I’m so excited to revisit one of my favorite vegan handbag labels, Jeane & Jax! I highlighted them on A Harmless Project before showcasing their beautiful Spring collection but now it’s Fall so I’m here to check back in with them on their new collection. Their minimalist color palette, structured and stylish designs, and beautifully textured vegan leathers make these bags must-haves for Fall. First, let’s talk vegan. Jeane & Jax is a PETA approved handbag line from Montreal f

I recently posted about my experience at their fair trade fashion show with The Peace Exchange (details on that are on my blog here) and I’m so happy to team up with Bead & Reel for A Harmless Project. I absolutely adore this boutique because it’s so much more than a shop. Their fair trade fashion show is a great example of their diversity. They teamed up with The Peace Exchange, an organization that works in developing nations to create economic growth, sustainability, entre

I've had stomach issues for the last few years, that's actually what prompted my switch to veganism! Last weekend they flared up and I had a miserable few days before I decided a three day juice cleanse was in order. I found LA Juice on Yelp and once I saw their menu I immediately booked my cleanse. I've been doing cleanses for years so I'm no stranger to these sorts of detoxes. I grabbed one day of their "Detox 2" cleanse and then I mixed and matched juices from their menu t

This week on A Harmless Project I teamed up with Melie Bianco to bring you must have bags for Fall. My two picks were their Tabitha Mini Accordion Tote in Blush and their Skylar Tote in Brown. Two very different and very versatile on-trend bags that won’t hurt your bank account. Plus, Melie Bianco bags are vegan/cruelty-free and fair trade!

From incredibly chic Montreal, Devinto brings us an eco collection that's ethical and vegan-friendly. I can't tell you how excited I am to see a collection that's both completely gorgeous and sustainable! Devinto believes that you don't have to sacrifice ethics for style and I couldn't agree more. All their pieces have a distinct high-end sophistication that feels more Gucci than granola. I love that all their pieces are handcrafted and made to order to minimize waste and ove

I attended the Fair Trade Fashion Show put on by Bead & Reel and Peace Exchange and it was FABULOUS. It was my first time at the Arts District Co-Op; what a great location! Nestled among downtown warehouses, the Co-Op sits on a friendly and vibrant block just down from Urth Caffe (which has amazing vegan chocolate cake). Just outside the Co-Op was the Bohemia food truck so after a walk around talking to the Co-Op vendors, I stuffed my face with soyrizzo tacos and vegan sopes.

I'm so excited to work with this New York based label. Quality, compassion, ethics, and taste all come to mind when talking about this brand. Ted Rossi is the mastermind behind this brand/collection and his sophisticated New York style gives these bags and accessories major attitude and sophistication. I have their black python faux leather clutch handbag and cuff bracelet here and I adore them. The bag is sturdy and sleek and the bracelet is so versatile. I use the bag most
