After a while, you run out of ethical panties to party about.  There are always more, eventually, but in the interim, our Tuesday Panty Parties will be interspersed with T-Shirt Tuesdays.  We hope you’re excited, because either way, you’re not getting out of it. A lot of our t-shirt parties are likely to be Threadless-based: [...]

erstwhile diamond 1935

Warning: This post is not for the faint of heart. Fwoomp. That was the sound of you hitting the floor, right?  I’d like to ensure that you only collapse once, so I’m going to withhold the price on this gorgeous Antique 1935 175 Carat Diamond Ring from vintage restorer, Erstwhile Jewelry Co. Vintage Art Deco [...]

Butter London Lindsay 1

The butter LONDON site describes Yummy Mummy as “medium beige” and “true nude” (the latter of which, of course, is impossible, given the fact that I am not the same color as Oprah when I’m naked, etc.).

With all the tweets and status updates, PR pitches about God Knows What and Out Of Office auto-responses I’ve been getting due to Coachella rearing its musical head, it’s kinda all I can think about.  The best part is that I don’t even know what it is. Festival Fashion.  Festival Fashion.  What the hell does [...]

When I see celebrities in gorgeous clothes that so easily could have been purchased from an ethical retailer, it kills me. For instance, Megan Fox. She looked gorgeous in her __ at the Friends With Kids premiere, but it would have been so easy to rock an ethical alternative to this event. Her dress was easily the best [...]

blue rocks nova scotia

I’m a total sucker for these inspiration-whoring sites like Tumblr and Pinterest.  Both sites are excellent and the Pixy Stix of ADD-fodder, which I can’t seem to get enough of.  I’ve been really digging the idea of mountain-living these days, so cabins and minimalist living have been on my inspiration list.  I came across some gorgeous images [...]

everydayeco-elfmineral

This is my foundation.  All of it. I’ve tried a lot of foundations in my day, both powder and liquid.  (Did you know that liquid foundation can’t be made without preservatives? It’s patently not eco.)  Most mineral foundations either make me break out (Bare Minerals), turn yellow (Bobbi Brown) or are too drying.  I never [...]

If you love vegan beauty as much as we do (or you’re a regular AA reader), then you may have heard of Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics – aka OCC. Their spring color palette is so incredibly alluring and intriguing – we had to share it with you ASAP. The idea behind the garden-esque colors coincidentally stems from [...]

Kaufmann Mercantile Sewing Kit

When people say “beauty is simplicity” – they are talking about Kaufmann Mercantile.

You may recall OCC Cosmetics from our recent lust over their spring nail colors. Well, as of today, they are having the mother of all cosmetic garage sales. We’re talking 25%-50% off their professional-quality cosmetics which are already completely affordable. Lip Tar: $13.50 $10 Nail Lacquer: $8 $4 Pigment: $12 $8 Cosmetic Glitter: $12 $8 Best [...]
