Ecofashion has deservingly found a niche in fashion, the green movement inspired designers, stylists and spawned what I fondly called 'ecofashionistas.' Any efforts big or small in saving our environment is important and crucial. TheSmartStylist.com will feature 'Smart EcoStyle', focusing on chic and trendy eco-friendly apparel, shoes and accessories to support the green movement.

This week's pick is no stranger to TheSmartStylist.com, Melissa shoes are one of the first few eco-friendly footwear that I came accross. This Brazilian company has been creating suatainable and reasonably priced footwear fashion for years. They stay true to their point of view and not compromising their vision. With simple and fun use of colors, Melissa has quite the following this days, and I'm one of them.

This 'Happy Flat' ballet flats are just so cute and adorable. And one quality that Melissa is known for is comfort. The plastic material is made of 99.99% recyled waste materials and don't worry this flat won't give you blisters like other plastic shoes or sandals.

Hi! I love this style, and Melissa shoes in general. I was wondering if you have a reference for them being 99.9% recycled? Up till now, I've only read they are recyclable, but I'd be much happier if they were recycled, too! I'd really like to be sure they are. When I google that figure and melissa shoes, the only mention I get is this blog entry.
