Built by Wendy is a NYC- based line of women’s and men’s clothing and accessories. The company was founded in 1991 by Wendy Mullin. Growing up in suburban Chicago, Wendy learned to sew from her mom and grandma. Later at the University of Kansas she studied by day and sewed by night, selling her handmade clothes to record stores in Chicago, Minneapolis, and Kansas City. She supported herself by doing sewing alterations and working various jobs. In 1992 she moved to New York where she opened little boutiques in the back of record stores where she worked. In addition she did costume design, styled music videos, and did freelance design. After gaining some attention due to the popularity of her guitar straps, she began wholesaling her clothing collection worldwide and finally moved out of working in her apartment. Wendy opened her first retail store in Little Italy in 1998. Stores in Brooklyn and Los Angeles followed in 2005.

Noon Solar launches its new Willow Tote with built-in solar power willowbrown.jpg All buckled up, this shibori-dyed organic hemp and cotton tote looks like a normal handbag. But a hidden solar panel and included cell phone and iPod adapter prove that this bag is something different. The Willow Tote, $332, uses solar panels to charge phones and music players while it is worn. This would obviously be best for city dwellers who get plenty of sun while jetting from place to place. I feel like I would have to leave mine on my porch in order for it to get a good charge as running to the car or office probably wouldn't cut it.
