This week’s edit features five handpicked pieces of gear that are perfect for working out…or doing whatever the heck you feel like at the moment. Not only do each of these items stand on their own, but you could also mix and match every one of these garments and accessories together, creating several beautiful outfits.

1. Sleek Silver Jacket

Talk about a gorgeous, wear anywhere (and everywhere) piece! This amazing jacket is on trend with its iridescent silver exterior, offers a super flattering peplum silhouette, and can easily be dressed up or down. Featuring a removable hood and meta lux zipper, you could even get away with this at work on casual Friday. Transition seamlessly from studio to street, and pair this beauty with all your favorite staples. Loving this look with white monochrome ensemble, but feel free to mix things up with pop of color, or even your favorite jeans. Priced at $116.

2. X-Factor Sports Bra

Yes, yes, yes, a sports bra totally made our list, especially since it’s a practical (and usually way more comfortable) swap for your regular bra. This one features delicate straps and details, but stays put with a nicely sized band around the chest. Pair it with leggings or yoga pants and your favorite loose-fitting tanks or crops for working out. For wear outside the gym, pair the strappy sports bra with anything where you won’t mind straps showing, or when you’re in need of extra coverage. Sheer or lace tops, open back sweaters, or a flowing kimono would all working nicely. Priced at $44.

3. Quick Change Tank

At first glance, this tank doesn’t even look like your typical gym gear, and that’s because it’s suited for both working out and weekend romps. The trapeze shape and shark bite silhouette give off a casual, relaxed vibe that’s great for wearing with leggings, jeans, and shorts. However, tie the flowing side pieces together behind your back or around your midsection, and you’ll have a top you can down dog in without having a shirt dangling in your face. Whenever the mood strikes, change the look of this top quickly and easily. Priced at $29.

4. Zen Garden Yoga Pants

From Yoga Democracy, makers of vibrant, lively, and patterned leggings that are also super sustainable (like, fabric derived from post-consumer plastic sustainable), you’ll appreciate the whimsy of the brand’s pants if you’re into quirky patterns, florals, and wanderlust themes. This particular pair features a flowing, Asian-inspired print that wraps from waist to ankle. But there’s no need to worry about the dyeing process used to create all those eye-popping colors, because it’s completely non-toxic and eco-friendly. Pair them with a cute cropped hoodie and sneakers for a studio to street look. Priced at $75.

5. On Your Feet Shoes

There are some athletic brands that you come to know and trust, and vegan-friendly Vivobarefoot is def one of them. These shoes came across my desk and, girl, am I glad they did! The Primus Lite is the brand’s version of the “lightest movement shoe possible” and follows the “natural shape of the foot with the least possible interference of natural movement.” Second to brand name is what really caught my eye, and that’s the minimalist aesthetic. The silhouette and style are popular, for sure, and they’ll look great with all of your go-to casual looks. A quick “white sneaker outfits” search on Google will offer loads of inspiration and ideas on how to style these in a way that’s both trendy and practical. Priced at $135.

The post 5 Athleisure Looks Perfect for Working Out (or Not): Friday Finds appeared first on EcoSalon.

Show your love for the wild, wild west with a retro, bohemian, layered, modern-day cowgirl take on Southwestern fashion. While it might be tempting to go country from head to toe, we suggest striking a balance by incorporating two to three pieces at a time. Whether it’s a pair of boots and an ornate belt buckle, or a Navajo print skirt, a fringe purse, and your favorite turquoise jewelry, there are so many ways to pull of this beautiful trend.

1. Effortless Western Buttondown

Capturing the essence of Southwestern style doesn’t have to be complicated or flashy. Something as simple as a well-worn western shirt will add a rustic feel to your current wardrobe without screaming “ranch hand.” Wear this top in a way similar to the model, Canadian tux style, with monochrome accessories to match the black on black look, or tuck it into a maxi skirt, tie up the front tails with a pair of jeans, or wear it unbuttoned with a bralette and shorts in the spring and summer. Priced at $79.50.

2. Turquoise Cocktail Ring

A Southwestern style staple, turquoise jewelry has been a hallmark of the Navajo tribe for centuries. Now you can own and wear a piece of your own turquoise jewelry with this modern twist on an historic craft. At one inch long, this natural, handmade stone ring is a statement-making cocktail piece that will definitely get the conversation flowing. Another plus is that turquoise jewelry looks great with a variety of neutrals and other colors, so you’ll never run out of reasons to wear this ring. Priced at $105.49.

3. Vintage 1970s Pocho

A true vintage piece, the bold poncho seen here is straight out of the 70s. Perfect for rounding out the chilly nights as winter comes to a close, and then pulling it out again next fall, this crocheted piece can be worn year after year. Great for festivals, roasting marshmallows around the bonfire, or just upping your bohemian layering game, this poncho will add instant style to even the most basic pair of jeans. Accessorize with a felt gambler hat and a pair of western ankle boots. Priced at $42.

4. Faux Suede Fringe Skirt

Such a fun, sexy take on fringe, we think you’ll adore this faux suede, Southwestern-inspired midi skirt. Although the first layer stops just above the knee, the double-layered fringe tiers give the illusion of a longer skirt that’ll showcase your legs as they peek out from behind the tasseled curtains. This would look very chic with a tucked-in fitted tank, a pair of western ankle booties, and lots and lots of layered jewelry. Priced at $85.

5. Vegan Ostrich Boots

Show your commitment to Southwestern style with this seriously gorgeous pair of vegan ostrich boots. Kate Mendenhall western boots are all custom made and hand-sewn in Texas, and contain zero animal products. In addition to being ethical and sustainable, this pair is also breathable, durable, and water-proof. Perfect for year-round wear, these will look great paired with shorts, leggings, jeans, prairie dresses, maxi skirts, and so much more. The color is gorgeous, so take advantage by showcasing them with a contrasting black or white pant. Priced at $485.

4. Amore Amethyst Necklace

Valentine’s Day is a commercial holiday intent on selling you a cookie cutter pendant from a big box jewelry store. However, we say screw that idea and get yourself, or that special someone, something that’s truly unique. With no two alike, you’ll love the uniqueness that natural stones offer. This raw amethyst necklace has a perfect mix of ultra violet, white, gray, and gold to go with your favorite outfits for V-day and beyond.

5. Prima Ballerina Skirt

Steal the spotlight wherever you go in this ethereal tulle skirt that’s ideal for dressing up or down. Reminiscent of the graceful ballerinas perfecting their pirouettes, you’ll feel like a sugar plum fairy while wearing this graceful white midi. Whether you decide to pair it with a silky top, as pictured, or prefer to put your own spin on it by sporting a graphic tee or leather crop jacket, rest assured, there are plenty of ways to style this versatile piece for Valentine’s Day. Go all in with ankle tie heels, a fitted long sleeve top, a statement necklace, and a low messy bun. Priced at $67.

We’re continuing the fun in the second part of our two part series on dressing for your zodiac sign. This week we’re covering the remaining six sun signs by analyzing how their personality traits might dictate their fashion choices. Does this sound like you or those closest to you? Let us know if we hit the mark on social media!

1. Libra: The Scales (September 23-October 22)

Balanced and beautiful, Libras are as charming and enthralling as the clothes they wear. Usually elegant, polished, thoughtful, and well-rounded, your wardrobe consists of the styles that flatter you, whether classic or trendy, and symmetry is totally your thing. Being ruled by Venus, the planet of beauty, love, and luxury, it’s not unusual for you to be the epitome of put-togetherness, though it’s often in a favorite piece you’re seen wearing again and again. Try this trendy, yet classic, day to night jumpsuit–it’s a fresh swap for your favorite little black dress. Priced at $139.

2. Scorpio: The Scorpion (October 23-November 21)

Scorpios are known for their mysteriousness and seductiveness. Already magnetic to begin with, reserved Scorpios don’t need much help drawing attention to themselves, since it’s usually their mystique, not their attire, that attracts others to them. It’s believed that Scorpios often gravitate toward classic, potentially pricey, designer basics and don’t usually get their fill of risk-taking through fashion. With a dramatic dark wash, reputable label, flattering high-rise, and an on-trend skinny fit, you’ll quickly make these jeans your new wardrobe staple. Priced at $79.97.

3. Sagittarius: The Archer (November 22-December 21)

Lively, cheerful, and sometimes extravagant, Sagittarian women are always down for a shopping extravaganza, er trip. And while you’re there, they’ll tell you the truth, and nothing but the truth, about whether or not those jeans make your ass look big. Known for their worldly and nomadic nature, you’ll probably find this zodiac sign packing a bag for their next excursion, perhaps inspiring you to tag along. Relaxed elegance with quirky accents is great for the traveling Sagittarian, which is why we recommend this adorable and striking kimono mini backpack that’s perfect for toting your passport, cash, and lip gloss on a sightseeing adventure. Priced at $48.

4. Capricorn: The Goat (December 22-January 19)

Capricorns are probably the most practical sign in the zodiac, so they gravitate toward comfortable pieces, but almost always with a side of effortless sophistication. Check any Capricorn’s closet and you’ll probably find an array of structured blazers and amazingly well-tailored trousers, jeans, dresses, and blouses in silk, leather, cashmere, and other top-notch materials. Set in their ways, from hair to makeup to clothes, Capricorns know what styles work for them and stick to it. This two-piece set is elegant with a twist, plus Capricorns will love being able to style this multiple ways, appealing to their practicality. Priced at $128.

5. Aquarius: The Water Bearer (January 20 to February 18)

People born under the Aquarius zodiac sign are believed to be highly experimental, exuding an innovate and oftentimes avant-garde energy. Always into the cutting edge of things, especially when it comes to technology, you may be sporting clothes that serve double-duty for ease of use with the latest smartphone. Your unpretentious, informal nature, combined with your unique edge, means you’ll probably never show up to the party in the same outfit as another. Oh, and the party? That’s code word for peaceful protest against one of the many causes you care about. Crazy cat lady and animal lover approved, you’ll love wearing this cozy kitty sweater dress. Priced at $54.99.

6. Pisces: The Fish (February 19 to March 20)

The dreamers of the zodiac, Pisces are sensitive, gentle, romantic, and creative. Many will have an affinity for the arts or be artistic. And although they may be hard to nail down, as they do enjoy their personal time away from the world, you can bet that when you do find them, their style will reflect their sensitive attitude. We think flowing styles, perhaps incorporating shades of blue, like the color of your “home,” and soft exteriors might work best for most Pisces. Try this beautiful kimono maxi with a pair of stacked platform heels and a barrette in your hair. Priced at $149.95.

The post 5 + 1 Ways to Dress for Your Zodiac Sign (Part 2 of 2): Friday Finds appeared first on EcoSalon.

What better way to celebrate the New Year than by having a little fun with our zodiac signs. We set out to discover how each one might dress based on astrological personality traits. In an effort to bring you a lighthearted look at your fashion-based future, we hope you enjoy our analysis of each zodiac sign. Whether it’s spot on, or a little off the mark, be sure to let us know how it panned out by sharing your thoughts with us on social media. Keep an eye out for part two next week!

1. Aries: The Ram (March 21-April 19)

Naturally confident, this fire sign is believed to be ruled by the headstrong and determined ram. High energy, boldness, devotion, a caring demeanor, and heroic tendencies are all positive attributes associated with an Aries. Therefore, we suggest gravitating toward bright, vibrant colors to match your unstoppable personality, including experimenting with the latest trends. Highlight your head and face, the body part ruled by your sign, in this bodycon set in hot lava. Priced at $78.

2. Taurus: The Bull (April 20-May 20)

This earth sign is ruled by the planet Venus and therefore enjoys beauty and fine, well-made goods. A stable, grounded person, Taurus is described as being patient, romantic, careful, and organized. Although known to enjoy luxurious things, they don’t like to waste money, so it’s important to marry the two ideals when shopping. Try this elegant, silk, wear-with-everything Rebecca Taylor top with a discounted (to the tune of 63 percent) price tag. Priced at $83.99.

3. Gemini: The Twins (May 21-June 20)

Although Geminis may find it hard to nail down their personal style, it’s totally cool, because they don’t like playing by the rules or being told what to do anyway. Said by AstroStyle to be “the most versatile and vibrant of all the zodiac signs,” Gemini energy is believed to help us “communicate, collaborate and fly our freak flags at full mast.” Geminis could easily be pioneers in the fashion industry, so pick something, like this eyes-on-me yellow maxi, that stands out as much as you do! Priced at $299.

4. Cancer: The Crab (June 21-July 22)

Cancer is possibly the most nurturing and sensitive of all the zodiac signs. Hard on the outside, but soft on the inside, this little crab likes cozy comforts and putting down roots. Instead of taking fashion risks, Cancers are more likely to gravitate to the tried and true neutrals that makeup the backbone of any good wardrobe, but not without a feminine twist. Consider this neutral, yet soft, ruffled chino jacket to pair with all your favorite jeans and tees. Priced at $98.

5. Leo: The Lion (July 23-August 22)

Often the bold leaders that we find ourselves looking up to, Leos have a flair for the dramatic and somehow always look spectacular. Their love of all things luxurious means they’ll usually be clad in the finest threads. Brutally honest, they’re the person you should turn to when getting dressed, they’ll never let you leave the house looking bad. Try this bold, sexy, sparkly, and revealing little black dress with your favorite heels and a killer smoky eye. Priced at $88.

6. Virgo: The Virgin (August 23-September 22)

Perfectionists by nature, every time you see a Virgo, there usually isn’t a single hair out of place. Pristine from head-to-toe, this sign, associated with health, helpfulness, order, organization, innocence, and purity, probably has their closet in order by color and style. With an affinity for wellness, coupled with their incredibly high standards, they usually look flawless and can spot a knock-off in an instant. Snap up these beautiful floral boho pants and pair them with your favorite blouse for a flawless day-to-night look. Priced at $42.

This particular pair is perfect for enhancing mental acuity, absorbing negative energy, and harmonizing mind, body, and emotions. However, there are a variety of stones available to fit your needs. Priced at $48.

4. Upgraded Eco Mat

Whether you prefer to count daiquiris in your dreams, or like to take a direct approach to being left the hell alone while you nap, the most important thing is that you’re getting more sleep. Priced at $39.

The post 5 Picks Under $50 (Because the Holidays Were Expensive): Friday Finds appeared first on EcoSalon.

Brick, cherry, ruby, wine, scarlet, and merlot–regardless of your favorite, one thing’s for sure: red is the trending color of the season. A longtime favorite of designers, filmmakers, and individuals alike, red conjures feelings in us like no other color can. From lust to disgust, and everything in between, it’s symbolic for sex and blood and love and religion and confidence and power and wealth. Often touted as a universally flattering color, we think there’s no better way to include everyone than in an edit featuring the magnificently magnetic hue.

1. Full Body Bordeaux

Get a jumpstart on your exercise and wellness plans for the New Year in this stunning bordeaux bodysuit. Not only is the color eye-catching, but the “next-to-skin fit” is also visually appealing. Perfect for those times when you’re feeling understatedly sexy, this piece is great for a little confidence boost at your next yoga or barre class, or when you’re just hanging around the house. Easy to layer, you can simply toss on a t-shirt or sweatshirt before heading out. Another option includes actually dressing it up for a night out. A jacket (try a blazer, cardigan, or dolman top), some jewelry, and a pair of heels are all you need to elevate this beautiful bodysuit. Priced at $98.   

2. True Red Tunic

Easy layering pieces are a girl’s best friend. Throw in a laid-back boho vibe, and you’ve got the perfect everyday top. Great for when you’re feeling effortless, you’ll want to toss on this true red tunic with a pair of jeans and boots and head out the door. An excellent length for pairing with tights and leggings, this is the ideal top to team with knee-high or over-the-knee boots this winter. Still feeling chilly? With the generous tail on this tunic, we think it will create great lines when paired with a sweater or jacket that falls at standard length. Easily dress this piece up or down with jewelry and accessories. Priced at $68.

3. Crimson Cutout Skirt

This classic straight skirt in crimson red would be a surprisingly versatile addition to any wardrobe. The epitome of day-to-night dressing, you’ll be able to wear this lace-like piece for a variety of occasions. Try flats and a blouse for work during the day, then slip on a pair of strappy heels and a silky camisole for evening. For casual weekend hanging, pair this skirt with a graphic tee and ankle boots. Easily warm it up for chilly weather with the addition of tights, a cozy sweater (monochromatic if you so wish), and a pair of booties. Priced at $128.

4. Earthy Umber Dress

The perfect sweater dress, personified, you’ll want to warm your body in this cozy, form-fitting knitwear all winter long. Featuring a red umber hue, this color is natural and understated and would look fantastic paired with other earth tones like caramel, coal, tawny, ebony, and clay. The attention to detail–oversized collar, open mesh shoulders, and pockets–ensure this dress is never boring to look at. Style it with knee-high boots and a pair of decorative socks with lace cuffs that peek out of the top. Not feeling that look? Then pair this dress with tights and ankle booties instead. Priced at $99.

5. Tattered Tomato Skinnies

Anytime you’re feeling like you need a lift, all you have to do is reach for these in-your-face tomato red skinny jeans. With major distressing around the knees coupled with bold color, these pants are definitely not for the faint of heart, but they are a great alternative to typical humdrum winter hues. Wear these with your favorite cold weather sweaters and boots, then pull them out again in the spring and summer. Want to make this look even trendier? Layer a pair of tights underneath. Fishnet, lace, and plain tights are all on-trend. Priced at $108.

The post 5 Trendy Picks That’ll Have You Seeing Red: Friday Finds appeared first on EcoSalon.

With the hustle and bustle of the holidays, sometimes we just need to take time out for a day of rest. And what better way to signify a little R&R than by also wearing clothes that help you unwind?

Cozy and comfy is where it’s at, so we’ve hand-picked five of our loungewear favorites to help you get in the mood. Whether you do a little binge-watching and cocoa drinking, or prefer your night to feature yummy takeout and a bottle of wine, our list will help you dress the part.

1. Plush Sherpa Robe

Perfect for hanging around the house, you, like all of the other rave reviewers, will want to live in this plush reversible lounge robe. Obviously awesome for wrapping yourself in luxurious comfort whenever the need arises (Who doesn’t love a big, cuddly hug?), but also superb for a jaunt to the corner store for those times you run out of your favorite whatevers. Besides, we could totally see this dressed up with a pair of cool skinnies and boots with the sherpa side out, especially since the robe outerwear look is still trending. Priced at $138.

2. Cozy Velour Joggers

Somewhere between casual day wear, loungewear, and pajamas fall these luscious velour joggers. Wear them around the house all day while snuggled up with your favorite book, or toss on a cute t-shirt, a warm cardi (could also go with a bomber jacket), and a pair of sneakers for a seasonal take on the athleisure look. No matter how you choose to wear these, just know that this deep, rich color coordinates perfectly with a glass of your favorite red. Priced at $102.

3. Wrapped In Luxury

Nothing says warmth and luxury quite like an authentic cashmere sweater. This particular style blends cashmere and silk and offers it up in a relaxed, slouchy fit that’s perfect for creating casual chic combos all season long. Great for at-home lounging with your favorite leggings or joggers, it will be your go-to piece for laid-back get togethers with friends and loved ones. Pair it with jeans and knee-high boots when hitting the town, and add a touch of holiday sparkle with your favorite jewelry. Priced at $168.

4. Second-Skin Pants

Although these are designed to be yoga pants, anyone who has put on a quality pair can attest to wanting to practically live in them 24/7. A departure from the usual jogger or skinny style, these bell-bottomy leggings will spice up your casual rotation a bit thanks to the wider opening. Perfect for lounging, a little at-home yoga for winding down, or pairing with a cozy sweater for a little on-the-town shopping or lunching, we’re certain that you’ll find plenty of reasons to wear these soft, second-skin pants. Priced at $89.

5. Cocoon-Shaped Cardigan

Perfect for dressing up or down and keeping on hand when you need an extra layer of warmth, you’ll find yourself wearing this piece at home, work, and on the weekends. Choose to style this cozy cardigan cocoon-shaped or in low-high form, where it’s longer in front than it is in the back. Great for lovers of relaxed clothing (could very well classify as boho) or for nursing mamas that want ease of access, there are many reasons for getting or gifting this soft and stylish cardigan for the holidays. Also comes in black and burgundy. Priced at $68.

The post 5 Glam Looks Perfect for Ringing in the New Year: Friday Finds appeared first on EcoSalon.

Winter fashion isn’t all crazy, overdone layering and barely there leather bondage-y stuff. There are plenty of trends that fall comfortably in between, and we’re here to cover them. From eye-popping, confidence-boosting color, to shimmering, holiday-ready metallics, we’ve got your winter fashion just the way you like it–a mix of warm and cozy easy-to-wear pieces with a chic, sophisticated streak.   

1. Shimmering Lights

In this case, all that glitters is gold…and silver, and bronze, and rose gold, and any sparkly look you fancy. Whether you prefer just a dash of glitz, or head-to-toe sequinage, it’s your prerogative to choose how much or how little. Fortunately, with this winter fashion trend, less is more, and more is fabulous when it comes to wearing metallics, making it quite easy to do. We’re loving the peek-a-boo metallic neckline featured on this sweater. Pair it with faux leather pants or a skirt, as shown, and voila!, perfect party outfit. Priced at $98.

2. Duvet-Inspired Outerwear

Duvet-inspired outerwear is trending hard, and the more oversized your coat, the better. A universally flattering trend, you can leave your house wearing an almost-actual-quilt and no one will be the wiser. The particular jacket we’ve chosen is lovely shade of khaki and features a faux fur neckline that flawlessly incorporates a second trend of the season. Not only that, but it has some seriously enviable hand-warming pockets. Pair this with rugged, distressed looks, like jeans and combat boots, or softer, boho looks featuring lots of pattern mixing and your favorite ankle booties. Priced at $119.

3. Seeing Ra-Ra-Red

Beyond what the world of fashion recommends, psychology also suggests that wearing red is good for your confidence, making this color trend a win-win this season. Seeing red in your closet and on your body is actually a good thing, although this particular study suggests some introverts may react differently. However, we say step out of your comfort zone, and reap the benefits of wearing red. This red jumpsuit is holiday party ready. Consider pairing it with a blazer for added warmth (bonus points if it’s velvet). Priced at $59.  

4. Feeling Folksy

The folk trend is back in a big way and is surprisingly easy to wear. The basic rule here, if you’re not a skilled pattern mixer or just don’t feel comfortable attempting, is to choose your statement piece featuring the look, usually a pattern or design reflecting the genre, and then pairing it with your everyday basics. For instance, this jacket is great for wearing with jeans, trousers, and even maxi skirts or dresses. To bring it into modern day, we’d suggest layering it over a longer, lace-trimmed camisole and pairing with tapered trousers and ankle booties. You can even wear this with a form-fitting mini dress and over-the-knee boots for an edgier, youthful take on incorporating the folk trend. Priced at $168.

5. Cozy and Comfy

Uber softness and all the feels that hot chocolate by the fire on a cold winter’s day conjure up are what this trend is all about. Extreme comfort is never something you’d hear us complain about, and we’re pretty sure you can’t mess up this wrapped-in-a-cloud fashion statement, but in case you weren’t aware, it’s time to gather your softest sweaters and cardis to live in all winter. Whether you’re lounging around the house, are experimenting with your casual chic look, or want to keep warm at your office desk (we dare you not to fall asleep), you’ll fall in love with this cardigan just as much as we have. Priced at $248.
