Green Options

Sometimes I find myself in quite a rut- focusing on the negative aspects of my life rather than the positive. The past year of my life however, has been quite incredible (and I need to remind myself that.) Jobs have fallen in my lap and people have been placed in my path for a reason. And at times, when I get muddled down by negative thoughts I have to remind myself of the opportunities I’ve been so gracefully handed. Which quite a few, wouldn’t have happened without my main source of income.

My full time job (amongst many small ones) has been working at the eco-friendly fashion boutique, Eco-Tique, in St. Paul, MN. During the past year working here, I have had the wonderful opportunity of meeting Terri Bly, owner of The Nature of Beauty, and being able to work not only for Eco-Tique but her company as well. So today, I give a shout out to Eco-Tique’s top fall must haves which can be found at The Nature of Beauty.

Terri Bly introduces the new eco-friendly T.O.T.E. collection from fashion-forward handbag company, Urban Junket. Made with 70% recycled materials and organic cotton, their stylish, gorgeous and roomy laptop bag is certain to replace the boring, sterile bag you now use for business trips and other adventures.

Ecotique and The Nature of Beauty announce their Eco-Design Contest, giving creative types everywhere the opportunity to submit design ideas for an exclusive reusable tote to be sold at Ecotique and The Nature of Beauty, displayed at their shoppe on Grand Avenue in St. Paul, and on The Nature of Beauty’s home page.

Terri Bly, president of The Nature of Beauty, raves about ecoSkin’s earth-friendly, ultra-comfortable yet highly fashionable clothing line. Made from 100% biodegradable and renewable fabrics, this ground-breaking company is taking eco-friendly clothing to a new level of chic.

The Nature of Beauty announces its new partnership with Ecotique, offering online customers eco-friendly beauty products, clothing, bed and bath products, and other accessories.
