I already have my Christmas list set. For anyone who wants to know (hint hint), it includes:
1. Membership to Vegan Honey's Holiday Dessert of the Month Club.
2. Isa Chandra Moskowitz's new cookbook Veganomicon.
3. And these purple boots!
If you haven't already sent off your list to Santa, here are two lovely suggestions:
1. The peta2 gift set. This pack offers the best peta2 merch we have to offer including: the new peta2 Nugget tee; a peta2.com black T-shirt; two new peta2 bumper stickers; and a set of mini-buttons.
2. The Stay Vocal peta2 tote. This organic cotton shopping bag features the amazing winning design by Rachel Caldwell, which you can see to your left. $3 from every bag gets donated to peta2, so get to shopping!
Comment below with what cruelty-free goodies are on your holiday wish list (yes—the iPhone counts as being cruelty-free).
Happy Holidays!

fur cruelty-free fashion leather wool
A while back I asked all you stylish ladies and gents to send us photos of you in your favorite cruelty-free outfits—you know, outfits free of fur, leather, and wool. I mean, why wear an animal when you can wear something cute that didn't cause an animal to suffer and die?
I don't know about you, but it makes me shudder to think about wearing someone else's skin/fur. If someone were to tell you, 'Here is a coat I made for you out of human back hair' you'd probably scream, run the other direction, and maybe even throw up in your mouth a little, right? But people who wear animal skins are wearing the skin and hair off an animal's back—an animal who doesn't speak human and can't tell us it hurts to be drowned, gassed, and anally electrocuted (though I think it's obvious to most of us that any of those things would hurt anyone, be it a human, a fox, or a raccoon).
And don't even get me started on leather—the fact that people wear cow skin that has to be chemically treated to keep from rotting is just plain nasty. Say it with me now: Chemically-treated cow skin is not fashionable.
Anyway, now that I've gone off on my tangent, I'll leave you lovelies to decide which outfit below is your favorite, so comment away!
Will it be Twigg's fur-free fashion sense?
Or Michael's casual and comfy cruelty-free clothing?
Or Donna's dazzling death-free dress (and yes, her shoes are pleather!)?
And vote wisely, cause the person who has the photo with the highest number of votes will win a $50 gift certificate from Alternative Outfitters!

Kate Hudson's New Cruelty Free Hair Care Prods July 20, 2007

Kate Hudson Dax Shephard cruelty-free
Last weekend Kate Hudson was spotted hiding behind the shirt of Mr. Dax Shepard as the duo left Malibu's Nobu restaurant hand in hand. Allegedly Shepard took the shirt right off his back and gave it to the lovely Ms. Hudson so she could shield herself from the paps. Good to know that chivalry isn't dead in Hollywood. Whether or not any of the rumors surrounding what they were doing together are true is of no concern to me (OK, actually I do care because I like them both and they're cute together) but what is of concern to me is her new cruelty free hair care line. Kate and her hair stylist David Babaii are creating a line of products called David Babaii for WildAid. "I've considered doing other campaigns in the past, but with this one, I jumped in without hesitation," she says. "I love that the products use natural ingredients and aren't tested on animals." Yay! The products are expected to hit shelves later this year and a portion of the proceeds are going to WildAid, an org working to stop the devastation of wildlife, so scoop 'em up when you see them, I know I will, especially if they make my hair look anything like Kate's.
