Not that they should have to "market," of course, but if the American Heart Association is going to pick one month out of the year to focus on heart health, they sure did the right thing with picking February -- we've got nothing but hearts, uh, on our brains. Not only are we pounded from left, right and center with heart-shaped things, but everything is pink and red. It's quite perfect actually, because today is National Wear Red Day, in support of Go Red for Women, the American Heart Association's effort to wipe out heart disease in women.Filed under: Accessories, Style in the News, Shoes, Celebrities with Style, Style for a Cause

While we're talking about red carpet style here at Styledash, let's talk about what these celebrities do with the outfits once they've sashayed around the event for a few hours. They could potentially wear it again, but we know how much of a faux pas that would be (for a celeb, that is. I've worn the same cocktail dress three weekends in a row to different parties!).

Talk about high-tech clothing! Yesterday we saw the Hug Shirt, a shirt that lets you wirelessly transmit a virtual hug to someone on the receiving end using Bluetooth technology. While that's certainly cool, it seems a bit like frivolous use of technology. However, Irene seems to be a slightly more useful and conscientious use of technology.

We're all fairly familiar with the "hobo bag" -- the big, slouchy bag that often takes the shape of a deep crescent. However, if you think about what a hobo's bag really is, the image you should get is a vagabond carrying a long stick over his shoulder that dangles a small pillowcase tied onto the end.Filed under: Haute Home, Men, Kids and Babies, Style for a Cause

So, you're trying to tread a little more lightly on the land. You recycle all your plastic bottles and soda cans. You drive a hybrid car. You even power your cell phone with a solar cell. Good for you! But for the Holidays, you can't go back on all the good work you've done by gifting others with the same old stuff that tromps all over the environment. You can give green, and thankfully, giving green doesn't mean you have to fork over a wad of cash, and neither does it mean it has to be ugly hemp sandals. Styledash has seven ways (+1) for you to give the gift of green this season.Continue reading Seven Days of Style: Give the Gift of Green

It would be fabulous if we could convince the world to wear plain, organic cotton, carry bags made of recycled materials, and ride a bike or walk every day, wouldn't it? But in this highly consumption-oriented world, social responsibility is just not possible.
