Shoes are the most difficult fashion habit to break. You can't get much more environmentally irresponsible than filling your closet with shoes you wear once every solar eclipse, if that. Add the fact that most of those shoes are made from animal skin and wow, how do we get to sleep at night?

Melissa is your Melatonin. The newest addition to Eco-Tobi, this sustainable Brazilian footwear company makes hip shoes that are durable, on trend and very reasonably priced. You'll want lots of Melissa, and that's okay because Melissa is socially responsible—exceeding Fair Trade benchmarks—and they happen to be one of the most environmentally responsible companies in the world. Melissa uses recycled materials to make their plastic shoes, and they also recycle 99.9% of the waste and water used in the production process.

For Spring 2008, Melissa has every color you could want. Talk about a candy store!
