This shoe has been quoted as being the Ultimate travel shoe, it’s a lightweight shoe that will fold down to being virtually flat, but when you need it to wear it will spring right back into the ready to wear position. These shoes are available at Love Those Shoes and would normally cost around $160, but at the moment there is sale on and they are only asking $80 for them!

Well the simple answer is not really, because despite the looks of these wonderful sweet and sticky delights, they are actually bars of soap!
Theses cake shaped bars of soap are made from vegan glycerine by Mollycoddle Soap, you could say that they are good enough to eat, but it is not recommended, prices start at around $3.

I think it was just a matter of time before the queen of Compassion, Oprah, went Vegan. I am not at all suprised to hear this news.
Oprah has always been a champion for the defenseless and innocent, so what better way to fight, than to shun the meat industry and become a plant eater. WooHoo!
Below Oprah explains her decision:

When we see all of those famous actors and beautiful people, promoting their green awareness and in some cases their eco friendly life styles. Many of us tend to take notice, but being a celebrity means that they have certain advantages over other people.
Take the actor Woody Harrelson, we all know that he takes green issues very seriously indeed, so much so that when he travelled to the Cannes Film Festival in France, he some how forgot that he

The Dr Scholls brand is known the world over for creating comfortable shoes, and now they will be known for eco friendly footwear as well. They have recently come out with Renew, a green sandal.
What makes the groovy sandal green? It is made using sustainable wood, has a hemp canvas strap, and uses recycled metal for its buckle. This style of clog sandals usually don’t look comfortable, but surprisingly they are. I like the white strap,

I loved Natalie Portman in Garden State, the indie flick starring Zack Braff. As you may (or may not know) Natalie is a vegan, and has been since childhood. Which explains her recent move of endorsing a vegan shoe line to be sold at Te Casan in New York.

The vegan shoes are high end (which translates to pricey) but they are gorgeous and no animal materials are used in the construction of the shoe. The shoe line consists of

I found a new cookie shop that makes a select variety of cookies, including wheat free and dairy free cookies. It is Indigo Rabbit, yes i know, a wacky name for a cookie shop.
But don’t let the name fool you, these are premium and rich cookies, made with choice ingredients and scrumptious flavors. Such as their Chocolate Pillows, when i think of this one, i immediately think of soft, tender and moist chocolately gooey cookies. “
