Top 5 Eco-Friendly Fall Dresses

In honor of the recently-ended fall fashion week in New York, we’ve assembled five of our favorite environmentally-conscious dresses for autumn.

1. JUMA BUBBLE DRESS
The Juma Bubble Dress follows a classic fashion rule: If you’re going to show a lot of leg, best keep your upper half under wraps. The bubble bottom keeps things interesting and the tie front prevents that “sack” look that only works on runway models (pair it with dark tights and an eye-catching scarf or earrings to add to your look). As a company, JUMA is helping to create a more eco-focused Canadian fashion industry and use organic cotton and bamboo fabrics. Click here to read more

A Gift that Will Give Back: Organic Style’s Heirloom Apple Tree To Be

Organic Style Heirloom Tree To Be

Think about it: how many of the gifts you’ve been given over the years do you still have? If you’re anything like us, it’s probably a pretty small percentage. Clothing goes out of style, electronics become obsolete, or we just grow tired of things – things that ultimately end up in landfills.

With so many gift-giving occasions every year, it can be a struggle to find a present that will be meaningful, useful, and lasting. Organic Style’s Heirloom Apple Tree To Be is all of these things. Each kit contains everything needed to grow a Ralls Janet apple tree, including seeds, seeding pot, potting soil, and reference guide. The Heirloom Apple Tree To Be even comes with an aluminum tag meant to be inscribed and attached to your tree once it’s grown. Click here to read more

Ceago Opulent Vintner’s Collection Helps You Green the Wedding Season

Ceago Opulant Vintners Wine Organic
Get out your semi-formal summer attire, your romantic side and your wallet: it’s once again wedding season. This year, however, you can bring green into even the whitest wedding by foregoing the registry and picking an original gift that’s good for the environment.

While the bride and groom are inundated with soup spoons and toasters, why not give them something to help them unwind from the big day and toast not their bread, but their union. The Ceago Opulent Vintner’s Collection opens to reveal two wines (red and white, for either taste), assorted roasted nuts, fresh fruits and chocolate caramel pecan clusters — all of which are organic. Plus a bottle of biodynamic, cold-pressed olive oil to get things cooking back at home. We recommend reading up on Organic Style’s website to find out more about the benefits of biodynamic agriculture. Click here to read more
