live well with less

Published on November 7th, 2008

high five to new york magazine. this month’s issue grapples with NYers trying to survive despite the economic woes. their multi-page spread offers various solutions, and while some of them are preposterous–buying multiple colors of uniglo parkas because they’re cheap–others are tried & true staples of any greenies lifestyle. among them repairing clothing & furniture instead of simply replacing them, renting fancy dresses instead of buying, organizing clothing swaps with all your hip, fashionista friends (then donate what isn’t scooped up).

other thoughts they shared…cooking at home, ditching netflix for DVDs from the library & letting go of your taxi cab addiction.
