Ethical is Beautiful

WARNING: PlanetSilverChilli

As you may have noticed, PlanetSilverChilli seem to have gone off-line.
Now, it’s possible that they’re just re-doing their website, very slowly, without even a DNS record for their domain, but it’s not likely.
Moreover, we have been contacted by someone who says that they ordered a bag directly from PSC (i.e. nothing to do with us!) [...]

NEW: Clothes at Plum Ethical!

Well, today’s a big day for Plum Ethical. We’re now selling clothes!
To begin with, we’ll just be selling some of the ethical maternity clothes found by our sister company, Cecily Plum.  They’re designed as maternity and breastfeeding clothes, but — interestingly — many of them are very useful as clothes for anyone.  For example, [...]

Widget! This is nothing to do with Plum Ethical, or bags or anything like that, it’s just a cool widget from teh Met Office that you might like – if you really really want to know the weather in Aberystywyth.

When Is a Vegan Bag a Vegan Bag?

New dA-LaTA bags are here!

We’ve just started (today) to sell a new line of very special bags by new company dA-LaTA.  Currently we’ve only got three of their range of bags, but if they go well will certainly be expanding to pretty much the full range of bags that they sell!
The bags that we’ve got are basically evening bags: [...]

Vegan Issues

Recently I have mostly been learning not to be smug.  It’s taken a while, which is why there have been no posts for a few days.
In my last post I was very pleased with myself that Plum Ethical is a totally vegan store.  Then one of our suppliers wrote to us to tell us that [...]

Incredulous ‘Vegan Bag’ Misuse

Bonkers use of “vegan leather” provokes shameless plug of new Rubber Cow Autumn / Winter Collection of vegan bags.

New Rubber Cow Bags are Here!

Autumn/Winter 2009 Rubber Cow bags are now at Plum Ethical!

Men’s Bags

We’ve been amazed how popular our men’s bags have been.  We’ve only got four Plum Ethical man bags, but I guess the quality has been shining through.  It’s gratifying after the hell careful selection process we go through that people like what we have to offer.
Example: We’ve just done a show (here in Aber, as [...]

50% OFF offer on all Plum Ethical Bags

We’re going to try an offer.  We might regret it, so it might not last long!  The idea is that you buy a bag from us (we like this idea so far) then you get your friend to buy a bag too (we really like the idea now), then you send us your friend’s email [...]
