GOING UNDERGROUND
Prairie Underground brings a whole new meaning to fleece. We are definitely not talkin' Patagonia here. While the styles might be drawn from the classic hoodies we know and love, there is nothing classic about the interpretations.
This eco friendly clothing collection is made of organic cotton and hemp in both vividly colorful and muted shades. And, it's modern, edgy and all about the details, from the multiple seams of the very cozy Prairie Hoodie (above center), which makes us long for fall transition, to the ruffled skirt and asymetrical off center placement of the zipper in the Moto Hoodie (above right). Then there are the wonderful collars in so many of the styles, like the Funnel Dress (above left) and Moth Coat (right).
The line includes coats, jackets, dresses, tops and leggings that work under many of the tops and jackets. Available at www.tobi.com.
Make sure you check out our "Seriously?" feature, where we bring you eco products & stories that are (how can we say) crazy, nuts or "over the top."

Sweet Dreams are Made of This...
OUR TOP 12 ECO FRIENDLY LINGERIE AND PAJAMA PICKS, PLUS 2 MORE FROM THE UK
by Bonny Osterhage
When asked what she wore to bed, Marilyn Monroe once answered, “Why, Chanel No. 5, of course!” You can’t get more organic than sleeping in the buff, but if you prefer something that leaves more to the imagination, we have rounded up a dozen of the sexiest, comfiest, sweetest and (in some cases) most practical pajamas and lingerie on the organic market. Sure we love your oversized organic tee shirt but seriously, why sacrifice style just because you’re sleeping? Besides, you never know who might show up in your dreams!
FLAT OUT...UM...FUNKY AND FUN
Sometimes, especially in eco fashion, less is more, as is the case with the UM bags from Josh Jakus. The understated, yet fun, bags are made from industrial wool felt which, although not an organic material, is eco friendly because it comes from factory excess that would otherwise go to waste.
But what really makes these bags unique is that they unzip to lie completely flat for dry cleaning, storage or travel. When you are ready to hit the town, simply zip up your UM and voilà…instant handbag! The sleek, sophisticated, grey bags are available in four styles, including a coin purse, two clutches and a tote. And while there is no alternative bag color, there are five zipper colors from which to choose that add a nice shot of contrast. Create your combination at www.joshjakus.com.

TRAVEL RELIEF
Summer means travel. And while we may not be traveling as much as we used to in our effort to lower our carbon footprints, there's nothing like a vacation to renew and rejuvenate...except for that actual travel part. We don't know about you, but for us, it's usually quite stressful. Enter the Travel Kit from Golden Earth, an organic and botanical set of five aromatherapy-based essentials to keep you calm and collected. The kit contains a citrus hand cream, spearmint (yummy) foot cream, a rose, jasmine and lavender body cream, sandalwood and cedarwood bath and hand gel, and an essential oil blend to combat jet lag. Don't leave home without it... www.goldenearth.net
