The double ring thing. Two finger rings are the newest jewelry trend to sweep over Hollywood and we can see their appeal! A little different, catching the eye and receiving some attention- it is no wonder celebs are sporting them. Ready to get your paws on one… snatch up a custom made one from Pretty Birdie. Their two finger ring is made of scrap wood from a local guitar shop, inlaid with scrap metal, veneer, and tiny nails. Definitely an original piece!

Forth of July Fingernails. Red nails never go out of style, but they do pick up steam during certain times of the year. The forth of July is one such time and opting for a ‘race car red’ is the best way to sport this classic trend with a modern twist. Keep the nails short and well manicured, and then apply two coats of butter LONDON in Pillar Box Red. All butter LONDON nail varnishes are 3-free (nail color without formaldehyde, toluene or DBP), so you can be the non-toxic beauty queen!

Feather Frills. Diane Vreeland said, “You gotta have style. It helps you get up in the morning.” We couldn’t agree more and signature style like the one-off feather earring makes a style statement that is as light and fun as the feathers themselves. Sport the Single Om Feather Earring from Alkemie Jewelry whose line is made from reclaimed jewelry. Style tip: wear your hair down in natural summer waves so that the earring doesn’t stand out too much but rather sparks intrigue.

A leading fashion capital of the world, New York boasts a ‘wear anything’ attitude and is chalked full of style signatures! FASHIONmeGREEN sought out a true NYC style influncer, Teen Vogue and Style.com’s PR Director Eleanor Banco for the NY Project and eco-fashion makeover.

A self-proclaimed fashion lover, Eleanor’s style balances high fashion statements with an easy sophistication. We’ve labeled her the queen of accessories with a Parisian High Fashion Ghetto Fabulous aesthetic! Click on the flip book below to pull up the full screen view and peruse this New York fashionista’s sustainable style makeover using ten of New York’s hottest eco-designers.

The best part about eco-fashion is that it tells two stories. The first is a style story. Creative Director at Barney’s Julie Gilhart adeptly said, “Style is particular to each person and personifies the way we put a look together and want to be seen.” The second story is the green story- the intimate process of production behind the style and the creative influence. Below, we’ve listed the ten eco-designers sourced for the NY Project and the green credentials backing their green stories.

Bodkin- Bodkin takes as its point of departure the finest and most innovative sustainability-oriented fabrics in the world, from the best new technologies (such as post-consumer recycled polyester) to handloomed weaves from collectives in India, domestic organic cotton dyed by hand, and decades-old salvaged textiles. All pieces are made in the United States.

Cri de Coeur- Cri de Coeur is a French expression that translates literally to “cry from the heart.” A vegan shoe line with sustainable fabric sourcing at it’s core, Cri de Coeur provides shoes that meet both the highest ethical and style standards.

Doucette Duvall- Doucette Duvall practices environmental and social responsibility by manufacturing the entire collection in New York City’s historic garment district, using pre-existing fabric and trim, shunning extraneous garment bags and hang tags, and shipping in recycled boxes only.

H Fredriksson- H Fredriksson is a collection designed with a modern, artistic and sustainable conscious purpose. The collection is manufactured in New York City using sustainable fabrics and production methods. The Swedish designer Helena Fredriksson lives and works in Brooklyn.

Lauren Pierce- The Lauren Pierce collection is made with environmentally friendly fabrics of the highest quality that are hand-crafted by artisans from around the world.

Lizzie Fortunato Jewels- Lizzie Fortunato Jewels draws on the priciple that high-end jewelry is not limited to diamonds, and features industrial, found and reclaimed materials in exceptionally fashion-forward designs.

Osborn Design- Osborn Design showcases an evolving line of products through the continuous collaboration with friends, economically disadvantaged artisans and creative entities.

Stella McCartney- Sourcing organically for her collections as well as providing women with leather alternatives for shoes and handbags with high fashion designs, Stella McCartney is leading the way in eco-focused high fashion.

Study-Study is both a design firm which produces seasonal sustainable clothing collections AND an incubator for young talent to grow within the sustainable design community.  For the collection, designer Tara St James applies no waste patternmaking techniques, uses organic and deadstock fabrics and recycled or vintage trims.

Suno New York- Sourcing the natural resources, talent and goodwill of Kenya, Suno employs local Kenyans to showcase their artistry for the production of the Suno collection. 

Style is the manifestation of self-knowledge and a creative spirit. Now, more than ever, that same sense of self resonates beyond the outer appearance and reaches a deeper source of identity through the knowledge and support of eco-fashion.
