Angela & Roi

If you're thinking about buying a new bag, I've got a GREAT idea for you- buy one from a company that promotes more than just a style. Angela & Roi, a handbag company started by couple Angela & Roi Lee, makes handbags that are not only minimalistic and chic, but also made with vegan leather! The bags are beautiful, but if you need more convincing, Angela & Roi donates a portion of each sale to a healthcare organization through their Donate by Color campaign. They make large totes, shoulder bags, and cross body bags all with vegan leather-all minimalistically gorgeous. My personal favorite: the mini black cross-body. Check out their website to learn more about the causes they donate to, as well as see the beautiful bags they make! angelaroi1

The mini cross body comes in 5 different colors!

Eco Friendly Shoes

The process of manufacturing clothes and shoes can be very harmful to our environment. Building emissions is the number one player in pollution, not to mention the dyes used to create apparel. I am a big believer that sustainability should be part every company's business practice and the fashion industry is no exception.
