From the monthly archives:
I’ve been thinking about picking up a pair of these Marais ankle boots for a while now, and just my (and your) luck, that Otte NY is offering 20% off everything (through People Style Watch) with code PPLSW09 through 11/26.
These Oxfords are also very nice – they’re made from canvas, and would be $68 after the code:

I have a love/hate relationship with leather jackets: I love them on others, but have never really liked them on me, and I definitely hate the price. Faux leather jackets are a good alternative, both in terms of price, and animal-friendliness, but I’ve really never been able to find many I’d even consider wearing. But now that eco-fashion is on par design and style-wise with conventional fashion, there are many more options available, and faux leather (polyurethane) is actually more eco-friendly than I thought:
Polyurethane faux leather is a greener alternative to PVC (vinyl) and leather. PVC contains chloride and does not biodegrade. It leaches toxic additives in landfills and emits carcinogenic dioxin when incinerated. Leather production is linked to large amounts of water pollution from waste, and the process of tanning uses numerous chemicals, including heavy metals. Naturally soft and flexible, polyurethane does not require the solvents used for softening PVC and leather. (from Brentano Fabrics)
also: “Polyurethane is biodegradable and is designed to deteriorate after usage”
(**edited** Unfortunately my favorite vegan leather jacket wasn’t really – the picture displayed on the website wasn’t the actual vegan jacket, it was the leather jacket. Oops. I’ve removed it from this list.)
Alpinestars faux leather F1 jacket: $195

Now that my hair is getting longer, I think I might be able to pull-off a cute head band, or even something like this hair band by Stewart + Brown:
Not that I mind wearing hats to keep my ears warm, but as an alternative, this would be cute, no?
