Fashionable and Eco-Friendly

The gift-giving season is upon us and if you are looking for the perfect present to give your environmentally friendly pals or family members you are in luck. This year there are more “green” items on the market than ever before. And eco-friendly celebrities are making a beeline for them.

If you are looking to add a little more “green” to your red and green holiday, consider picking up a the following items:

ECO-FRIENDLY TOTES

Celebs from Marcia Cross to Rihanna and Jennifer Aniston have been seen around Tinseltown carrying chic reusable shopping bags available at Charles and Marie. They look more like large designer purses than shopping bags. Especially since they are covered with an eye-catching design that looks very similar to a famous monogram handbag. The “green” bags come in green as well as pink, blue, yellow and red. They are sturdy enough to lug around just about anything, but their high style means you won’t sacrifice looking good while you do so.

“GREEN” DIAPER BAGS

Expectant mothers, you don’t have to give up your eco-friendly totes once your baby arrives. Instead, just add to collection by purchasing a Fleurville Eco-Friendly stroller bag. The company has created a line of Stroller Bags using Re-Run, a fabric that is woven from the remains of recycled plastic bottles! The bags come in four colors and retail for $70. Celebs like Gwyneth Paltrow and Sara Jessica Parker have been snapped around New York carrying the PVC-free bags.

ECO-HAPPY DRESSES

Pregnant stars such as Christina Aguilera and Halle Berry are going green in deep-V maxi dresses. But, here’s the catch—-the dresses, which are part of Gypsy 05’s “Go Green” line are not maternity wear. Rather, they are just sexy, chic loose fitting frocks made from organic fabrics, natural dyes and are produced in a solar-powered factory. How much greener can you get? The long and elegant dress has also been seen on two very non-pregnant celebrities—-Lauren Conrad and Denise Richards. The dress retails of $100.
