Disney rebrands the image of a “princess,” to be loyal, courageous, kind and generous. They’re all traits that describe the girls of this generation very well. The stereotypical “princess” need not apply to this generation of girls. The future is bright, great job Disney!

Who knew our ancestors were so trendy! If you were raised by grandma, then you know a trick or two when it comes to alternative medicine. Medicinal plants have been used for thousands of years; they’re not a thing of the past, but rather a future lifestyle trend.

Suggestions:

Headache, use mint leaves on your temples.

Sunburned, smear some aloe on that!

High sugar levels, drink Orchid Tree tea.

Finally, an adult-like tablet for youngsters!

Everyone benefits…

Here’s how:

• Parents: Parental controls are integrated and it’s only $149.
• Kids: Although you don’t know it yet… you will be developing crucial skills and learning about technology at a younger age than any generation before you. The best part is that you’ll have a blast!
• The World: Our future will be in the hands of a highly technologically advanced bunch. 

Win, win, win,  we’d say.

Life’s cycle enables most adults to relate to a teenager, simply by remembering what growing up was like. These days Millennials and teenagers have something the previous generations might not be able to relate to, an uncertain future.

The Baby Boomer Generation is said to have had greatest opportunities of any recent generation. Therefore, opening the door to a bright future.

As MediaPost Blog points out, “College admissions have tightened, making it harder to get into the school of their dreams, and scholarships are drying up, making it harder to afford college.”

What message should we be projecting to our tweens, teens and  Millennials?

Hard work is mandatory for a stable future; but maintaining a balance of happiness and fun is equally as important.

Overall, I love the idea of this website. The consumer visits the Positive Luxury website to access information about top brands that are leading the way in environmental products. Their mission is easy to understand; informed consumers help build a better brand.

Until recently, the words luxury and sustainability were never really friends. The sustainability movement has influenced many brands to review their production process and develop better products for both consumers and the planet. This website helps promote the brands that are making a serious effort to develop quality products that consumers can purchase guilt free. The wonderful part about this website is that it’s open to anyone who is curious about taking a step towards sustainable products. Kudos, Diana Verde Nieto!
