With Earth Day just around the corner...

I decided to blog about cute products that can help one be more eco-friendly. Without further adieu here are my picks:
Beadforlife.org's colorful bracelet and necklaces are made from RECYCLED paper! BeadforLife purchases also give back to those less fortunate. Ugandan women hand make the beads and the profits provide sustainable income for them to support themselves and their families.
There is absolutely no way you can say a brown paper bag is cuter than Vera Bradley's pretty lunch totes! Oh and I'm pretty sure trees will thank you for not wasting them to carry your lunch to school or work everyday. :)
Eco-friendly stationary products like this adorable notebook! Besides being made of recycled materials the other thing that makes this little guy awesome is that I rescued him from the CLEARANCE section of Target!!! I probably need another notebook like I need a hole in the head, but it was only $1.74 and there was no way I could leave the store without it. I'll admit I was sucked in by the adorable owl on the front cover! But really can you blame me?
I swear those talented people on
Etsy come up with the cutest darn things. I recently found these cute reuse-able sandwich pockets in the shop
Freckleduck. I know you are thinking cute but not practical. WRONG you are. The pouch is lined in nylon making it super easy to keep clean. The fact that they are
only $6 makes me super tempted to buy one. I mean c'mon who wouldn't want to dress their sandwich up in style? And think of all those plastic bags you'd end up saving. :)
An eco-friendly home for your stash of makeup! This cosmetic bag from Alicia Silverstone's line for ecoTOOLS™ is just too cute for words. LOVE IT.
I just stumbled upon these
GlassDharma glass straws when reading
And Her Little Dog Too. Leslie is currently hosting a
giveaway which ends Friday for a $25 dollar gift certificate to buy your very own eco-friendly straws! Seriously before tonight I wasn't even aware such a thing as glass straws existed!
See how fun being eco-friendly is? :)

I just love the bright flower embroidery detailing on this simple white tunic.
An abstract flower print dress would certainly brighten up any Spring/Summer wardrobe!
A more subtle dress with it's charming little flower print. I love how the pockets are made from a contrasting material with larger flowers. The jacket is also the perfect addition to toughen up this girlie dress!
This flower print tunic and khakis combo is perfect for a day out, whether it be shopping or a picnic in the park. 
A simple faded blue tank tucked in a bright abstract floral print skirt give the illusion that this is a dress and not two separate pieces. LOVING this combo! 
Never underestimate simplistic. With only flower detailing on the neckline this white dress is still one of my favorites from the collection!
Another dress I really like from The Garden Collection. The light pastel colors are perfect for spring! And how cute are those sleeves? Ruffles are a trend I am loving!
Last but not least my final pic is this lovely tiered floral print dress with a V-neck that is paired with another jacket from the collection. This floral print dress is just too cute to cover up though!
