7 Stylish, Eco-Friendly Labels That Do Good

Imagine if every time you bought a product you knew exactly where it came from, who made it, but even more importantly you'd know that it's making a positive difference in the world. We don't always have this luxury, but there are many labels that not only create trendsetting, eco-friendly accessories—they also give back in more ways than one.
These brands prove that you don't have to sacrifice style to be eco-friendly and environmentally responsible.
Here are my top 7 labels:

1. Lia Terni: This jewelry line respects the environment while architecture and art inspire their pieces. The label's signature metal accessories are organic and minimal.
"All of our pieces are handmade with passion," designer Lia Terni tells E! News. "The brand is founded on upholding the highest quality, beginning with the ethical sourcing of materials through finishing each piece by hand at my new Miami atelier."
Terni, who was born in Brazil to an Italian family, credits the refreshing look of the line to the exposure she experienced while living in many cities like Madrid, London, and Sao Paulo.

2. beyondBeanie: "We take pride in providing our clients with the highest quality of artisan-made products which empower the artisans who make them while also giving back to help children in need," the label says.
Items are made from 100% alpaca wool, which is not chemically processed. The fleece of the alpaca is entirely renewable. This beanie gives back five meals to children in need.

"Every purchase from Boutique Mexico will help impoverished women rise out of poverty and ensure a better future for them and their loved ones."
All of the brand's apparel and accessories are 100% artisan made and celebrate the native crafts of Mexico.
