Occasionally, I like to post things that I just plain want – whether or not they fit my style, budget, or even my ever-changing mood.  Ergo, the semi-regular To Covet: a category that shows one thing that I’ve been coveting, be it eco-, socio- or independently-friendly. estelle black taupe dress: $160 I have not wanted a Little [...]

Gilt‘s really ramping up for the holiday rush, and their organic, fair trade and sustainable offerings are no exception.  While I can’t say I’m excited to blog during the Black Friday / Cyber Monday chaos, I do like that there are tons of eco-friendly options for me to choose from in my own holiday shopping.  [...]

White + Warren is back at Gilt, and this time I know they’ll have eco-conscious options.  (Last time, Gilt was sketchy on the matter.) {image via gilt.com} “From richly textured wraps to featherweight cardigans, White + Warren’s knitwear combines sumptuous yarns with everyday wearability and style. Started in 1997 by fashion industry veterans Susan White [...]

In the last edition of Eco-Friendly Stocking Stuffers, I forgot to mention that there are tons of December holidays that incorporate tiny (but thoughtful!) presents.  I’ve seen many a friend agonize about their partner’s Hanukkah gifts, or quibble about what the better solstice present would be.  So don’t be too offended, non-Christian readers – the [...]

Finally: Gilt.com is having a sale on eco-friendly jewelry!  Green luxury jewelry is so hard to find, so I’ve been waiting for a sale like this forever. As I type this post, I’m wearing a pair of Balinese earrings – a gift from my boss – that go with everything.  I love them, but they’re not [...]

Awakened News: Link Love

November 16, 2009

Miss Elle, my bestie over at Broke & Beautiful, reviews M641′s Spring 2010 lookbook, and it’s even better than their last year’s efforts (of which I have a dress and a shirt). The ever-knowledgeable EcoSalon reviews a number of organic deodorants…and actually finds some that work!  (Sorry, Tom’s, but you failed the test.) I love [...]

It started early this year. After spending tons of time and energy making a list, brainstorming ideas, and shopping for other people’s holiday gifts, I get…selfish.  I know, it’s horrible, but after looking online for stuff everyone else will (hopefully) like, how can I not come across stuff that I like? So, of course, since [...]

All right, men.  You asked, and I deliver: this is part two of Flesh It Out: Vegan Shoes for Men. You all seemed to appreciate Part I (Vegan Dress Shoes), and to be candid (and a little sappy) I’m just pleased to have a decent male following.  Who says intelligent, eco-conscious men aren’t fashionable? This round [...]

[[Once a week I ask the same bleary-eyed question: “What about Wednesday?” It’s my day to post whatever the hell I feel like, with no regard to fashion, eco-consciousness or, occasionally, even coherent thoughts.]] When my feminist friends told me how rude, inconsiderate and utterly chauvinistic Twilight was, I thought they were exaggerating.  Wow, was I [...]
