VOGUE VERT


CONSCIOUS LUXURY...."Going green never looked so good."

   Last week I had the pleasure of meeting with Kathy Hamm, founder of the "green" online store  (so perfectly named) Vogue Vert. Within minutes of talking with Kathy, I had a strong sense of the passion she has for this great venture she has recently undertaken. She lights up when she talks about the direction she hopes for her eco-conscious online site to go...as well as when I compliment her insanely cool handbag. This handbag, I might add, was made completely out of reused scraps of leather which gave this large hobo piece a fringe look to die for... I have yet to get that bag out of my mind. Kathy's handbag gives a vivid idea of what her online store is all about: unique,striking, high-quality design  presented in handbags and accesories, all crafted through eco-conscious methods. And after speaking with Kathy, when it comes to ensuring that these pieces truly come from "green" materials and approaches, trust me- she does her research. The following is a deeper glimpse into Kathy's beliefs and inspriation that led her to create Vogue Vert:
