How many people spend hours creating the perfect vacation itinerary only to be left dumbfounded when staring at their suitcase? Karin Brownstein and Tanya Traykovski, founders of Voyage Style, have solved the perennial problem of how to pack and what to wear. Voyage Style, the essential anywhere companion, fashionably outfits travelers for all destinations. It offers versatile pieces for people on the go that are packaged and sold in its own carefree carry on.
Avid travelers, who are also fashion-conscious, Karin and Tanya always found it very difficult to pack. Their greatest challenge was to combine style, easy care, comfort, and cultural appropriateness, while not being weighed down by a lot of luggage. Explains Karin, â By talking to our fellow travelers, we realized that many women, like us, were effortlessly elegant in their daily lives, but had no practical yet sophisticated travel wear options. Even though I might be thousands of miles away from my closet, I want to look and feel like I do at home.â
Voyage Style, the essential anywhere companion, combines several great fitting garments - the City to Country Pant, the Sites to Shores Shirt Jacket, the Here to Anywhere Tee, the Just Perfect Jacket, the Sneaker to Stiletto Skirt and the Day to Dinner Dress. These create a myriad of fantastic looks for any occasion of type or trip and are packaged in the carry on. Tanya adds, âI find Voyage Style very practical when I mix business with pleasure. It is easy to pack and carry on, dresses me stylishly to meet with customers, and is comfortable for running around when Iâm off. I was wardrobeâchallenged when invited to a business dinner in Boston after hiking in the Berkshires. If only I could have whipped Voyage Style out of my pack!â
What makes Voyage Style unique is that it was designed with traveling in mind. Karin continues, âI have learned that low necklines, high hemlines and bare shoulders are prohibitive in many countries and cultures, as well as in a business environment. We selected these designs because the traveler who is wandering in a local market will never be denied entrance to a Cathedral, Buddhist Monastery, Synagogue or Hindu temple or boardroom. Our styles can also be dressed up to go to work anywhere.â All pieces are in high quality, wrinkle-free jersey fabrics that can be machine or hand washed, line dried and packed compactly. The packaging is value added because it can be used as a carry on, a cosmetics bag, beach bag or anything a creative individual dreams up. Best of all, Voyage Style is affordable, with a four piece set retailing for under $250.
Karin and Tanya have said goodbye to big bags and baggage claims. They know that once you purchase Voyage Style, all you need is your toothbrush and ticket (and possibly briefcase), and youâre ready to go anywhere. Voyage Styleâs compact elegance is particularly compelling in todayâs travel environment as it enables a woman to get in and out of the airport quickly.
Voyage Style, the essential anywhere companion, will be launched at retail in New York in November 2002 at Flight 01 in Henri Bendel, JV in Minneapolis, and Sassy in Naples, and rolled out to the W Hotels and specialty stores nationwide in March. Tanya contributes experience in fashion design and product development, and Karin brings a strategic marketing background to the brand. The garments are all made in the U.S.A. from 96% polyester and 4% lycra. The packaging is created by Susan Fisher for juice DESIGN. Voyage Style will be sold in department, specialty and travel stores nationwide starting in Spring 2003.

Is organic food a food fad?
Carlos
The local grocery store never used to sell organic food and it used to only be available at health food stores. There aren't any experts who claim that the chemicals in non-organic foods like potatoes, milk and olive oil are harmful. I have never seen any organic potatoes for sale. Supposedly a potato is high in pesticides.
With what we know about food these days, buying organic food is just like buying a pair of expensive Nike shoes for walking. Given that you do not have any foot problems, a $150.00 pair of Nike shoes will be just as good for your feet as a $45.00 pair of generic shoes. You just like the style and the technology of the shoe. The same reasoning about organic food can be applied to the receipts that you receive at a store. Every receipt contains BPA. Why not spend any additional $1.00 to $4.00 for an organic receipt?
Answer
No it isn't a fad as it has been around since 1979 (that is when the first Organic certifiers came into being, though Robert Rodale coined the term in the 1940's).
The reason you are seeing organic foods in major grocery chains is because in 2002 the USDA (not the FDA, the FDA has zero jurisdiction over farming or the Organic National program http://www.ams.usda.gov/nop, which is a 1500+ page set of regulations that over sees the growing of Organic food in the USA.) Took over the Organic certification and regulations of Organic farms in the USA thus nationalizing the program that before that was 71 separate organic certifiers, each with its' own sets of rules which made it almost impossible for companies to do business across state lines and hard to do internationally. But once the NOP went into place than we saw Organic food products become available in all major grocery chains throughout the USA and many food corporations getting on the bandwagon by introducing Organic options to their products.
What we know about organic foods is that in most cases they do indeed have far fewer synthetic chemicals and more and more peer reviewed studies are pointing towards the fact Organically grown foods are more nutrient dense and contain more antioxidants (the UK survey of papers about this that many hold up as the end all piece that "proves" that organic food is not different than conventional food only look at 6 nutrients and not all 96 nutrients and even than many of the papers suggest organic is higher)
Organic food is grown differently than conventional food as the farms are managed quite differently. Organic farms pay attention to growing soil and getting things in balance with the ultimate goal of being free of using any pesticides and having healthy lively soil as we Organic growers know that healthy soil teeming with life and about to provide all the nutrients possible will keep plants healthy and free of pests and disease. my farm is a couple of year away from that reality and we use less and less pesticides each year (yes, there are biologically based pesticides, a whole bunch of them, read the list here http://www.omri.org).
There are millions of tons of Organic potatoes grown and sold in the USA each year and have been for decades, just because you have never seen them does not mean they do not exist. i ate some last night for dinner as a matter of fact and I have bought them is stores such as Kroger's and Wal-mart in the past.
There are many scientists that claim that chemicals in conventionally raised foods are indeed harmful and many have been banned in the USA due to their carcinogenic qualities. And yes, people get sick from exposure to such according to experts
