I love a clutch bag. There’s something about a sleek, little bag, tucked under your arm, especially if you’ve got a cute bracelet on…it’s a very feminine look. Here are some eco-friendly clutches for you to take a look at. They are all available online at Green with Glamour.
The Ruffle Clutch from Refind Originals comes in three colors; mustard, royal blue, and red. I like the mustard best because it’s a soft buttery hue. Very pretty with the double ruffle. The Ruffle Clutch is made from recycled material, “…super-soft leather, originally used for clothing, uholstery, and the like…” It measures …read more

Tom’s Shoes

I have a bit of a crush on Blake Mycoskie, of Tom’s Shoes. Tom’s Shoes give away one pair of shoes for every pair that they sell. Seriously – one for one. Wow.
It all began back in 2006 when Blake met some shoeless kids in Argentina. Did you know that in developing countries use walking as their primary way of getting were they need to go? The problem with going shoeless is that their feet get hurt from all that barefoot walking and when that happens, it leaves them vulnerable to disease.
Wearing shoes prevents feet from getting cuts and …read more
Natural Beauty – Homemade Facial Masks

My sister, Robin, and I used to make natural facial masks at home using plain oatmeal and honey. We’d mix the two together, spread it on our face, and then wait. After rinsing the sticky mixture away, we’d get close to the mirror and examine our faces. “Do you see any difference?” we’d ask each other. Facial masks are a fun way to slow down and relax, so there’s definitely an emotional benefit, as well.
In the later years, I began to use something a little more complicated and a lot more chemically-created to treat my skin. It felt a bit …read more

Chic: OK, many people will argue that this is not chic at all and I’m hoping that UGG-like boots will stay in the same realm as Juicy sweatsuits, but there are people that wear them, and they look pretty cute. Who am I to deny them?
Green: Totally vegan. Save those Emus!

How did I not know about Ragazzi?
They’re a great vegan line of shoes that are decidedly not vegan-looking. All the shoes you see are less than $100. The flats are the stuff of my dreams.

Matt & Nat have a great fall collection with plenty of shine. The pretty silver tone on this one plus the zippers makes me happy. Zippers and other closures are all the rage and I’m totally OK with that.
$230

I’m currently obsessed with biker jackets, so you’ll be seeing a lot of these.
This is a faux jacket from Ann Taylor. Besides the fact that it’s faux, i have no idea what it’s made out of.
It is lined, and it’s got that great off-center zipper that I’m fond of.
$148.00

Veggie: Imitation Leather Jacket

Better than a leather motorcycle jacket, grab this imitation leather jacket from Anastasia Lomonova.
Leather can be eco-friendly, especially if it’s recycled or tanned using eco-friendly methods. If you’re dying for a leather jacket, your best option is to buy vintage. But if you’re trying to rid your life of leather, this jacket if perfect.
It’s made out of polyester, but doesn’t look like pleather. I actually really like the gold, which would be great over a dress for night time or to glam up a pair of your favorite organic cotton jeans.
