wedding: vintage slipdress

image:image: ktjean
Are you having an unconventional wedding? I have a friend getting married soon and she’s got the hottest little cocktail like dress instead of the conventional long white thing.
This dress is certainly not your average wedding dress. It could probably pass as a party dress even if there’s no ring on your finger.

bamboo musa dress by elroy

This fantastic dress by Leanne McElroy has great pleats all over and is made of super soft bamboo.
I love the color. It’s a great casual summer dress for barbeques and picnics.
Bamboo is a fantastic renewable resource for fabric and other things. It grows quickly and bamboo knit fabric gets softer every time you wash it. […]

hemp: hempress dress by patagonia

A perfect dress for summer. Made by the awesome Patagonia, I like the ruffle at the bottom is a great detail to a otherwise plain dress.
It’s made of hemp and recycled polyester (not quite sure what it’s recycled from, anyone have an idea?) so it’s soft and breathable. Plus, a often neglected part, those spaghetti […]

gypsum dress

Gotta wedding to go to? This dress by EcoSkin has great potential. You can throw a cardigan over it if it’s a day wedding and show yourself off later. I love the back, it looks so prim in the front!
Made of bamboo, tencel and spandex, so it’ll be the comfiest dress you own.
$152 Extra small […]

Stewart & Brown Racerback Jumper

I love the look of the racerback? Remember the racerback vest that won a challenge for Victorya on Project Runway this season? That’s because other people love the racerback too! Everyone loves a racerback!
Which is why I really love this organic cotton racerback jumper by Stewart & Brown.

Leggings, boots and a long-sleeve tee or thermal […]

Lara Miller Erin Dress

How could I not write about this dress? It’s named after me! (Okay, it’s really not, but I’m going to pretend it is!)
If Lara Miller knew me, she would have made this dress a bit louder and more interesting (ha!) and it would probably clash with everything.
But this 67% bamboo, 30% organic cotton, […]

Lara Miller Kyro Dress

This Lara Miller dress is fun and flirty and a perfect look for spring! Dress it down with a cardy and flats or wedges or–oooh!–gladiator sandals (I love this trend!) or up with some heels and it’s good to go for day or night!
It’s super versatile, can be worn as a halter dress or as […]

The green apple color of this sweet dress gives it a bit of a punch! It’s the perfect dress to pair with some summer shorts for that afternoon family picnic. It’d work well with some leggings and platform Mary Janes for a night out too!

Sweet Heather Jersey Dress

This 100% organic cotton sweet empire waist dress reminds me of maidens and damsels–in a good way! Maid Marian kicked butt!

To go super girly, pick the cotton candy pink version, add some wedge heels and daisies and you’re golden. If you want to be bad-ass, like Maid Marian, pick the grey one, add a leather […]
