My olfactory receptors have been overly excited ever since I spritzed some Ambrette 9 on my wrists when I was at Barney’s in New York last month. I am historically allergic to practically any fragrance, but Le Labo is mixed fresh and dated so there is no need for preservatives. When I returned home I ordered the light scent and it arrived with personalized printing on the bottle. When I’ve finished it, I will take it back to one of the exclusive locations and simply have it refilled. Now that smells like a good idea to me!

Both of my children had severe asthma (like many children in the U.S. now) and I was able to eradicate it by creating a healthy home (you can read about it in the Healthy Child, Healthy World book). It is easier and less expensive than you think to create a green living environment. You can do one-stop shopping at Spring on Polk Street in San Francisco or search the web (ecofabulous.com and Healthychild.org are reliable resources).

Amy Smart is looking pretty Smart at the Tesla Motors launch party in LA. What is sexier than a gorgeous woman in a smoking hot sports car that doesn’t even burn fuel?

This mouthwatering memoir from Myra Goodman has a harrowing story about success through trailblazing, a guide to understanding organics and some delicious recipes. What’s not to love about Food to Live By-The Earthbound Farm Organic Cookbook?

 

Working in collaboration with renowned pediatricians and environmental watchdog groups, Healthy Child, Healthy World; Creating a Cleaner, Greener, Safer Home by Christopher Gavigan is a book full of eye-opening data. Heartfelt contributions by Gwyneth Paltrow, Brooke Shields, Tom Hanks and many other other notable parents make this an even easier and more inspiring read.

 

 

For the most moisturized, healthy lips try Pangea Organics EcoCentric LipCare in Egyptian Fennel with grapefruit & sweet orange, and the line's Organic Japanese Matcha Tea Mask for baby smooth skin (great for those who have more sensitive skin). The line is available at most health stores and now at many conventional stores as well. The company is considered a leader because of the integrity and efficacy of the products and the simple, down-to-earth (literally) packaging is a plus-- the boxes are not only recyclable and biodegradable, but some are even plantable so you’ll be getting a bonus of usable herbs! Smokin’.

I feel naked if I leave the house without my Jennifer Dawes gorgeous stackable bracelets; mixing the recycled gold yellow, rose, white and green gold bangles. The jewelry designer also offers conflict-free diamond pieces, some with alligator embossing and yet others with geometrical etching.

These Kenta Designs WWII military bags are available in a variety of colored rhinestones and symbols to make repurposing unique and stylish. Every bag is unique (each of British or Dutch army origin) ensuring one-of-a-kind fashion.

Terra Plana's Mumbai Flats are exceedingly comfortable with their chromium-free leather is chromium-free so the soles won’t abrade anything nasty (unless you stepped in something) and are extremely flattering on most feet. I also love the light periwinkle hue…it reminds me of Splendora 1.0.

The process is disturbingly toxic, so opt for vegetable tanned hides for your leather goods. You'll need to do a little research but it is well worth it! Jason Lewis only buys the more eco-friendly alternative, which is ever so sexy.
