THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL
By Bonny Osterhage
Not since the 80s have bold graphic prints been this big a focal point of fashion. Thankfully, there is no neon this time around, but there are plenty of bright colors splashed across shirts, dresses and even shoes. If you hate to be the center of attention, this is not the look for you. But if you want to make an eco fashion statement, our top ten graphic prints will show your bold (and socially responsible) side beautifully.
SERIOUSLY?!
Wear Your Heart on your Sleeve…Literally
This Seriously?! idea was submitted to us by one of our readers, Holly from New York. Thanks, Holly, we love it! Keep ‘em coming.
Want to show the world how beautiful you are on the inside? Then show them your insides on your outside with anatomically correct clothing from Inside Out Bodywear.

LOOMSTATE’S BARGAIN LINE HITS TARGET
ARRIVES IN STORES APRIL 19TH – THIS SUNDAY
Following the success of his GO International line, eco friendly fashion pioneer Rogan Gregory is once again taking aim at a Target audience: the eco conscious, budget conscious shopper. Just in time for Earth Day, Rogan and business partner Scott Hahn will launch the Loomstate for Target eco friendly clothing collection, featuring the relaxed and casual fashions for which the company is known.
Although the Target line is significantly less expensive than the original (there is nothing over $50), it isn’t “cheap.” Everything is created using the same 100 percent certified organic cotton and materials that put Loomstate on the map and proved that eco friendly can be stylish, well made and beautiful. Also the same? That perfectly “lived in” quality that makes the brand a favorite among celebrities, including Jake Gyllenhaal, Gwyneth Paltrow, Kate Hudson and many more. Check out the casual elegance of the roll-up sleeve sweater (left), cute plaid dress (center) and dip-dye skirt (right). The men’s collection also has a great vibe. But while the look of Loomstate never goes out of style, it does go out of stores. The limited edition Loomstate for Target collection will only be available through May 16th.
COOL GLOBES EXHIBITION (AND THEY REALLY ARE COOL) COMES TO LA
FOR EARTH DAY
Talk about an amazing way to raise awareness for global warming! Between Earth Day, April 22nd, and July 23rd, the Rose Garden at Exposition Park in Los Angeles will be home to an exhibition of 
more than 50 huge fiberglass globes, all conceived and created by local, national and international artists, as well as school children. Each colorful globe is five feet in diameter, 7 ½ feet tall, weighs 2,300 pounds and is designed to provoke discussion about global warming issues and solutions. We call that a big impact! The exhibit, which began in Chicago and has already toured to Washington D.C., San Francisco and San Diego will head next to Houston after its LA run. You can see the globes online and learn more at www.coolglobes.com.
