Our dependence on the ugly little oil-based baggies is so unhealthy for the environment, some cities like Austin, Texas have instated an all-out ban on plastic bags being handed out by retailers. Besides, reusable bags are more chic. Here are a few of our favorites we found on Etsy to get the eco swing in your step. http://www.sheknows.com/living/articles/982777/etsy-roundup-cute-reusable-shopping-bags Christina Caldwell Fri, 01 Feb 2013 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.sheknows.com/living/articles/982775/energy-efficient-lighting-thats-actually-chic Let’s face it.

But is it possible for those same lights to be chic, too? Whether you’re looking to revamp your house or green up your life, these energy-efficient lights offer the best of both worlds. http://www.sheknows.com/living/articles/982775/energy-efficient-lighting-thats-actually-chic Christina Caldwell Fri, 01 Feb 2013 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.sheknows.com/living/articles/982773/eco-friendly-ideas-for-your-wedding Whenever you throw a party, it’s hard not to notice the aftermath’s waste.
