Shopper’s Diary: Ochre Store

January 1st, 2008

From Julie:

Somehow this slipped by us: our favorite all-time London/NY store Ochre has launched an online site. Feeling glutted from holiday indulgences? Consider these pure and simple staples to start the New Year at ochrestore.com, which “focuses on products made under fair trade as well as green principles. We love working with Aid to Artisans, a nonprofit organization that helps artisans in developing countries bring their products to the US and Europe. We have also established a collective of textile, ceramics, wood, and glass designers that makes things exclusively for us.”
