You may already know that Nicole Richie has made waves in the accessories world with her jewelry and shoe label, House of Harlow 1960 , but her new clothing line, Winter Kate , has also been making a name for itself ever since it debuted this past spring season! Featuring a collection of floaty blouses, structured jackets for layering, and of course, her signature boho-style dresses, Winter Kate is everything Nicole loves about her own style — earthy, comfortable, and easy-to-wear, yet perfectly put-together. Some of my favorite pieces from her Summer 2010 collection, available now, are her silky chiffon cardigans .

Could the Brosnans be any kinder? First, Pierce helped homeless animals by designing a spay-and-neuter license plate , and now Pierce and his wife, Keely, are leading a truly vigorous international effort to make sure that the worldwide ban on whaling—which is now in jeopardy—remains intact. The ban has been in effect since 1986, but the International Whaling Commission (IWC) is considering lifting it if the three countries (Japan, Iceland, and Norway) that are currently ignoring the ban will reduce the number of whales they kill each year.

title pic Let Your Style Take Flight With Feather Jewelry

Forget everything you’ve ever thought about feathers in regards to fashion — they’re not always best left to the birds or on tacky “Dancing with the Stars” costumes. When embraced with an open mind, feather jewelry just might be your hottest summer accessory, and I mean actual feathers, not textured gold or molded silver feather impressions! Feather jewelry is authentically boho-chic in that earthy, Pocahontas sort of style — or at least, the effortlessly gorgeous image of Pocahontas that Disney has ingrained in our minds — and has that down-to-earth vibe that looks feminine and pretty, yet slightly undone. Go laidback-luxe with a long strand necklace like this vintage piece from Shopbop , or opt for a more vintage-glamorous, boa-inspired look with a long chain bib necklace from Charlotte Russe

Share on Facebook | Viewing Options Embed Animals who are bred and killed for their fur in China live in misery from birth to death. Chinchillas, foxes, minks, raccoons—and, yes, even dogs and cats—are jammed into crowded wire cages, and the close confinement and filthy conditions quickly lead to mental illness. As documented in our undercover video, fur farmers kill animals by bashing their heads in or breaking their necks while they are still conscious.

The ancient Incan city of Machu Picchu is in danger of being eroded by constant tourist traffic , which has prompted PETA to make it the second destination for our plus-size virtual “tourist.” Hopefully, his message will help restore this awe-inspiring attraction, which is one of the ” New Seven Wonders of the World .”: Click here to see the Spanish version of the banner. Vegans are, on average, 10 to 20 pounds lighter than their meat- and dairy-consuming counterparts. By shrinking their waists, tourists would also reduce their monumental carbon footprints
