    Eco-Tips For Eco-Brides!

    Tying the knot can often suggest more unnecessary luxuries than the term implies (well, string), and if you're living an environmentally-conscious lifestyle, then why shouldn't your wedding follow suit? Neither the ceremony nor reception need to leave their carbon footprint when you and your significant other take the plunge. From the invites to the food, there is plenty of room for impurities to find their way into the big day's plan. These days, being green is more than just an attempt to save the beautiful vessel on which we live -- it's a powerful trend that has conveniently filtered its way to any type of vendor you might need to make your fairytale come true. The success of having such reputable resources at your fingertips has even been proven with earth-friendly celeb-weddings like Alicia Silverstone's! Taking the extra steps to seek more eco-friendly options would be a diverting challenge for any couple, and certainly one that will make the knot-tying date and the rest of your lives together extra special.

    Sexy And Stylish Shoes That Are Vegan And Totally Green!

    Noticing a decided lack of anything remotely sexy in the way of vegan shoes, Rebecca Mink - a lifelong animal and earth activist - created her own: glamorous, towering luxury kicks made from sustainable, non-animal resources including rubber, wood, cork, and organic fabrics. When she first showed up in Italy almost 10 years ago, sketches in hand, 16 factories showed her the door, refusing to consider manufacturing such an unprecedented product. Luckily Marco Gambassi, whose family has crafted shoes for generations, viewed her project as a creative challenge. And thanks to Italian engineering, when Mink shoes were machine-tested for durability, they outlasted their conventional counterparts, proving that non-leather is a viable footwear option for green fashionistas. These "Vulture" cork wedges with delicate double ankle straps (as seen here in Lucky April 2009) could possibly be the perfect summer heel. Available by special order only - email info@minkshoes.com.

    Hot In The Hive: Lush's Daddyo Shampoo

    Even if your father isn't exactly the "metro" type, he's still gotta wash his hair, right? And unless he's been blessed with remarkably good time-fighting genes (or he's an ageless vampire, but that's even less likely), chances are your dad is rockin' a salt-and-pepper hued 'do by now, if not a head of full-blown gray hair. Help him make the most of his time-seasoned locks and unleash his inner "silver fox" with Lush's Daddyo Shampoo, a lemon-scented purple lather formulated specifically to restore strength, infuse shine, and eliminate brassy tones for dads with distinguished grays (and other fair hair shades). Even if he's given up all hope on making over his dull-colored coif, Dad will definitely be taken by the fresh lemony (and very manly!) scent.


    Price: $26.75 for a 16.9 oz. bottle
    Who Found It: xgalexy was the first to add Lush's Daddyo Shampoo to the Hive.

    Ready to write a page in your own motorcycle dairy? Turn to ASTARS, a new line by Italian motorcycle company Alpinestars. They have been outfitting motorist and car enthusiasts for over 45 years and started a men€™s contemporary line 4 years ago. The new ASTARS brand for women draws inspiration from Alpinestars€™ rich motorsports history without going overboard. No need to be a grease monkey in the garage or rip around the track on a Ducati for these duds. The clothes are made for watching the race, not winning it. The line includes plenty of slouchy tanks and vintage motorcycle tees as well as a few vegan-friendly motorcycle jackets that look just like the real thing James Dean wore back in the day. It provides just the right touch of motorcycle toughness for your everyday look. Take a gander at my slideshow for some of my favorite pieces, then buy some for yourself at alpinestars.com.

    Six Ways To Make Your Beauty Routine More Eco-Friendly

    Love the planet? Having spent centuries of using and abusing Mother Earth, it's time for humans to start rethinking their normal daily routines. We know it's important to conserve, but so is being beautiful! Start your day off on the right foot by being Earth-conscious throughout your morning prep and it won't only be the planet wanting to thank you for your thoughtfulness! With these helpful tips, you can be the bio-vixen this planet needs and still turn as many heads as you would if you were to get all gussied up the old fashioned way!


    1. Good morning, sunshine! You wake up in the morning and head to the powder room. First off, preservation is key. Sometimes it can be as simple as drawing a little light into the bathroom from the windows or candles (a.k.a mood-lighting)! Morning breath's a killer, so you might want to take care of that first. All-natural toothpaste on an all-recycled toothbrush makes for an, all-in-all, eco-friendly mouth. Next, your pores will probably want in on the planet preservation action, so treat them to an organic and fresh facial wash, like this one from Nude Skincare, and if you're skipping the shower, follow it with a toxin free moisturizer, like this one from Philosophy.

    Bagtrends Is Loving Matt And Nat's "Camden" Bag!

    You know I'm not a fan of the shoulder bag-- handheld is my preference. But, every now and then a good shoulder bag-- provided it has that all important flat base, no loosy-goosy hobos for this bagista-- is worth a second look. This Matt and Nat Camden Bag in Coffee gets a second look from me. First off, it's another eco brand aside from Vegan Queen that I actually like 100%. From their wallets to their large duffle bags, Matt & Nat never misses a bag-a-licious step. And, their prices are mostly under the $300 mark, something we can all appreciate today. The crinkled texture give this material an almost origami-like feel. And, come to think of it, if I recall from their preview that there was a whole origami theme for the season. Finally, the true chocolate color is darn near edible! Let me know what you think in comments!
