All these conversations about Plastic-Free July and the environment have me reminiscing on the day I had the opportunity to partner with Zipcar for Earth Day! For the daytime activation in Soho, I wanted to wear a look that was comfortable, chic and sustainable, of course!
This is what I wore! Starting from the top:
Ozeano sunglasses: Ozeano is a sunglasses company that produces all its products with only eco-friendly materials. In addition, every pair of sunglasses sold makes the removal of 12kg of plastic and marine litter from our oceans and waterways possible through their partners, the Seabin Project, by powering their revolutionary ocean cleaning Seabin devices. Lastly, they donate 10% of the sale price to their registered eyecare partner, The Fred Hollows Foundation, who are preventing and curing vision impairment in over 25 countries around the world.
