{January 20, 2009}   Greening In The New Year!

I, like many of my fellow eco-fashionista are dealing with the time-honored tradition of how to bring in the New Year with style. I firmly believe that setting the right tone for the coming year starts on day one. So as I click and thumb through my e-catalogs, I’ve resolved that my choice of 2009 attire will always be fashionably conscious.

I have narrowed down a list of several great eco-finds. So regardless of if you’re attending an upscale private party, an explosive outdoor celebration, reflective spiritual observance or low key celebration with family and friends, these selections are sure to work well.

Charmoné is a great place to start for gorgeous feminine shoes.

LOVE the look of the Charmoné shoe!

I bought the Esperanza style from NEUAURA really captures the Victorian era styling but with a modern twist. Velvet ribbon laces, Very beautiful!



Michelle,
I couldn’t agree with you more. Neuaura shoes are great. Their styling is smart and the collections are classically diverse. I’m looking forward to their Spring/Summer collection. I will be featuring some of my favorites from them soon. Please visit often.

Thanks,
Arlene

Arlene,

One more site that I wanted to give a shout out to is http://www.vegetarianshoesandbags.com/

I have found that this site is really a one-stop shopping place, with vegan shoes and boots for the WHOLE fmaily, but they also carry great looking vegan handbags and accessories.

I was definitely impressed!
