To Covet: Going Grey…as a Neutral

Written on February 17, 2010. Written by Jennifer Nicole.

Sometimes, “covet” isn’t a strong enough word to suggest the impression a trend, or an untrendy “fashion idea,” has made on me.
For the past few weeks, I’ve been obsessed with the color grey.
Maybe I’m just copying Elle (who stopped wearing color for a few months in 2009), or maybe I’m exemplifying a subdued time in [...]

Sustainable Sales: Charmoné – Entire Store 40% Off

Written on December 11, 2009. Written by Jennifer Nicole.

It has been a while since I last mentioned shoe designer Charmoné – almost four months, in fact – so for those of you that haven’t been shown their eco-friendly, vegan awesomeness, here are the basics from that post:

Compassion for Animals: Charmoné shoes are completely vegan friendly, and constructed with Italian microfibers that are breathable, lightweight, colorfast [...]

Flesh It Out: Vegan Boots for Women

Written on December 8, 2009. Written by Jennifer Nicole.

If you say a word, over and over, eventually it starts to sound less like a word, and more like amusement.
Boots. Boots. Boots.
This past weekend, I was playing around on Endless.com, which has been adding more and more eco-conscious shoe designers to its arsenal, and saw the word “boot” so many times that it started [...]

Flesh It Out: Vegan Boots for Men

Written on November 12, 2009. Written by Jennifer Nicole.

All right, men.  You asked, and I deliver: this is part two of Flesh It Out: Vegan Shoes for Men. You all seemed to appreciate Part I (Vegan Dress Shoes), and to be candid (and a little sappy) I’m just pleased to have a decent male following.  Who says intelligent, eco-conscious men aren’t fashionable?

Flesh It Out: Vegan Dress Shoes for Men

Written on October 16, 2009. Written by Jennifer Nicole.

When it comes to shoes, men have always gotten the short end of the aesthetic stick. Women’s shoe designers take more risks, use a greater variety in materials, and have been given much more creative license for as long as fashion has been celebrated – especially in Western society.
The “conscious shopping” craze has catered to [...]

Happy Birthday, Charmoné: Take 25% off!

Written on August 14, 2009. Written by Jennifer Nicole.

Charmoné is the kind of company you want to point out to every eco-fashion skeptic you know.  When people complain that fashionable shoes have to be made out of leather, or that conscious brands are filled with ugly flats and “safe” colors, all I have to do is point them to Charmoné to shut them [...]
