A double-whammy dazzling-discount Monday treat!

by Naomi

Hi guys. Firstly I must apologise for the lack of Monday treat last week - I was poorly sick and not up to thinking, let alone blogging. But fear not as I am going to make it up to you with a double-whammy Monday treat!

I found this sexy little vest at Silvr Lining, an American eco-conscious design company. It's $120, made from organic cotton, and ultimately is grunge-chic meets gothic-hotness! In fact methinx my fellow blogger (and lover of all things sexy and punk), Lorna may particularly like it.

It's perfection layered over hotpants or skinnies and for day or night.

The second treat I bring to you is a special offer!!!!

Black Dog Publishing is re-releasing the wonderful Eco Chic: The Fashion Paradox, written by Sandy Black and is offering all Eco Goddesses 40% off!

The book is a great introduction to the way that the fashion industry operates and the many complex issues surrounding the notion of eco-fashion: from the natural vs synthetic debate to the issues involved with donating unwanted textiles to third word countries.

It has some really interesting insights into companies such as THTC and Gossypium, and is packed with beautiful photography of eco-fashion creations, making it a great coffee table number and one to leave out for your friends and family to flick through!

RRP is £24.95, but for you guys it is available for only £14.97 - simply email jess@blackdogonline.com and quote 'Eco Goddess Fashion Offer' to take advantage!

Have a great week!

Sale time!

by Naomi

Nothing makes a slightly damp and grey week seem brighter than a great sale!

Prompted by my recent holiday, I have picked out some Cote D'Azur inspired finds: think French riviera chic, sophisticated and versatile but with a playful summer vibe.

This dress and cardi combo by Lowie is perfect for cool summer and autumn days. Made from finely knitted organic cotton, the elasticated waist and striped collar on the dress are flattering and feminine (£158 to £79). The cardi (£95) is the perfect partner!

I love this stripy tie top (£98 to £49), also by Lowie, which can be teamed with these beautiful sandals by vegan brand Beyond Skin (£135 to £71) for a look that epitomises eco cool summer-casual.

OK, so it's not on sale, but it is gorgeous! My lust-have item of the season is this beautiful silk blue band panama by Pachacuti. At £122 it may make your purse cower in fear, but it is rollable (comes with instructions and the optional extra of a box) meaning you will never again have to suffer the how-the-heck-do-I-pack-this-hat holiday dilemma!

Furthermore, Pachacuti works with women's cooperatives in Ecuador, ensuring Fair Trade and supporting pensions, developments, education and healthcare initiatives. It uses sustainable raw materials, minimises waste, and doesn't use harmful chemicals in the production process. What more could you ask for?!

Facts: organic cotton by Lowie, vegan sandals by Beyond Skin, Fair Trade panama hat by Pachacuti.

Get foxy for the Fairtrade Fortnight!

by Naomi

There are lots of things going on in celebration of the Fairtrade Fortnight and here is one of my favourites! Aura Que makes some delightful creations (handbags, purses and scarves) by working with fair trade producers and small family businesses in Nepal, and is offering 10 per cent off until the 7th of March.

I particularly like the Bucket Bag, incorporating leather and fabric made from banana fibre yarn which is 100 per cent natural and produced sustainably. You can use either the long or short handles and they are available in slate blue (pictured), beige and black for £149 before discount. With free P&P what more do you need?!

Facts: Aura Que. Sustainably produced yarn, fair trade producers.

New Year.... new lil black dress!!

By Lorna

Fear not ecogodesses! ...amidst all the chaos of the January sales I have searched the globe for the best LBDs. Whether you rock your style simple and classic like a modern day Audrey Hepburn or you prefer an edgier catwalk look, I have found the perfect LBD for you... and naturally they are all on sale!

My fav is the ‘Layla Dress’ by Ascension. It is a really beautiful sophisticated cut with an obi style belt tie to nip your waist in. Each dress is carefully hand embroidered by Indian Artisans with gorgeous tonal stitch detail around the neckline, shoulder and belt. This means that each dress is unique and you can wear it with pride knowing its fair trade! Now only £54.50 (was £109.00) at www.ascensiononline.com

Next up is the totally gorgeous People Tree ‘Strapless Party Dress’. The 100% silk dress is sure to steal the party limelight, it has pleat front detail, a ruched back panel and feature pockets. The cloth is hand woven in Bangladesh and the straps are removable making this dress super cute and adaptable! Was £160 now £80 at www.ascensiononline.com

And finally, no ‘top ethical LBD’ list would be complete without a nod to designer Julia Smith... This edgy dress with on-trend accentuated shoulders is made from recycled polyester and has long sleeves, which can be turned up to reveal batik lining. Rock this attention grabbing dress with black opaque’s and killer heels. £240 (was £320) at www.fashion-conscience.com

Ascension ‘Layla dress’ available from www.ascensiononline.com

Wrap up warm Eco Goddess style... with 20% off all knitwear at Ascension!!!

By Lorna

Fantastic news Eco Goddesses.... you now have two brilliant excuses to buy a lush new cardigan! Firstly- as of this week the weather is ‘officially’ freezing and Secondly- (and much more importantly) our favourite high street ethical retailer Ascension are now running a 20% off promotion on all knitwear until Tuesday 15^th December! You can head into their store on St. Christopher’s Place, London W1 or check out their gorgeous selection of organic, hand knitted and fairly traded pieces online at www.ascensiononline.com 

My personal fav is the Ascension Grace cardigan! It has a really flattering shape, is made from a blend of organic cotton and lambswool and is ridiculously wearable. I have a feeling if you invest in this, you may well live in it till summer! It looks super chic with skinny jeans... dressed up with an organic shirt and some glam jewellery for work... over a little black sparkly party dress.... (The list goes on!)

Also, as if that wasn’t enough.....if you pop into store on the afternoon of the 15^th, you might be treated to a glass of organic bubbly, mince pies and gingerbread as a pre-Christmas shoppers treat! Thanks Ascension!!

You can find the grace cardigan (now only £55.20, down from £69) and lots more seriously chic knitwear pieces at http://www.ascensiononline.com/
