Rock The Coat: Conscious Living TV

Winter Fashion on the National Mall from Conscious Living TV

Whether from the National Mall, CNN, or YouTube, last week we all witnessed the most groundbreaking inauguration or our lifetimes. Greenloop would like of course to mark this profound event by discussing what our friends wore. Yes, I actually said that.

Co-hosts of Conscious Living TV, Bianca and Michael Alexander, are not only some of most compelling producers in the green biz, they are also-most definitely, hands down, don’t fight me on this one-the most fashionable. If you have any doubt in your mind as to my bold proclamation, check out Bianca in her green (literally and figuratively) inaugural ball gown by Layla Hafzi. Also, do not sleep on the ensemble she rocks with the mid-calf cashmere sweater and dress set by hessnatur with the perfectly matching headscarf, extra wide belt, and suede boots? Or the bright red vintage 60′s Parisian swingcoat? Diva!

Now, Michael Alexander may be more subtle in his style, but he is by no means a wallflower. While Bianca brings the super bright colors, Michael counters with slightly retro earth tone classics like vintage corduroy jackets and hats, paired with ethically made dark denim by menswear line M The Movement. When it was time to get formal, his sustainable haute couture suit took him through all the inaugural balls quite handsomely.

Not only does this episode have inspired fashion, it features some truly inspired inaugural events, including the Peace Ball, the Om Ball (with Michael Beckwith, Deepak Chopra*, and Saul David Raye), and of course, the best of all, the Green Inaugural Ball with Wyclef Jean.

*For the record, I have to write a fashion citation for Deepak Chopra. What’s up with the pink glitter glasses, my friend? I felt like you were gonna bust out in your own version of “Tiny Dancer.”
