Nordstrom transitions to recycled bags

Good news, high-fashion lovers: starting this month and continuing throughout the year, Nordstrom will begin transitioning from its current bags to recycled bags, boxes and tissue paper (for all of your gift wrapping needs). The store will also start carrying reusable shopping totes with a cityscape illustration for a whopping 22 bucks.

Details on the stuff: the gift boxes will be made of 100% recycled paper stock that is 30 percent post-consumer waste. The silver foil on the current gift boxes will instead be a matte silver ink, making them fully recyclable.

Rock on, Nordstrom. Way to be about a year behind every other store in the world. No, seriously, though, good move on Nordstrom's part.

Now, way more importantly: doesn't this mannequin photo taken at a San Fran Nordstrom look like a hybrid human-deer-goat? Just sayin'.
