OUR PICKS FOR BEST OF FASHION IN 2008!
Wow, has the eco fashion business come a long way over the past year. It seems like only yesterday, we were struggling to find fashion forward sustainable designers to write about. Now, we have an abundance of very talented artists, all using eco and recycled materials and changing the face of eco friendly fashion as we know it. As 2008 draws to a close, we thought we’d ring it out with our picks for the year’s top eco fashion designers.
We all know we love to get at least one new dress for the holiday parties. But, we also know that we might be just a little bit hesitant this season with the whole watching our pennies thing going on. So as not to be denied, we’ve found some wonderful holiday dresses and a few accessories to go with them that are on sale as we speak!

HIGH STYLE HIGH HEELS – Our Top 10 Eco Friendly and Vegan Fall High Heeled Shoes
Put away the sandals and bring on the fall shoes! Okay… so it’s November and many of you did that long ago, but our favorite vegan and eco friendly shoe designers are now rolling out their fall/winter styles. With every season, they get better and better…more sophisticated, more in tune with what’s in vogue and just plain hot! Recently, we brought you our picks for the season’s best eco friendly boots and now, here’s our list of fall’s high style high heels.
Grape, aubergine, wine, eggplant, plum—call it what you will, but purple is the “it” color for fall. Not since Prince’s purple reign has this rich hue gotten so much play. Like black, purple goes with everything. Unlike black, a rich shade of purple is unexpected and takes an otherwise ordinary outfit to a whole new level. Check out the following list of our favorite eco fashion purple picks. From blouses to bags, shoes to sweaters, purple packs a punch. There’s a reason it’s the color of royalty.
