The Bite:
imageChristine McVie may never rejoin Fleetwood Mac (sigh), but not all good things must come to an end: Starting tomorrow, clothes headed for SF recycle bins will make a stylish comeback. A new line of duds from Goodwill and the founder of Joe Boxer, called William Good, will break The Chain of waste by repurposing a Landslide of discarded apparel into snappy garb that looks like it was sprinkled with Gold Dust, Woman (they make men's clothing too). These one-of-a-kind, handmade items blend fabrics to create everything from T-shirts to upscale suits and dresses. Find the outfit of your Dreams at a bargain, and keep the World Turning at the same time.
Wanna Try: 
William Good, available at Goodwill, 1669 Fillmore St. at Post St. (415-354-8570) and online, starting Nov. 15. Not-So-Little-Red-Riding-Hood coat, $60; heart dress, $60.

Cocktail Fact

Fleetwood Mac's Rumours has sold over 19 mil copies in the United States, making it the 9th best selling record in U.S. history.

Small Changes Add Up

If 10,000 SF Biters repurpose an old article of clothing instead of buying a new one, in a year we'll keep the weight of nearly 83,000 Albatrosses out of our landfills.
