Summer Sale Items You Can Wear Right Now -- And They're Green!

The weather continues to throw me curveballs so dressing climate appropriate takes way longer than it should. Add to that the unstable economic climate and well...I'm not feeling the whole plunk-the-Amex-card-down for a $500 scarf thing either.

I'd normally turn a blind eye towards summer items right now but I really like the clearance sale goodies at Green With Glamour. I've talked about these folks before -- they're a wonderful source for chic and eco-friendly stuff.

Check out these "season-less" items (okay, maybe the tank isn't season-less but imagine it under a cashmere cardigan...mmmm yum):

Happy Stylish Earth Day!

In commemoration of Earth Day us AIS gals ditched our Midtown digs and hit Bryant Park to reflect on Mother Nature and spend a luxurious lunch hour catching some rays and doing a little people-watching. (Purely RESEARCH we assure you!)

Turns out we weren’t alone in our jonesing for a little green; the Park was chock-full of stylish folks, some of whom you’ll see in upcoming New York Street Beats. In the meantime take a look at our Flickr page to see where Garment District fashionistas meet for lunch and gossip.

And since we’ve no intention of trading in our Manolos for a pair of Birkenstocks anytime soon, we were thrilled to stumble upon this website of eco-friendly wares that manages to blend high style and heartland brilliantly. Green with Glamour we’re officially hooked.
