Natural Luxe featured in the Charlotte Observer
Hemp isn’t just for hippies anymore – so says the staff of the Style section at the Charlotte Observer.
One look at the Engage Green city bag and you will agree too! This fashionable handbag blends recycled cork, organic cotton and hemp to create a beautiful tote.
Eco-chic designers are becoming aware of the versatility that hemp offers in creating today’s sustainable fashions. We agree and hope that we continue to see the use of hemp in everyday items increase too!

Earth Month 2010
Natural Luxe has partnered with Aveda to try and change this statistic. During the month of April, Aveda stores across the country will host special events to raise money for Global Greengrants and The Land Conservancy. All money raised will be used to protect our clean drinking water and promote water conservation.
At our local Aveda Lifestyle store, we have set up a display of eco-chic handbags, one of which will go home with a lucky raffle winner. It’s little steps that lead to bigger ones, we are priviledged to lend a hand in Aveda’s fundraising efforts. If you are in the Charlotte area please visit their store in the SouthPark Mall and spend a few dollars to support Earth Month 2010

Come sail away
It’s cold, dreary and rainy here in Charlotte today but that doesn’t stop me from dreaming of my next trip to the beach. It helps to carry around a recycled sailcloth tote bag that puts me in the mood for sea, sun and fun.
When Ella Vickers completed her job as first mate on a classic Americas Cup winner, she wanted to keep the memory alive, so she took the discarded sailcloth and created a set of bags. Soon she had folks buying them off her arms everytime she took one out. From that moment Ella Vickers Recycled Sailcloth Collection was born!
All items are handcrafted in the USA using yachts sails from around the world, saving 20 thousand yards of sailcloth from the landfill each year. They make the perfect beach tote or a great bag for a rainy today because of course they are waterproof.
Real Simple Magazine recently featured the recycled sailcloth open tote bag as one of their “Seaworthy beach bags”
Pick one up today and get ready for beach season!

Natural Luxe review & giveaway on Natural Mommie
We are so excited to partner with Natural Mommie - the site that is turning mommies from eco-weak to eco-chic one fabulous find at a time, to offer a great mama bag giveaway!
Here’s a little info on Natural Mommie – This blog is to prove to the world {or at least the mama bloggin’ world!} that natural family living or being a little bit crunchy or organic doesn’t mean you have to toss out your makeup bag and heels. It’s not about who can go the longest without shaving their legs or feeling embarrassed because you still use Mr. Clean once in a while even though you’ve vowed to make a change and only use baking soda and vinegar from floor to ceiling.
It’s not about being 100% perfect and 100% natural. You can keep your hip mama self and still work towards a better planet, a healthier home and family. – Love it!!
