When I saw this link sent to me from a gf, I went giddy seeing Joaquin cleaned up, the crazy washed out from his eyes and ready to be my baby daddy again.  My thrill was immediately replaced by horror.   I have forced myself to watch Earthlings and many other animal cruelty videos but I had to close my eyes several times while watching this one.

It’s one thing to kill an animal humanely (is there such a thing?) for our luxury fashion addictions but to cut up and skin an animal while it is alive and leave if for dead, sometimes for up to 4 days???….words just can’t explain.

I just checked all of my shoes and bags and realized I do have a clutch made from what looks like alligator skin- I got it from a styling gig.  It’s getting donated TODAY.

WARNING:  This video is EXTREMELY GRAPHIC!!!  But, I still suggest you watch it.  You don’t have to stop buying or throw anything out- but at least you’ll be conscious of how it came to be.

Kielh’s has joined forces with Pharrell, Julian Moore, Jeff Koons and Malia Jones to raise awareness for Earth Day by having each of them design a label for their limited edition Acai Damage-Protecting Toning Mist which is scheduled to be released this April.  Kiehl’s will donate $200,000 to the Rainforest Alliance. Price: $26.

Just like my pretend lover Michael K from Dlisted says, “What the hell kind of GD outfit is this”?????  Most people say they wear fur to keep warm, but this?  I just can’t..

The prettiest people do the ugliest things 
For the road to riches and diamond rings
. . .
We’ll buy a lot of clothes but we don’t really need ‘em 
Things we buy to cover up what’s inside

How smoking hot is Kelly Rutherford, the mom from Gossip Girl?  I had the pleasure of co-styling Kelly along side Sielian Li (from Sielians Vintage Apparel) for this shoot and I must say, she took us all by surprise when she showcased her fun and sexy side for the camera.

Go to Coco Eco to view the rest of the Kelly’s pics and here to read her interview.

We just finished shooting Kelly Rutherford from Gossip Girl.  Stay tuned for the issue to drop on January 15th.

Each issue we work on gets more exciting than the last and this one was no exception. Sarah Griffin and I co-styled Alicia Silverstone who was an absolute sweetheart to work with.

She gave us health tips from her book The Kind Diet, dished out some of her beauty secrets and even shared some delicious vegan truffles with us. I didn’t know such a thing existed.

Go to Coco Eco to read her interview and check out the rest of the holiday issue while you’re at it.

I don’t even watch the show but gotdamn!

I know winter is approaching but remember, no one in the world needs a mink coat but a mink.

And in case anyone is wondering why fur is bad (what planet do you live on?), please have a gander at the cruel and horrific video below.

I haven’t followed a mini-series in quite some time but I’m definitely going to tune in to “V” featuring one of Coco Eco Mag’s past “green” cover girls, Elizabeth Mitchell.

I loved this show as a kid so I hope it doesn’t disappoint as an adult

Watch the first episode this Tuesday.

Last night I stepped out with Anna Griffin (www.cocoecomag.com) to Alicia’s book signing at the Stella McCartney store. (♥-♥-♥)

Here is the long awaited Maria Menounos story I styled for Coco Eco Magazine. There were so many good things about this shoot. Maria was an absolute sweetheart to work with and all of the amazing eco-lines we used fit her like a glove (a stylists dream). We shot in the beautiful, solar powered Marrakesh House and had an electric powered, bright orange Tesla delivered specifically for the shoot.

Happy 1st Anniversary Coco Eco mag!
