We first reported on the conceptual design of the Bel-Air living air filter back in 2007, and now everyone may breathe a little easier because it came to fruition as the ANDREA Air Filter and went on the market this week! The stylish air purifier, invented by French designer Mathieu Lehanneur with Harvard professor David Edward elevates common houseplants to heroic status as they eliminate noxious chemicals that pollute indoor air.

oeuf animal set hat and booties

We’ve been in love with eco kids outfitter Oeuf for many years now, and they’ve just unveiled their cutest morsel yet: an adorable collection of baby animal hats and booties that let your tot discover his inner ‘Wild Thing‘. Available in green dino-style, cuddly white bear, and grey wolf style, these toasty 100% Alpaca wool hat-and-boot outfits make perfect green Halloween costumes, but are also great for just playing make-believe around the house. In a bout of impeccable timing, Oeuf just released this new product right before the release of the ‘Where the Wild Things Are‘ movie this week, and we couldn’t be more excited to get into the spirit of this cherished children’s book and dress our little Inhabitots up as Wild Things. Go Oeuf!
