A whole weekend dedicated to vegan shopping and eating?!

Creamy Mushroom Stroganoff + Lentil, Oat & Veggie Balls (Dairy-free, Vegan)
Creamy, hearty, nourishing & delicious.
We made this meal for dinner recently and it made for an EPIC lunch of leftovers...
The stroganoff gets its creaminess from freshly made cashew cream - one of the staples in our vegan kitchen.
Luxury Faux Fur Coats: Pelush New York
In our most exciting shoot yet, we styled this beautiful, luxurious, unique and glamorous faux fur, hand crafted in New York City.
With her pioneering label Pelush, Anna Tagliabue is creating elegant animal-free fashion. We couldn't resist photographing her stylish coat on a beautiful Australian beach...
Bags & Wallets Made From Seatbelts
What a fantastic concept: taking used seatbelts and up-cycling them into stunning accessories. These creations really are gorgeous in their own right, but they also happen to be sustainable, vegan and hard-wearing (after all, the material was originally designed to protect passengers from harm)!
Yong Green Food Melbourne // Nourishing & Delicious Vegetarian Cuisine.
One of our all time favourite restaurants in Melbourne is Yong Green Food, who specialise in organic, wholesome, vegetarian cuisine. Most of their food is vegan or vegan-adaptable, and they also offer an excellent range of raw and gluten-free items.
Almond, Pistachio & Orange Spice Cake // Dairy Free, Egg Free, Vegan
Sweetened with fragrant orange blossom water and orange zest, lightly spiced with cardamom and studded with crunchy pieces of pistachio & almond, this classic cake is made with olive oil - so the longer it lasts, the moisture it gets.
However, in our house it never gets the chance, as every last crumb is eagerly munched.

Toasted Sesame & Spiced Oat Granola
Do you love tahini, that deliciously more-ish spread made from sesame seeds?
We are great fans of the yummy nutty flavour (and high nutrition) of those tiny little sesame seeds, and wondered what would happen if we combined them with one of our other great favourites: oats.
And what happened, was the most delicious granola that we've made.... Want the recipe?
Conscious Living :: What's on the Radar This Week? House Plants!
With the cosy August days getting slightly longer, there's a promise of spring in the air. So we're starting to think about how we might style up our home to include a few more plants, because when it comes to plants, more is always a good idea. They clean the air, soften the visual atmosphere, and we secretly think they make everybody happier too...
