Eco-Opulent

A mix of cheeky, Old Hollywood elegance and updated takes on classic modern

"A mix of cheeky, Old Hollywood elegance and updated takes on classic modern" is how Chicagoan Kathleen Rowan and Indiana native– turned–Los Angeleno Deana Bracken describe the eco-conscious offerings of their new business, Green With Glamour. In addition to clothes and gift items, the site features a tight collection of green home furnishings and accessories. We love the recycled aluminum Louis the Umpteenth side table by Johnston-Ready (right, $3,690), the Glammourama pillow (left, $115), and the duo's jaunty wallpaper choices from Woodson & Rummerfield's House of Design (starting at $55 a roll). Look for a storefront to open here in late fall. greenwithglamour.com
