Your Guide to Green Style: Evening

This black jumpsuit looks like it could easily be picked up from your local department store. However, don’t let the lux appearance fool you. Made from bamboo tencel spandex, ecoSkin’s Birch Jumpsuit ($180) is dyed, woven, and sewn in the USA. No sweat shops went into the making of the skinny leg suit.

It’s not the first time we’ve featured Beyond Skin‘s vegan heels. Yesterday they’re great green wedges made the “day date” guide. Today, their Red Ruby Pumps ($239) are the perfect pairing to add a pop of color to the versatile evening outfit. The pseudo-suede exterior may disguise for leather, but it’s actually made from recycled bottle caps. This ethical brand has taken creativity to a whole new level. Now when you’re sipping that Coca Cola, you may be wearing the remnants.

Teich Design, maker of this fab Black Envelope Clutch ($180), use modern aesthetics and simple color palettes so that people think twice about loading up on trendy pieces. The eco-conscious brand preaches quality over quantity. Plus, all their accessories are vegetable-tanned and chrome free. The designer, Allison Teich, grew up in a factory working family and appreciates American labor. Thus, all her bags are made in New York City, in support of local artisans and workers.
