Stylish Fall Eco-Fashion Picks

Posted by Jaszy McAllister on Sep 25, 2009 in Fashion | 5 comments

I have the good fortune of living in beautiful Southwest Florida which means Fall weather stays relatively pleasant well into the winter months.  This also means that autumn fashion choices don’t need to be big and bulky.

For a night out on the town, I wanted a chic, sophisticated and very eco-friendly look…

EcoSkin

For starters, the strapless Poinsettia Dress by EcoSkin is as sexy as it is sustainable, made with bamboo and tencel spandex.  I love the pleating and draping details!  Shop Gretchen&Grace.

Beyond Skin

The Beyond Skin Brown Hazel T-Strap Pump has a classic old world style perfectly updated using faux patent that is Polyurethane rather than yucky PVC.  Find online at GreenLoop.

Zoe&Zac

Another eco-footwear option is the Zoe&Zac Tigerlily Wedge inspired by environmental activist Summer Rayne Oakes.  Made with organic cotton and all natural jute, available at participating Payless shoe stores.

Urth - Megan

Love, love, LOVe the recycled sea shell Megan clutch by Urth Bag.  Urth Bags are hand-crafted from recycled materials by Fair Trade Women’s Organizations and Artisans. Very stylish!  Available online at Nimli.

Zoe&Zac

Or the chic Zoe&Zac clutch made with organic cotton, detailed with canvas trim.  Also available at Payless.

Unabashed Apparel

Even in Florida I never leave home without a wrap or shawl, one to covet is the bamboo and organic scarf/wrap by Unabashed Apparel.  This wide scarf has been hand dyed using low impact fiber-reactive dyes.  The brainchild of designer Sarahbeth Larrimore, Unabashed Apparel pieces are limited edition.  Find her on etsy.

Jaszy - Salsa

What sassy outfit is complete without jewelry?  Top off this assemble with my Jaszy’s Jewelry Salsa Earrings made with Fair Trade red Pau Brasil Tento seeds…shameless plug I know.  Purchase online at Jaszy.com.

Now I’m ready to hit the town wearing my simply gorgeous eco-friendly frocks!
