Happy Earth Day! While we should be in eco-friendly mode all the time, today is the day to reflect on our buying habits and vow to make a responsible change. To prove that being nice to the Earth doesn't mean sacrificing good taste, we've hunted down 10 pieces that are made of organic cotton, recycled cotton, bamboo, reusable materials, or deoxidized silver. Rachel Roy created this Earth Day cardigan ($89) especially for this day. Here's more!
You have your hot holiday dress, the blingin' baubles, the fête-worthy hose. But what's underneath it all? I've got you covered . . . or rather, uncovered! The holidays require foxy lingerie: teddys, thongs, garters, sexy bras. This Victoria's Secret Boatneck Lace Tunic ($38) is great because it can be worn in and outside the bedroom. Click in for more hotness and be sure to check out what else you need now.
I've heard of matching nail polish to toes, lipstick to nails, even polish to jeans, but lipstick to panties? Umm, that's a new one. However, if you're planning something just that coordinated with your intimates, Hanky Panky's got something stashed away for you: two new sets with free Essie nail polish.
Just what every girl needs . . . more things to match. If this sounds like a dream you want to make reality, $36 nets you two thongs and one free bottle. But don't go showing off the results all over town now, you hear?
Earth Day is not over yet. . . . As you know, I have been following the green scene for some time and have opinions about who the best eco-friendly designers are. Of course, SF-loving Stella McCartney tops my list, as does the Loomstate for Target collection. Both deliver goods that are earth-friendly and super stylin'. Beau Soleil's Organic One-Shoulder Dress we're giving away is pretty hot, too. There are oodles of other eco-conscious brands that serve up stylish gear that are good to the environment. Check out my top 10.

All of the big names in American fashion submitted their sketches to WWD yesterday as they prepare their pitch to dress Michelle Obama on inauguration night. The big hitters, we think, were the designer's who understood Michelle's classic low-profile style.
Suzy Menkes writes on the rugged knits so popular in the Fall 08 menswear shows and makes the allusion to a declining economy and the need for comfort. She writes, "...no young banker wants to wear knitwear the color of a pink "you're laid off" slip".
Hanky Panky, the everyday undergarment chic women swear by, held a sample sale yesterday. Let's just say this is the first time Hanky Panky showed a panty line.
WWD picked up the "Anna Wintour will resign/be replaced" story and gets "unfounded" quotes at every turn. A wrap up of the rumors is pitted against the official word.
