Being green means passing the benefits onto others, which is why I recommend TOMS vegan shoes. They help those in need by giving a pair to a child in need for every pair you buy!
If you are anything like me then you probably have a closet full of clothes, yet you often find yourself without anything to wear! No matter how many dresses I may already own, I still find it hard to find the perfect one – often leading me to go out and buy yet another dress! But I have recently started looking at the concept of recycled fashion to change by attitude.

Fashion is a tricky business. On the one hand we want to look as exciting as possible, with a wide range of designs, fabrics and colours, but on the other we want to do what we can for the environment. And, in many ways, we could say that the concept of fashion itself is extremely wasteful – not to mention harmful to animals. But it doesn’t have to be that way. In the case of accessories, there are many ways in which you can find eco friendly bags that are both fashionable and eco friendly! Read the rest of this entry »

This is part of a series of articles on recycled fashion. This means re-using items, and can include re-using your own items that you never wear! Even if you can’t re-use them yourself, at least someone can if you give them away to charity. But it takes a good clear out to make sure you really do get rid of what you don’t need – and what you are left with is true eco chic fashion!

I don’t know about you, but I often buy clothes without thinking much about it. I get excited at the prospect of owning yet another skirt or dress, before I quickly come to realize that it really doesn’t go with anything and I’m unlikely to ever even wear it!

When I was moving home a few months ago, some of the items that I had to think carefully about were my shoes. I seem to buy new shoes all the time, keeping a huge collection – out of which I only really wear a small amount. I decided I’d try to get rid of a few that I never wear. But I don’t mean throw them out – I would never do that! Since I am aiming to become an Eco Empress I will of course donate shoes and anything else that I don’t use.
