VANCOUVER TRENDZ [THURSDAY]

Turn Over a New Leaf

May 10, 2007

Coco's leaf earrings are an awesome look for spring. Created from the leather of vintage handbags, they capture the spirit of the season. They symbolize the act of giving new life to the world - or, in this case, to a discarded purse that someone didn't love anymore. It kinda breaks your heart, doesn't it?

It won't break your heart to find out the many ways Coco's leaves will enhance any outfit. They're available in a range of colours - silver, pink, blue, black and red. And they fit any look, whether you're going for tree-hugging earth girl, force-of-nature businesswoman, or cutting-edge rocker grrrl.

Pick a pair from this newly blossoming tree and be on the lookout for more designs in the future. You can buy the earrings from Coco's website, where shipping is included in the price. Plus, she might be able to whip up a custom order for you if you've got a special desire. Coco earrings are also available in the Cordova Street fashion district at:

Goon Pack, 109 West Cordova Street (at Abbott), www.goonpack.ca
Dream, 311 West Cordova Street (at Cambie)
