Editor's note...
Welcome to the first edition of the Seattle Stylesheet. The stylesheet is our little way of keeping all of our Seattle members and friends informed on all the great sustainable style things going on in our city. We're in full bloom here at SSF. We're springing forward with the tremendous success of our first annual OSSA Awards ceremony at the Gibson Guitar showroom in Los Angeles. Always good to be home though...the sun is shining, the birds are singing, and it's a great time to be in Seattle.
What's that? You have a question, comment, suggestion for the next stylesheet or you'd like to become a stylesheet sponsor? We'd love to hear from you. Email us at or give us a ring at 206.324.4850.
So sit back with your shade grown coffee, click a few links, make plans to visit some of this month's fab finds and take advantage of some great member perks to help you look fabulous, live well and do good.
