I’m going to keep this short and sweet – start taking the stairs ladies, because shorts are the new dress this summer and they are, well, short!

From the red carpets to the night clubs, shorts are heating up the scene as quickly as the rising temperatures outside.

Jessica Simpson rocked a pair of cut-offs with statement shoes and a refined blazer on a night out. Follow suit and get a pair of daisy dukes from Re Collection and a pair of jaw-dropping shoes from Calleen Cordero – where the Italian leather is vegetable dyed and the wooden bases are sourced from a sustainable forest.

Or, take your look up a notch and allow Stella McCartney to create a look that is both office and evening appropriate. Next time you are headed for a fun night out, give your little black dress a break and slip on a pair of shorts instead.

Happen to catch Ellen DeGeneres on one of her Earth Day shows wearing this LIV GRN organic cotton tee? How about actors like Jessica Alba, Jessica Simpson and Balthazar Getty strolling the streets of L.A. clad in their green messaging?

LIV GRN is the brainchild of music industry pro Larry Frazen (he managed No Doubt and Paula Abdul, amongst others), fashion PR and marketing specialist Sydney Holland (who put Isabella Fiore, Hugo Boss and the internationally acclaimed, Los Angeles-based store Kitson on the map), and TV host Maria Menounos, of “Access Hollywood,” “The Today Show” and host of “Hollywood Green” on Planet Green.

Menounos says at the LIV GRN site: “After working on Hollywood Green, I began to learn much more about the environment and the little changes all of us can make in our day-to-day lives that will make a difference. I started looking for organic clothing, not just for my show but for myself and found very few appealing options. When I met the folks at LIV GRN I immediately gravitated to their vision and passion for a hip and cool eco-line that is made of 100% organic material and that also makes donations to Global Green. I am thrilled to be a part of a great brand and a great cause.”

The line takes the literal message imprinted on every piece as a simple call to action. The LIV GRN ladybug logo, integral to every design, is a reminder of how fragile our ecosystem is and how much it needs our care.

LIV GRN also donates 10% of all profits to Global Green.

You can follow them on Facebook and Twitter, or hop over to their site for more details.
