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!
Shoes made from tires, foam cups, magazines, and cork? Wallets made from inner tubes? Purses from noodle bags or plastic soda pop tabs? Dresses made from recycled paper?

In today’s world, people are becoming more and more concerned about the environment. If you are one of these people, you are probably thinking of ways on how to help save the earth. You save water and energy at home, you separate trash in their respective containers, you recycle and reuse things, and now, you are asking if there is still something else that you have not tried, or more appropriately, tried on. Are you familiar with natural shoes? If your answer is no, then you might want to add “wear natural shoes” in your long list of things to do now that you are going green.

Throughout the last few Tuesdays I have been writing about recycled fashion, and how to go through your wardrobe to decide what you should keep and what should be given away in the form of donations. This helps the environment by making use of existing materials rather than new ones.

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.
