seven planet is an incredibly unique company on a wonderful mission to support sustainable, mindful commerce. If you’re unfamiliar with the term “mindful commerce” it is the belief that one should only consume when they are in need of something and if they are in need of a product they will work to purchase the most mindful product available to them.  The current seven industry silos are defined as the industries in which the average individual spends the greatest amount of their income and where the CO2 footprint is the most significant {has the largest impact on the environment}: apparel, energy, food, health, household, shelter and travel.

With those seven silos in mind, seven planet created the world’s first chain of green general stores! They ensure that all their suppliers comply with their mindful commerce mission and each company must meet 4 of the 7 following criteria:

1. + suppliers are environmental supporters as a company
2. + suppliers utilize organic materials in their products
3. + suppliers source local materials for their products
4. + suppliers source renewable materials for their products
5. + suppliers recycle and reuse materials at facilities
6. + suppliers utilize renewable energy in their facilities
7. + suppliers offset their carbon footprint for shipping

At seven planet you’ll find just about anything and everything that complements your green lifestyle. All sorts of organic, recycled, upcycled and reclaimed products you are sure to love including eco alternative options for sandwich bags, sustainable iPod covers, local and organic dog food, truly recyclable tableware, salvaged hand crafted furniture. Here are some of their items:

and something I know you all are going to love:

Soft, natural, eco-friendly, luxurious wraps made from 100% renewable bamboo. These generously-sized luxurious wraps are made from bamboo pulp fabric and are available in 5 chic colors. Unlike other, more expensive wraps, they will not pill or fade and are extraordinarily soft. I love how functional wraps are especially for spring, summer and fall when you need something to cozy up with on an evening walk and especially while traveling. They can dress up or dress down an outfit depending on how you wear them, and if you buy them in neutral colors {I went with ivory}, they’ll be loved for years to come.  I wish you could reach into the screen and feel how incredibly soft this pashmina is! It’s not paper thin like many pashminas are and it’s not like a heavy fall/winter fleecy style wrap. It’s somewhere in the middle and it’s perfect. There is a tiny bit of stretch to it so it’s really easy to wear in many different ways {search on youtube for how to wear a pashmina or scarf tutorials}. I’m very excited to take it on my next trip with me. It’s versatile enough to keep me warm on a chilly airplane to dinner with my husband all while being chic and eco-friendly!

The Bamboo Pashmina wraps from seven planet come in a ready-to-give bamboo cylinder which is hands down,  some of the coolest  eco-friendly packaging I’ve come across yet! At $40 in gift packaging so unique, this is an excellent price – I promise you this isn’t a scratchy, cheap pashmina  ;)
