The Budget Fashionista

Check out what our new blog, The Budget Ecoist, has to offer by way of tips for a green wardrobe, green home, and a green (and fun) Fourth of July!

- Mandinez Mandala is a new line from designer Jivelle Callender. Learn about their organic cotton tees and totes as well as the inspiration behind the intricate and soulful designs on the pieces. These items are friendly both to the environment and to our wallets too--tees start at $28.

- The Fourth of July is a time to celebrate America, so check out these great tips to treat America’s environment well, too. Educate yourself about organic meat, charcoal and gas grills, recycling, and other important aspects of having an eco-friendly holiday. Translate these tips to your graduation and birthday celebrations this summer too, and you’re well on your way to partying like a Budget Ecoist.

- Etsy is a site to buy and sell anything handmade, and The Budget Ecoist discovered a great seller and her innovative merchandise. Case in point: an upcycled bowl made out of rolled up pages of Vogue. What is upcycling, you ask? You’ll have to read about it to find out.
