Simply recycling just doesn’t do it anymore.  Now, if you want to be truly environmentally responsible, you have to eat local, carry your own reusable water bottle, and drive a hybrid car.  Actually, forget about driving entirely and get a bike…a used bike…rebuilt from the parts of other trash bikes.  There’s a lot to keep track of, and endless advice to be dispensed, but every vegan and her yoga teacher are qualified to do it.

I am not a yoga teacher.  I am not a vegan, nor do I ever want to participate in a recipe exchange with one.  I am however, a girl who knows shoes.  So I’m going to pass this little environmentally friendly fashion tidbit onto you.

Want to do your part?  Wear sustainable footwear!  Note: I would never be making this suggestion if these sneaks weren’t cute.  Sometimes I leave the lights on when I go out.
