Georgette is Going Out of Business?!

I’m seriously going to cry. I loved Georgette Shoes.  And to add insult to injury all the shoes I wanted are sold out. I really wanted the Allison. Those adorable straps. The shoes are being offered with MAJOR discounts. So get there girls while you can. They will be gone soon much to my dismay. [...]

Bob Barker and a bunch of other celebrities put up a fight. But they lost. The City Council voted that Billy the Elephant should stay at the L.A. Zoo and live in what will be a new 42 million dollar enclosure. The article says: The decision came after an emotional hearing attended by several hundred [...]

The Greenloop

The Greenloop is one of my favorite website for eco fashion…especially when items are on sale. They have a great selection of organic clothing, vegan items (although not everything is vegan), and shoes. From Melissa to Charmone to Beyond Skin. Lots of choices. And tons of different eco designers to choose from. They also have [...]

PETA Thinks Masturbating with Asparagus is Sexy

What do I think of the super bowl ad that was rejected for being too sexy? (Watch it here.) Well, I think it’s kind of silly. Just another dumb stunt from PETA to bring attention to hot girls in lingerie – oh, and vegetarians have better sex. Really? I’ve never seen that data, but I’d [...]

Thank you to ecorazzi for turning me on to this story. I watched a clip of Jason Wu speak about the inaugural gown he designed for Michelle Obama. Listening to him talk he seemed like a really sweet guy. Only 26 and this much success. That impression lasted about a day and a half, until [...]

This Headline Made Me Want To Scream

What was the headline? An 11-year-old has reportedly become the youngest matador to kill six young bulls in a single fight. Yep. An 11 year old kid in Mexico killed 6 bulls for sport. Both animal protection groups and child welfare groups tried to ban the boy from being able to fight – but the [...]

How Do You Dress Green?

At the Green Ball the other night, guests had to ask themselves, “How do I dress green?” The answer came to many of the guests in this form: borrow. After all, borrowing is reusing. They could have bought an organic cotton dress, or bought a dress made from recycled materials. I’m partial to no one [...]

Great Vegan Hiking Shoe

Patagonia has a great selection of eco friendly and now vegan items. I love Patagonia as a store – pretty much all my sports bras are from there. Up until now, I had never even looked at the footwear. Until I saw an article that talked about Patagonia’s vegan hiking shoes! Now, for those of [...]

Fur at the Inauguration

I loved the inauguration. I thought the first lady and President Obama looked outstanding – even better because she didn’t wear fur. And even Aretha Franklin, enemy to animals, didn’t break out her fur coats. That’s not to say that others didn’t. Any time the camera went into the crowd I saw lots of fur, [...]

Goodbye Bush, Hello President Obama!

There isn’t much to say today other than, “It’s over!” After 8 years of hating my government and being disappointed, I’m finally going to know what it’s like to be proud. Sure I liked President Clinton, but I’m only 27 years old. Which means my entire adult life has been spent worrying about Roe v. [...]
