Real Vegan Style: Kristin Lajeunesse

I first met Kristin Lajeunesse when she wrote a fabulous review for my blog on The Vegan Reviewer. Since then we've chatted online on and off through many forms of social media. Over the past year I've learned she's lives in Boston MA, loves all things vegan (including fashion!), loves to post pictures of delish vegan food on her Facebook (mmmm) and is in general one amazing lady. Actually, she's kind of a wonder woman! Not only does she work full-time as a Communications Associate at the World Society for the Protection of Animals (wow that was a lot to type) but she also works part-time for both Vegan Mainstream and the Albany Vegetarian Network. Kristin volunteers her time at the Albany Vegetarian Network as a Marketing Coordinator for their upcoming Vegan Fashion show. With all the hard work that she's put into the show, I can guarantee it's a not to be missed event for anyone who lives in or near the state of New York. I so wish I could go! Click HERE for more details. Since Kristin is such a lover of vegan fashion, I figure it was just natural for me to ask her to put together an outfit for this column. So without further ado, I give you Kristin's outfit, enjoy!

Real Vegan Style: Nicole Simone

This lovely lady is not only a friend of mine, but she's also a über talented singer, songwriter & musician. You can find Nicole performing around Toronto under the name Late July. Her most recent album has been one of my favourites to play in the background while I'm hard at work bringing you fashion filled posts. I'm of course listening to it now as I type.  You can find her album Side Swept on iTunes. When Nicole is not performing, you'll find her volunteering with animal rescue groups (Kennel Inn Inc, Epic Tails Horse & Dog Rescue and much more) and running around Toronto either enjoying a vegan cupcake or having her picture taken in fabulous outfits like this one below.
