My name is Donna Oakes, I live in Chatham, New York and I have been a vegan since 1989. The world of sustainable fashion/vegan fashion has evolved drastically during those years. If you are new to this, take my word - back then, if you wanted dressy non-leather shoes, Payless was your only option. Shortly after I opened my shop in 2007, Cri de Coeur and olsen Haus burst onto the scene - could there be any doubt at this point that vegan footwear was not only compassionate but stunning and eco too? The philosophy of my shop is based around human-rights, animal-rights and earth-rights. We wish to tread lightly on the planet and hopefully encourage others to do the same. By bringing you responsibly produced earth-friendly products - vegan products - created by some of the best designers in their field, we provide real value and alternative products that you can feel great about using. Supporting ethical and independent companies is important to us. We feature vegan and eco friendly handbags, shoes, accessories and clothing from the following companies: Matt & Nat, English Retreads, NOVACAS, [wired] jewelry, Truth Belts, Cri de Coeur, olsenHaus, Beyond Skin, Dialog Handbags, GG2G, Georgette of Belgium, GUNAS, Sarah Donegan Handbags, Prairie Underground, Lavuk, Toggery Collection, WE3, Elroy Apparel, a.d.o. clothing, POPOMOMO, Feral Childe, She-Bible, Hovey Lee, naturevsfuture, DeNada Design and others. | |  |
