If any of you are looking for men’s fashion for your SO, then look no further. I have recently learned of a great men’s fashion line called Triko. Owner Hector Estrada has designed for some of the biggest names in street-wear before giving it all up to pursue his desire to create “premium street-wear with sole.” He uses many eco-friendly materials in his products such as Tagua (aka vegetable ivory), coconut shells and organic cotton, this is truly a brand to be appreciated. In addition, Triko uses some of the proceeds from their earnings to adopt animals through the Defender of Wildlife adoption program. They currently sponsor Pinstripe (a majestic tiger), and Bowtie (an Emperor Penguin). This is truly a company that practices the concept of “Style with Conscience.”

I have chosen a few of my favorite items to woo your mate with. I love the Triko Rabari. It is definitely one of my favorite pieces. This shirt is Zen cut versus street-wear, and the combination is hot. I love the designs and colors.

Although it is hard to tell in this picture, but this great classic collared Triko Lares shirt has a subtle pinstripe and the buttons are made of Tagua. This shirt comes with a message on the back, check out the site to see what it says.

I love the Triko El Santo jacket. The color combination is great and I love the splash of color at the top of the jacket. This is a classic “Eddie Bauer” style jacket done better.

Okay, so normally I am the one with all the fashion advice, but I really need everyone’s help. I found this absolutely gorgeous Seed Halter Dress by Thieves the other day, but have yet been able to find a pair of vegan shoes to go with it. This is not an easy color to match, but this gorgeous dress made of soy organic cotton and spandex is so perfect for summer that it is a must have if the right shoes can be found.

Hope you all had a great weekend! I know I did. It was busy but good. It was brought to my attention the other day that the MUDD Ladylike shoes are not vegan:( Unfortunately, I somehow misse the last line in the description that said “flat leather traction soles.” This makes me so sad, because the shoes are so beautiful. Alas, there are many gorgeous vegan options to choose from. I can’t understand why a manufacturer would make the upper, lining, and insole out of faux leather, then add leather to the soles. Makes absolutely no sense to me.

To make up for the vegan faux paux, I bring you these gorgeous made for fall Madden Girl shoes. Love them all so much. The first shoe is this gorgeous Madden Girl G Vanila red rounded toe pump with a kitten heel. I think these shoes would look fabulous with, well, my feet. I could wear these to work no problem. They are sooooo cute.

How about these adorable Madden Girl G Skarlt pumps. The faux lace trim and bow make this shoe a must have. These shoes are so feminine.

OMG, MUDD has a couple of new styles that recently came out for the fall and they are absolutely gorgeous. I love the rich colors and new designs.

How absolutely cute are these MUDD Ladylike peep toe slingbacks? I love the laced detailing around the edge on the top. These are absolutely fabulous and I am so happy that they are vegan.

I must have these gorgeous MUDD Dabria peep toes. They are so beautiful. I love the rich coloring and the faux patent and fabric design with faux lace and bow detailing makes these shoes an absolute must have. I would say they are perfect for work, but they are almost too gorgeous to wear to work, if that is even possible.

Oh, I am so excited because I found another great brand of shoes that makes vegan alternatives. This always makes me so happy. I was browsing around for fabulous vegan sandals and came across these super cute Akademik Sandals.

Oh, how I love these super hot Akademiks Sexy sandals. They remind me of a great pair of Joan and David Sandals that I came across the other day, but they are so much better because they are 100% totally vegan. These fabulous slingbacks also come in black with faux cork trim, but these red ones leave me drooling.

Today is my hubbies b-day and he asked me to post about men’s vegan shoes today. Well since it is his birthday, I could hardly say no. My husband is very picky when it comes to his clothes and his shoes, so I am sure not all of these shoes will be to his liking, but I am hoping that he will find something cool, so that I can get him to slowly transition out of his old disgusting dead animal flesh shoes. Finding attractive men’s vegan shoes was no easy task. It is definitely much easier to find women’s shoes that are vegan, then mens. But alas, I think I found a decent variety, though the dress shoes actually turned out to be a much better score then the casual shoes. Go figure.

Starting with more casual, summertime sandals, I have definitely found a few that I at least think look pretty cool.

My hubby may go for something like these great Organic Hemp Sandals from Downward Bound. They are so Woody Harrelson. They have a great style, and the fact that they are slip ons is totally a plus.

Though my husband love’s huarche style shoes, I seriously doubt that he would be too into these Huarches Organic Hemp Sandals, but you never know. Maybe he will add a comment to this post to let everyone know which shoes are his favorite pick (hint, hint honey). Anyway, I definitely like these shoes and think that would be very comfortable for summer.

I recently received an email about Yosifa Penina. Of course, I receive a lot of emails about new companies and products, but this particular company definitely made me take notice. Yosifa Penina makes a great line of accessories using completely animal-free materials. The brains behind this operation is Jules Sherman. Ms. Sherman graduated with honors from the Rhode Island School of Design and has been very busy ever since designing products for major retailers, such as Eddie Bauer. Using a pliable PVC based material, Ms. Sherman has a created an innovative and artistic line of accessories, such as great hair clips and belts, and her product line is expanding. Currently, she just makes the tags for luggage, but she is hoping to expand soon to make a Yosifa Penina original line of luggage. This is a must check out site.

Here is a sample of some of the great products that can be found on the Yosifa Penina Website:

How cute are these hair clips. The Yosifa Penina Vines Barrette (top) and the Yosifa Penina Aztec Barrette (bottom) are absolutely fabulous. I would definitely check out the site to see all of the other great designs.

What I truly love though are the belts. It is so hard to find cute and fashionable belts as a vegan. These great belts will add color and style to any outfit. I love the mosaic design of the Yosifa Penina Glass Belt. It is very original and very chic.

My favorite is this edgy Yosifa Penina Irish Lass Belt (check out the other colors available). The design is beautiful and is perfect for a rocker chic style. It would also be a beautiful addition to a classy dress or skirt.

To get an edgier look, pair the Irish Lass Belt with this cool Go Veg Organic Cotton Tank

and these super hip Of the Earth Organic Cotton Jeans.

Top this outfit with these sexy Rampage Lucee wedged slingbacks and

this adorable Rampage Underground Plaid Satchel and you are definitely ready for a night out on the town.

Now all you need is a great black faux leather jacket! Don’t forget to check out the Yosifa Penina website, it is definitely worth it.

I am finally getting over this nasty summer time cold. It is still hanging on, but at least it is getting better. I have barely been able to breath for days and haven’t gotten out of the house much, because I have just felt to crappy. Anyone, this blog is not about me and my cold, so onto the fashion.

It is not often that I come across clothing items that are so totally eco-fashionable as this awesome summer Linen Open Back Dress by Thieves. I love the black and white coloring, which allows it to be a little dressier then if it were in another color. The curve hugging fit and sexy straps in the back will definitely let you show off your beautiful vegan-friendly body.

I absolutely love this Guess Bay Handbag in Natural Straw/White. I think it is a perfect match for the linen dress above. It screams of summer and I love the fact that the faux leather is minimal on this purse, which makes it slightly more eco-friendly.

Okay, so there isn’t much that is eco-friendly about these adorable Delicious Gel Sandals. Thank goodness there are animal-friendly, because they are so totally cute. Talk about a nice dressy summer sandal . . . Love them.

Just a quick note to let you all know that I haven’t gone missing again, I just have a terrible summer time cold. I am hoping to be able to do a post tomorrow:) Hope you all are having a great week!

I was recently contacted by the owner’s of Accessory Bug. I don’t know if you have checked out their site, but they have some of the most fabulous purses ever. There is only one purse that I have seen in their entire stock that actually has any animal product, it is a fur purse made with real rabbit fur. Otherwise, everything else is completely cruelty-free. I would stay away from anything that says faux fur also, because we all know the controveries regarding faux fur at the time, especially if the “faux fur” is coming from many Asian companies. These companies were selling fur from animals as “faux fur.” Otherwise, shop to your hearts desire with these beautiful designer inspired purses. They even have a collection of cruelty-free Valentino purses, which I absolutely love.

If you are looking for a bargain, you can use one of the three following coupon codes through the month of July and get a discount on their already reasonable prices:

SUM15 will give you 15% everything in stock.
MSJ10 will give you 10% off your entire order.
SHIP4Fee will give you free shipping on all orders over $80, which isn’t difficult to do with purses that are this perfect.

Anyway, here is a sample of some of the purses that I loved best, though I really do love them all.

I so love this White Edith Designer Inspired Bag. The black and white coloring is so retro. This bag would be perfect for evening or office wear, or take it with you to that PTA meeting and everyone will be talking about great your purse is.

What girl doesn’t love a beautiful Valentino Bag? Make it cruelty-free and you have the perfect bag. This authentic Valentino Work Hobo Handbag would be a beautiful addition to any casual chic outfit. Perfect for a day out shopping and casual lunches with friends.

My sources tell me that evening bags are the hot item right now. If you can’t tell from my blog I love the color pink and of course when I saw this beautiful Pink Rhinestone Inspired Clutch it was love at first sight. I love the bow and rhinestone detailing. This fabulous clutch also comes in blue, red, gold and silver. You can have this purse to match almost any outfit.

This Red Wave Canvas Floral Print Designer Inspired Handbag is so fun. It would add so much color to a neutral outfit. Pair it with beige, black or white and you can take a bland outfit and add so much visual interest.

As always, I saved my favorite purses for last. I absolutely adore this Brown Summer Woven Straw Bag with Faux Croc Trim. This bag is so stylish without detracting from your outfit. I love the neutral coloring. This bag is so perfect to wear to the office. Love it!



But nothing compares to this great authentic Valentino Satin Handles Satchel. This handbag comes in black or white, and quite frankly I am not sure which I like better, they are both so great. I just love the satin, scarflike handles with the beautiful hoop detailing. This will definitely be my next purchase.

Of course, no post would be complete without a great pair of shoes. Pair any of these fab purses with these beautiful Charmone Thistle sandals and you will an outfit that screams class. Okay, so maybe you don’t want to pair them with the pink or floral purse. These sandals are soooo cute. I love the abstract design across the foot and the ankle strap. These shoes are hot.

Have a fabulous weekend everyone and happy shopping. Make sure to stop by Accessory Bug and take advantage of this months coupons.
