Why It's Good:

Created by Tina Tang, a Wall Street exec turned maker of pretty things, this lovely line of necklaces, bracelets, earrings, and trinkets is handmade from premium silver and is versatile enough for running errands or attending a backyard wedding. Tang also carries a separate line of gold accessories.

Why It's Green:

Tina Tang packages all of her jewelry in recyclable totes. Plus, a portion of the proceeds from her Re-Leaf necklace is donated to American Forests, a non-profit conservation organization that plants trees throughout the country. Through this relationship, one tree is planted for every necklace purchased. Customers can even choose the location of their tree. To date, the company has planted approximately 15,000 trees throughout the country.
