Create a bridal pinboard inspired by one of 5 designer wedding gowns for a chance to win a $2,500 Gilt shopping spree, plus $2,500 towards a honeymoon on Jetsetter. Sis, I hope you're reading this!

Find Eco-Friendly Beauty at Vine.com (with $10 Off)




There's a new one-stop shop for all-things green* called Vine.com (nope, it's not a wine shop as I first suspected based on the name).

Vine.com features everything from paraben-free skincare and gluten-free snacks to reclaimed wood furnishings and solar-powered electronics. They've got lots of brands I recognize like Burt's Bees and Seventh Generation, as well as many new ones I'm looking forward to trying.

Right now shoppers on Vine.com will get $10 off their order and free shipping with an exclusive code when they spend $49 or more. Get it at www.vine.com/healthychild2012. Plus, Vine.com will give $10 to Healthy Child Healthy World, an organization which aims to empower parents to protect children from toxic chemicals through simple changes. I can get behind that.
