Mega Lips
If you're glossing your lips, and sweetheart, I know your lip are glossed, make sure it be natural. Go to BURT. And ask ALBA. Organic so you don't have little chemicals swimming into your spit-stream. Natural so you can brag the sparkles on your kisser are legit made of mica. (Burt’s Bees, Alba Botanica, Desert Essence Organics)

Vegan Queen
Introducing eco- luxurious handbags fit for a queen. Dare I say Vegan Queen outshines your typical it-bag designer? "Eco-friendly, recyclable, non-toxic, organic, sustainable, cruelty-free and made in the USA" according to website.
And incase it's not obvious, you don’t have to be vegan to carry one of these gems. See for yourself! 
The story goes this this: Evelina, vegetarian and designer found there to be a gaping hole where socially conscious, animal-friendly top notch accessories should be. So she started Vegan Queen. Pictured above is the Diamond Clutch made out of 100%-free eco-polymer, embossed vegetal leather, and lined with organic cotton terry. It is even shipped to you using carbon offsetting methods! Lets be clear here, mother earth would prefer you to buy one.

Chico Bags
Never leave the house without at least one. I keep mine snapped onto my key chain. Chico bags save (little tree) lives. Do it. Collect bags in rainbow colors at: http://store.chicobag.com/Winter Prep
It would do you good to invest in a vest. Specifically, a second hand signature (crazy) vest. Pictured here is a vegan choice made of fake fur, reversable, and cozy as a mama gorilla. Chic like no one else.
