The (Cruelty-free) Golden Globes Look for Less
The Golden Globe Awards may be the pinnacle of glitz, glamor, and trend setting styles - but they are rarely a hotbed for vegan or ethical fashion moments. That would be before you had GirlieGirl Army Angels scouting the scene for you.
Angelina’s Jimmy Choo’s may not be in your budget or in your vernacular of acceptable fabrics. Rock the animal skin free look-a-likes by Nina (lower right) for $60 at Onestopplus.com.
Love the look of Kate’s sparklers, but can’t deal with constant thought of blood on your ears? Ethical diamonds are a-plenty, but they are not cheap. In the meantime, rock these cute cubic zirconia copies for $40.

Eva Longoria-Parker looked divine in this Reem Acra gown which would cost you more than a years rent and isn’t silk-free (for the vegan gals.)

Cowboy boots. If you can find a completely ethical pair of cowboy boots (sweatshop free, vegan) and CUTE I cannot tell you how impressed I will be. I have yet to find anything of the kind. THANKS
(01.14.2009 10:25 pm)This is SO great that you do this Chloe! Really cool that you’ll find vegan “matches” for clothes too!!!
Thank you for this!
(01.15.2009 12:35 am)I love everything you posted, but sadly the Nina shoes are not cruelty free. Nina uses leather for the outsoles. See here - http://www.shoebuy.com/nina-fiore/217548/473072
I remember buying a pair of Nina shoes ten years ago for my senior prom and then returning them when I got home and saw, “leather.” Boo.
(01.15.2009 7:21 am)Alyson: Onestopplus’s representative Melissa Veniero from 5WPR said; “The shoes are man made materials.” I just emailed her again to double check. Will keep ya’ll udpated!
(01.15.2009 9:08 am)Thanks Chloe! I’ll be super excited if the soles aren’t leather! Might even make up for my crappy senior prom…
(01.15.2009 9:30 am)I also just want to give propers to the oh-so-stunning Emily Deschanel, who not only at the GGs, but at the Fox All Stars Party, was be-decked in both “eco” & vegan wear! Her dress was vintage, her satin pumps were vegan - and her only accessory was the Conflict-free Diamond & Recycled Gold “Tine” ring from Green with Glamour! and she ROCKED IT!
(01.15.2009 7:09 pm)how about lovely vegan shoes in larger sizes? i’m a tall girl and i wear a u.s. size 12 shoe, and it’s pretty impossible to find cute vegan shoes for me!
oh, also? vegan peacoat? i seem to think a vegan non-wool peacoat is as mythical as a unicorn, i.e. it doesn’t exist!
(01.21.2009 2:43 pm)Working on the shoes for you, Jennifer. But Vegan Peacoats *are* around. See my list here: http://girliegirlarmy.com/blog/20081110/vegan-coat-round-up/. Here is a classic black peacoat: http://www.veganstore.com/non-wool-peacoat,-unisex-black/Page_1/346-BLK.html. Hopefully Leanne at Vaute Couture has one up her design sleeve for when she launches her collection next winter.. :)
(01.21.2009 2:51 pm)I love the shoes of Angelina and the dress of Eva Longoria!
(02.13.2009 10:17 am)Calling all ethical shoppers!
I represent the BUAV in London, an animal protection organisation and am so thrilled to see that you are promoting cruelty free products in your blog! Animal testing is of increasing public concern and, thankfully, more and more people are realising this.
I should point out, however, that labelling claims with regards to animal testing vary widely and can be ambiguous. Generic claims such as ‘not tested on animals’ or ‘we do not test on animals’ can simply mean that the final product has not been tested this way and/or the company does not conduct or directly commission any animal tests themselves. The product may well still contain ingredients which have been recently tested on animals by suppliers.
The best way to tell how genuine a company’s claim is – and how robust their supplier monitoring system – is for them to sign up to the Humane Cosmetics Standard (HCS) to be approved as a cruelty free company. The HCS, symbolised by the Leaping Bunny logo, is the only internationally recognised scheme for cosmetics and toiletries that are genuinely not tested on animals. In addition to not carrying out animal testing themselves, approved companies commit to not buying any ingredients which have been animal tested anywhere in their supply chain after a fixed cut-off date. Companies back up their policies with signed assurances from suppliers and regular independent audits. This sends out a strong message to suppliers and consumers alike. A full list of companies approved internationally can be found at http://www.gocrueltyfree.org.
