The holidays are creeping up fast, Thanksgiving is right around the corner. Many are busy planning what they are going to cook, what they are going to wear…and everyone’s thinking about gifts they are going to give.
One thing you may not have considered is your serving dishes or your table settings. Do they match, do you have enough? If you’re like me the once complete matching set has been reduced to bits and pieces over the years as things get dropped, broken and lost. I’m lucky to have a complete set of dishes for 6…and matching serving bowls… forget it. Good thing I’m not planning any large, fancy get togethers this season, but that could all change with a phone call, email, or spur of the moment idea.

I often think about how ‘feel good’ a one-stop shop online would be if it could really answer my call for style. Just imagine…..eco-friendly cosmetics, jewelery, clothing, all the things every girl looks for, under a single cyber roof. Folks I have good news: Eco Zen Boutique, a socially conscious, Arizona based green fashion boutique owned and operated by eco-preneur Tandy Stepp, has recently opened a new online store at ecozenboutique.com.

Check out the new Eco Fashion World site. EFW knows, “just like the first industrial revolution started in the fashion industry, so will the second that leads us to sustainability.” —Cradle to Cradle, Michael Braungart and William McDonough. EFW realizes that we are all linked, from “New York to New Delhi, Paris to Pakistan, Brazil to Bangladesh, Vancouver to Vietnam, by the very strings of our garments.”
The Eco Fashion World glossary is an exemplary resource! Take a look. The site is filled with inspiring green styles, expert advice and brilliant budding blogs.“Get the scoop on sustainable style, browse our unique and quickly expanding eco fashion guide and get inspired by the true visionaries in our magazine.” Shown here on the cover is a Lelia Hafzi gown design.

Karen Stewart and Howard Brown, partners in life and work, call themselves “Organic Pioneers” because when they began in 2002 there wasn’t much demand for things like sustainable fabrics and eco-conscious style. They decided to break out of the typical textile mold, had a vision for something greater and have undoubtedly been trailblazers in the industry.
I was given an exclusive sneak peak of their Fall Collection which hits stores within the next couple weeks. You can expect the same quality craftsmanship and romantic looks that are quintessential Stewart+Brown.
Last week I had the opportunity to interview Howard Brown. Check out the interview below…
