So…I’m getting married TODAY!  I can’t believe how fast this year of planning has flown by!!  Aren’t my leather-free shoes from Spring adorable for this fabulous occasion?  They’re now on sale for half price! – too bad I missed that deal!  Ha ha, I still only paid $40 which was far below what I’d budgeted!  Animal friendly, eco-friendly and budget conscious – I did well!

$19.98 - Spring Shoes

At one of my wedding showers my cousin gave me this adorable necklace from Cardinal House.  The flower is hand sewn with reclaimed fabric and attached to a hand wrapped vintage beaded chain and of course – it is one of a kind.  Check out her site, she has so many unique necklaces tha are oh so eco-friendly!

I’m so sad I’m going to miss this, but for those of you in Chicago you MUST go and tell me about all the fun!

I’m SUPER EXCITED about my latest purchase.  I just ordered this adorable gray tank from Vaute Couture.  Leanne, the fabulous vegan designer is also the model in the photo above.   The tank is $32 and even better, shipping is only $2!  I’m really looking forward to the fall when she offers sweatshirts similar to these tanks.

Dirty Jeans

Boyfriend Jean - Mid Show - levi.com

Boyfriend Jean - Mid Show $43

I never really thought about how dirty jeans are for the environment!  Levi’s says

1.  Throughout its lifecycle, a pair of jeans consumes as much energy as powering a personal computer for 556 hours. You can reduce this by washing less and line drying when possible.

2.  Almost half of the water that is used throughout the life of a pair of jeans takes place after you bring them home from the store.  (don’t wash your jeans after every wear – wait as long as possible to save on water!)

3.  The average person in the US throws away 68 pounds of clothing and textiles a year.  (donate or recycle old jeans)

I just came across these cute bags from Ragazzi Vegan for $58.  However, I really feel like they’d do better in the winter.  They remind me of a puffy winter jacket and thus I feel like that would be the best time to use carry one.  So, I’ll keep these in mind for the later this year :)

Summer Tunic

I just ordered this adorable tunic from Kind Boutique.  I have it in grey and just love it.   It’s a simple tunic that can be worn so many ways.  Add a belt, leggings, and/or cuff/chunky bracelet.  The Popomomo Bess Tunic in Pistachio Stripe is on sale for $46. 

Flipee!
