Eco-fashion eye candy #7

Stella McCartney Alexa Eco
Suede Tote Bag, $965,
saksfifthavenue.com.
A tote bag is a girl's best friend, particularly an Italian-made Stella McCartney eco-suede tote.  

Yes, polyurethane helped create the piece but, at least, suede and leather was left out of the equation. It's rarely a win-win situation with eco-fashion, but a suave tote bag is a suave tote bag.

Eco-fashion eye candy #6

Animal Print Rabbit Fur Trench
Coat, $4,495, burberry.com
There's a battle waging between real fur and faux fur. Can real fur be eco-friendly? Or is faux fur eco-friendlier? Is vegan always the way to go?

Fur activists say real fur is a natural resource with limited waste. Faux fur takes extra resources, some are considered tainted with chemicals, to create the same effect. 

Well, whatever the argument, I found this wondrously sophisticated piece of clothing made from rabbit fur. It definitely fits the definition of 'eye candy.'

Eco-fashion eye candy #5

Zip-up sweater jackets create the comfort zone for wintry days spent inside. 

This organic cotton hoodie from BTC Elements shines from the bright forest green hue to the trendy zipper design.  

My wonderful post on eco-friendly zip-up sweater jackets.

Eco-fashion eye candy #4

I have a fetish for butterflies and some other animals, so I had to share this organic cotton top from Mika Organics.
