A Thoughtful, Stylish, Eco-Friendly Holiday Gift For $10? Introducing "I'm Tired Of.." Bracelets!

Times are tough and the holidays are coming. Here's a great holiday gift find- "I'm Tired of..." bracelets, a collection of inexpensive, stylish, and eco-friendly bracelets that give back in a big way! "I'm Tired of..." bracelets are made from recycled tires and metals. Selling for just $10 each, the company donates $5 (that's half) to great charities that support the causes you choose, whether you're tired of cancer, animal cruelty, AIDS, or global warming, just to name a few. Each bracelet represents a cause with the words "I'm Tired of.." and the cause emblazoned on it (i.e., "I'm Tired of Cancer"). In these difficult financial times, they'll make meaningful holiday gifts. The company hopes to raise millions of dollars to fight the world's issues. The first 10 causes are AIDS, Autism, Animal Cruelty, Alzheimer's, Cancer, Child Abuse, Diabetes, Global Warming, Heart Disease and World Hunger. You can only purchase them at www.ImTiredOnline.com, so why not support one that's close to you, or wake up to a new one this holiday season?

Eco Style: Shake Your Booties The Environmentally Friendly Way

I've never been a summer wardrobe kind of girl. You might say that I endure summer fashion. How strange is that coming from someone who has lived in sunny Southern California her whole life?! But, I relish the time when the seasons change and we move into cooler weather and...wait for it...BOOTS! I love boots and there is no question that boots, short and tall, fun and elegant, are in for fall. They're everywhere and eco fashion designers are getting it so right this season. With Stella McCartney and Cri de Coeur leading the way earning two of my picks, here are 10 of my favorite eco-friendly and vegan boots to help you get a jump on the season. An educational note: There is a difference between an eco-friendly shoe and a vegan shoe. Vegan means that absolutely no animal products are used, but the materials are not necessarily sustainable. Call it socially responsible. Eco friendly means the materials used are either recycled, vegetable tanned leathers (as opposed to chemically tanned) or other sustainable textiles.
