It’s not often I come across a piece of jewelry I love that I also can afford…or at least isn’t more than two or three hundred dollars…but I’m consistently impressed by Alex & Ani. I have a delicate expandable ring (like their bracelets) by Alex & Ani that I’ve had for years, and I still love it. Now that they’re making nearly all their pieces with recycled metal, I love it even more! And most of their items are under $100; worthy additions to any eco-friendly wardrobe…

This ring is a new arrival at Shopbop, and only $58. It comes in other colors, but this blue is my favorite – it’s so vibrant and fun!

Must Have: Recycled Leather Belt

Following on yesterday’s roundup of my favorite recycled leather handbag designers, here’s a lovely belt made partly of recycled leather by Helena de Natalio (who also makes amazing bags):

There are different colors, but I am insanely in love with this yellow/brown combination – it would be so beautiful over a white button down oversized shirt…

I’ve posted a lot of recycled leather handbags on Green Grechen – what can I say, I never get tired of finding lovely leather handbags – and as a follow-up to a popular post I did last year on “Reclaimed Chic: The Best Recycled Leather Handbags,” here’s a new rundown of my favorite recycled leather handbag designers:


Ashley Watson

Ashley Watson was the first designer I found a couple of years ago working with recycled leather. I may be wrong, but in my opinion, she paved the way for others to follow, and consistently produces unique, fashionable, high-quality recycled leather bags. She’s sold at nearly every online eco-boutique you can find now – Kaight, Beklina, and Nimli have some of the best selection. My favorite is this Kestrel bag at Beklina for $285:
Ashley Watson: $285


reMade USA

reMade USA is a new recycled leather handbag designer who’s coming strong on to the market. Aside from selling in her own webshop, some of her designs will soon be sold on Barney’s Co-Op. Cool! The Sonoma is one of my favorite designs – the duffel is always an interesting shape. ($395)
reMade USA: $395

I’d love to see how these look on a finger; how fun would one of these be with a maxi dress and big straw hat at a resort in the Caribbean this Winter?? **wishful thinking**
