Vegetarian Star

Tis the season for returns.

The giving and receiving phase is over. Now it’s time to gather those gift receipts, switch and swap, and yes, even re-gift everything you got last month that you don’t like. Ideally, you got what you wanted. Wonder if Pamela Anderson did as well…

Last month she told Female First that all she wanted for Christmas was Stella McCartney. Now before you guys go drooling at the thought of what this might mean, we’ll set the record straight: she’s talking about cruelty-free fashion.

“You feel very alive wearing her clothes and knowing nothing has been killed,” she said.

Pamela once said she felt bad at the thought of starting the trend of wearing Ugg boots-which are made of sheepskin-that she eventually stopped wearing.

“I feel so guilty for that craze being started around my ‘Baywatch’ days – I used to wear them with my red swimsuit to keep warm – never realising that they were SKIN! I thought they were shaved kindly. People like to tell me all the time that I started that trend – yikes!”

Frank Iero isn’t the only vegan musician who can strut around in his vegan MacBeth shoes.

Missy Higgins did an interview with MVids where she wore hers too. If you don’t know about how Missy makes her tours carbon neutral, you should watch below. At least have a look at her shoes!

Very, very sad week for eco-friendly shoes lovers.

Proof that celebrities are not immune to the financial problems the world is enduring, Natalie Portman’s vegan shoes are no longer being produced. The parent company, Te Casan, closed shop, due to failing sales.

It’s not known whether Nat will take her shoes elsewhere for production for the line that was launched in February of this year. The shoes went for about $200 a pair-not exactly a bargain, which may have turned off a lot of people in this economy.

The forecast for affordable, quality, cruelty-free clothing is somewhat grim. Vegan shoes are hard enough to find. Vegan shoes that allow you to still be able to keep the lights on the same month you purchase them may be even more difficult to locate.

Could this mean that vegans and vegetarians who don’t wear leather will end up settling for cheap, imported, pleather shoes which tear and fade after a week and bang your feet up so badly, you need band-aids on your toes just to wear them?

Leona Lewis recognizes this problem and says she wants to make her future vegan shoes and bags easier on the bank account.

Leona, your help can’t come soon enough.

No thumbs up on this one, RZA.

Most members of the Wu-Tang Clan hip hop group are either vegetarian (RZA, Ghostface Killah, Raekwon, Masta Killa) or have been outspoken on animal rights issues in the past (GZA). So when the group collaborated with Fila shoes to produce a shoe with their name branded on it, the Wu-Tang Weather Tech Boot, you’d think it’d be cruelty free as well. No such luck.

Along with it’s “molded rubberized vamp, d-ring lacing system and padded ankle collars,” the Wu-Tang Weather Tech Boot contains an “oiled suede upper.” Boo to the Wu!

So while we were hoping RZA and his boys would follow the steps of other veggie metrosexual men and associate himself with a vegan shoe, like Frank Iero and his MacBeth’s, he’s let us down this time. This is even grosser than his veggie burger with fried egg on waffles.

Thanks Vegblog

Get your vegan footy on. A list of top vegan fall shoes is out and both Natalie Portman and Stella McCartney’s brands are on the list. Pictured above is Natalie’s Picasso 2 in Red. This of course is from her lovely Te Casan line.

Not forgetting our UK fans, Stella McCartney can make the ladies feet look sexy in her Metal Heel Patent Gray Pump available at Neiman Marcus.

Of course these gals aren’t the only ones to design vegan shoes. For a list of other fall trends, visit White Apricot.

Clothing is expensive enough. When you throw in designer labels and aim to be cruelty-free the price jumps so much, it makes you want to take a sewing class and make your own.

Leona Lewis wants to change that and expressed her desire to do so to Sunday Express’ S.

“I love Stella McCartney – but her clothes are very expensive,” Lewis said of the eco-friendly fashion designer. “I think people need a more affordable option.”

“I’m trying to find the right companies to work with, sourcing different things and talking to creative teams.”

“I would love to promote an affordable line of non-leather bags and shoes.”

The guys in My Chemical Romance prove that you don’t have to be female to show off your good taste in vegan shoe fashion. Call it cruelty-free, call it ethical, heck, even call it vegan metrosexual.

Macbethfootwear.com has a video of Frank Iero walking backstage wearing a pair of black/cement synthetic Leather Manchester shoes.

Macbeth Footwear carries a variety of cruelty-free, vegan shoes, and is currently designing shoes for other stars such as Green Day, Bloc Party, and Muse.

Watch video below to see Frank sport his Manchesters. If you want to be cool like the rock stars, go to the Macbeth Footwear website and order some!

Natalie Portman’s name was dropped by The Luxist in an article discussing fashion ethics and Hollywood stars.

Portman has vowed to only wear vegan shoes, such as those by Stella McCartney. But she’s giving vegan foot wearers even more variety.

She started her own line of vegan shoes in February of this year.

We went online (and you should too) to view these and they are absolutely gorgeous and think they’ll satisfy the shoe fetish for all vegan (and hopefully non-vegan) women in the world who are adding extra closets to their homes to make way for the 100s they already have.

While we would never promote excessive consumption in any manner, if you are going to buy dozens of shoes, we recommend you take the “No Meat On Feet,” approach.
