5 Things I'm Loving Right Now

A beautifully designed, informative, and necessary website to have on your radar. Everything related to animal cruelty-free cosmetics and beauty products from ingredients all the way to parent companies and international testing regulations can be found here. @crueltyfreekitty has done all of the research and answered all of the questions you could think of after the founder, Suzana Rose, realized “the lack of a reliable, all-in-one resource for cruelty-free beauty. Today, we help over 3 million people each year shop more ethically and find the best cruelty-free, vegan, or eco-friendly products.”

Head over and see where your favorite brands rank on the list. This site is the real deal.

No. 2 - Summer Shoes by Natives

The new collection by Natives, an already completely animal-free footwear company, has bettered themselves with their new collection, RISE BY BLOOM, that is so fascinating to me that I had to tell you all about it. More information is available on their site but they are “the first and only to introduce an entire shoe from upper to outsole, engineered with Bloom’s innovative algae-blended material”. ALGAE shoes… so cool. Added bonus, it comes in men’s, women’s, and kid’s sizes.

No. 3 - Loungewear by MATE the Label

MATE the Label is nailing it for me right now. All of their pieces are the most comfortable, but still flattering, loungewear I’ve yet to buy. You can choose from a beautiful palette of earthy tones and all of their materials are the highest quality of organic plant-based materials on the market.

No. 4 - Dauntless Bag

Dauntless is a brand to keep in your online shopping bookmark tab. Their company motto says it all, “It’s important for us not to use leather. We don’t like hurting animals and care about the welfare of the planet. We continuously try to improve the standards for all our materials.

Makes spending money on this insanely cool bag that much easier.
