Happy Earth Day everyone!
I think everyone is trying to be a little “greener” these days, but does that mean you need to give up being a fabulous fashionista?
Of course not! There are lots of things you can do to stay fashionable and be eco-friendly at the same time.
Recycle your cell phone, PDA, batteries and even laptop. Keeping electronics out of landfills is a great way to stay green. Can you get your pricey electronics repaired instead of buying a whole new one?
- Try out green materials. Organic cotton, recycled materials and upcycling all reduce our environmental impact.
- Got to fly to your favorite fashion week? How about buying carbon credits to offset your plane flight.
- Support companies that have a strong environmental policy. There are lots of great accessory and jewelry designers who are committed to being green.
