The Look for Less: Sperry Top-Sider 'Southport' Wedge

The Sperry Top-Sider "Southport" peep-toe wedge is $49.97 (down from $89.95) at Endless.com. It's a fun summer take on the classic boat shoe.


Get the look for less at Payless with their Dexter "Megan" canvas slingback wedge, available in red or blue for $16.99 (down from $24.99). The contrasting gingham lining makes these my favorite of the two.

Lunch Hour Shopping: Celebrate Earth Day with Gilt Groupe




Gilt Groupe goes green this Earth Day, April 22nd with sales from eco-friendly designers, Loomstate, Edun, Stella McCartney for LeSportsac and Stewart + Brown. Proceeds from Earth Day sales go to the Audubon Society and to Conservation International.

My top pick: Make-a-statement burlap bags by Lauren Bush's charitable company FEED Projects are environmentally friendly and artisan-made—and help to feed hungry children in need around the world. I've seen these all over the place but this is one instance of an accessory that you want everybody to carry!
