I’m heading to Go Green Expo, but before I do, here’s this week’s small, edited collection of body and planet-friendly fashion and fashion-related faves.

Melissa Ferriera and her Vancouver-based clothing line, adhesif, make one-of-a-kind creative clothing from recycled materials.  The shorts (pictured above) are fashioned after “knickerbockers” and paperboy style shorts.  The bottoms are made from recycled t-shirts and the high waist is made from soft corduroy. The “cat eye” button detailing down the front of the waist is vintage shell and bone – and the whole eco ensemble is meant for fun. The hemline and waist are elasticized for easy on and off. $118 @ adhesif’s on-line shop

Love these!  Rings ($54) for guys and earrings ($48) for girls — all made from recycled skateboards.

This GoLite Wheeled Carry-On is created from 50% recycled nylon!  GoLite just received Backpacker’s Editor’s Choice Green Award for its use of Tier 1 recycled fabrics, (100% for their new backpack).  With Tier 1 recycled polyester and nylon materials, “massive reductions in energy use and resource consumption required to produce them vs. the virgin, petroleum-based alternatives.”  (Read more about it on their Website in the ‘Performance Technology’ within ‘The Meaning of Lite’ section.)  This lightweight, reversible dress contains a UPF of 5o — we just wish that it were made of Tier 1.

For men and women, and at $39, all proceeds are donated to Green Cross International, an environmental non-government organization, (NGO), founded by President Mikhail Gorbachev and partner or YOOXYGEN.
