I love jewelry as much as the next girl, but honestly, most of it is boring; everything looks the same, or it’s so cheaply made, it’s obvious. Not so with SURevolution. I noticed the jewelry first, because it’s beautiful, and fashionable, second, because it’s ethical & eco-conscious.

SURevolution is a mission-driven company, focusing on five pillars of sustainability:

  1. Respect people – create relationships with the artisans who create their products.
  2. Respect cultures - provide artisans an opportunity to make a living from traditional crafts.
  3. Respect nature – work with responsible production methods.
  4. Upcycled – give new life to used materials.
  5. Use certified materials – include certified organic cotton and FSC certified wood.

All of that is ALMOST enough to make you want to support the company anyway, but what’s key is that the jewelry is BEAUTIFUL. I received two of the “snake” necklaces to review (above); these are made from brass caps and are kind of “slinky” and moveable, which makes them interesting to wear, but also attention-grabbers! Every time I’ve worn a necklace I get comments/questions….

I also love SURevolution’s wood pieces, rings, cuffs…take a look, they’re so unique & stunning. You won’t find this jewelry on anyone else unless you have some truly fashionable friends, and you better get ready for lots of attention. (you know you love the attention :)

Please take a moment to check out the site, read more about the company (Lauren Bush is on the Board) and while you’re there if you find something you can’t live without, use code grechen20 for 20% off!!!

Hemp, Hemp, Hemp!!! {handbags}

If you’ve been reading Green Grechen for any time now, you already know my feelings on hemp:

  • It’s more environmentally friendly than organic cotton or bamboo
  • It lasts longer than cotton (organic or otherwise)
  • In my opinion, hemp represents the best hope for future clothing sustainability

And thanks to Nimli, now it’s a little easier to do your part and start adding some hemp to your wardrobe with Hemptress bags. (use code HEMPTRESS20 for 20% off all Hemptress bags through 11/15)

I’m partial to this one, because, well, honestly, it doesn’t scream HIPPIE to me – it would be very easy to incorporate into a modern, edgy wardrobe, adding some great texture and interest:

One of my FAVORITE online boutiques, Sodafine, recently launched a newly re-designed site and is offering 20% off all orders over $100 with code “grechen20.”

In the vintage department, I am TOTALLY smitten with this floral dress (I’ve been wanting something pretty and feminine to wear with jackets this Fall):

And I LOVE this leather wallet made from scraps/reclaimed leather pieces:
