Almost every girl loves shopping.  And with the World Wide Web making its way onto phones and every technological device possible, internet shopping has never been so fun.

 

 

While not all eco-friendly steps are easy -- driving less, buying all local food, or greening your home -- shopping for some eco-friendly products can be.  What some people forget is that not all green products have to have an organic or all natural seal.  Some green products can be, well, old.

 

Vintage and homemade websites are a great way for anyone to start their green transformation.  The fabulous vintage website of the week: Etsy.com.  Etsy is a great website for vintage and homemade finds.  It has items from household products, to clothing, to makeup, to wedding accessories.  Retailers who specialize in handmade goods can sell their items on Etsy's website, and Etsy has some adorable vintage clothing and odd knickknacks.  The best part -- nothing is overpriced.  And you thought green living was for the wealthy.  With cute plaid shirts at a steal and shipping super low, green living doesn't have to be difficult.

 

I can't wait to order the $18 vintage red plaid shirt, and I can't wait to try the vegan makeup products from The All Natural Face.  After looking through the makeup section for a bit too long, I found that The All Natural Face will offer up to 7 samples of their foundation for just 20 cents.  Yes, 20 cents.  Of course that includes shipping and handling, but for anyone who has tried to find inexpensive vegan makeup, you know how nice that sounds.  

 

So, ladies, browse through the site, pick up a few nearly free samples, and learn the art of green shopping.
