I'm all about saving the world one recycle bin at a time, but some people take being green to a whole new level. For example, one of my college roommates used to literally holler at our guests if they so much as took one step toward the trash can with an empty plastic water bottle in hand. Strange experiences aside, I guess it is the ultra-passionate "world warriors" who make the biggest difference, which is why I'm proposing the idea of making this year a green Christmas! You don't need to make presents by hand to be kind to Mother Earth. For example, Sephora has loads of eco-friendly beauty sets, and Dogeared has its own line of recycled jewelry and totes so the eco-chicas on your list can continue spreading the world-saving word!

Though we would be extremely excited about Paul McCartney and Morrissey teaming up, we're still pretty psyched Stella McCartney and Morrissey are teaming up. Especially since they're teaming up for shoes! Both Stella McCartney and Morrissey are vegetarians, and they're about to create a line of shoes together that proves their love for animals. They're in the early stages of a leather-free range of footwear. According to Stella, "I'm working with Morrissey on a line of leather-free shoes which I'm really excited about. We are still in the early stages, but the shoes could be launched next year." We never really placed Morrissey as a shoe designer, but we think that's pretty awesome. And we have a feeling the shoes will sell really well because there's a huge population of people who don't want leather on their shoes. Not to mention, we're sure there are tons of Morrissey fans who would love a pair of his shoes. Check out our friends at LimeLife to read more!
