or think about the lukewarm taste of water while biking the Nuvali bike trail. Not fun right?

With unique bottle features like 100% leak and spill-proof caps, heat retention of up to 4 hours, and cool retention of up to 12 hours, Contigo's line of simple yet functionally innovative and environmentally friendly drinkwares will treat customers to a mess-free and refreshing beverage experience every single time.  

Doesn't hurt that they look great too. Nikki Ng of Contigo Philippines sent us these lovely Contigo water bottles. Love how they're sporty yet sleek, and come in these fun, jewel toned colors.

 

Ever since 2003, Contigo has continuously been featured in publications like Good Housekeeping, CBS News, The New York Times, and the Oprah Magazine. 

In 2007, BusinessWeek named Contigo’s Patented AutoSeal stainless steel mug as a Bronze IDEA recipient.

Whatever style you choose, you and the kiddos can chug on the go, with Contigo.

Get your Contigo at Bikram Yoga Outlets and Baby Couture stores. You may also place an order online via their Facebook Page.

Travel With Envirosax

I have plenty of happy thoughts & fun escapades with Envirosax bags. Not only do I use it as grocery bags, I set aside two bags from the Origami series and literally toted it around Manhattan & Singapore as a diaper bag when Berry was a wee one. It's been awhile since I've bought reusable totes, but this new Envirosax collection called the Travel Pack is quite a sight.

For one, it ain't called travel for nothing! The series features my favorie cities New York and Paris, plus a city I have yet to visit, Sydney:

Have you decided on your fave? Then again, why not get all three! The specially designed pouch it comes in is cute too!

The Envirosax Travel Pack collection is currently available at R.O.X., The Travel Club and Bratpack branches nationwide.

Hyper Conscious!

H&M is about to launch their Conscious Collection on April 14, 2011 and I super want!

The collection is made from environmentally – adapted and green materials such as organic cotton, Tencel® and recycled polyester but these pieces look anything but "eco" if you know what I mean. Super pretty, priced just right, and I am loving the old school Chloe-sque vibe!

My top picks? The eyelet dress,  brocade cocktail dress, Broderie Anglaise tops, and scalloped hem shorts. Kate Bosworth would so approve.

Grocery Shopping with My Baggus

Fed up with the plastic bags that I take home every time I go to the grocery, I have now made it a point to bring my own bags with me not just to the grocery but wherever I go.

I usually do my supplies shopping once every two weeks, and I usually bring home at least 10 plastic bags with each visit. Suffice it to say, I have accumulated a whole lot of plastic bags that it sickens me. I've got a huge Chinese market bag full of all those non-biodegradable junk!

So imagine my pleasure when I did my groceries this week and only used up 3 Baggus!




Not to mention, I got a rebate for bringing my own bags!

Best of all, it folds up nicely that I can store one or a few Baggus in my bag, see...


To make sure that I don't forget to bring my Baggus with me, I hang the Baggu storage sack (which can fit up to 10 Baggus) with my keys so that I can grab a couple before I head out the door!



Baggus are available online through their website. They ship worldwide for $9.

Oh, and great news for those back home who have been looking for Envirosax bags! These bags are now available in the Philippines through Envirosax Philippines' multiply site.
