RachelSarnoff Guest Blogger
I'm a writer, producer and marketing consultant focusing on sustainable fashion, beauty, lifestyle and parenting. In June 2008, I launched EcoStiletto.com which explains, in real-girl terms, how eco-friendly choices can help turn your carbon footprint from a ginormous Ugg into an oh-so-slender Manolo. As Savings.com's new Green Guru and author of its "Living Well, Living Green" weekly blog feature, I know that there's no better savings than FREE! My website, www.EcoStiletto.com, delivers daily eco-Fashion, Beauty & Health, Living and EcoCelebrity updates a long with hundreds of dollars in giveaways each and every week. EcoStiletto is the smart and sexy secret to stiletto-sizing your carbon footprint.
