Green Day

And the winner of this year's Eco-fashionista award goes to the newly crowned Miss USA!
I'll be honest, I didn't actually watch the entire pageant. I did catch some interesting highlights form Miss Cali's Q&A segment though (capital "L").

But the real story comes from former Miss North Carolina, Kristen Dalton, who took the crown in true Earth friendly fashion.

The good folks over at Diamond Nexus Labs, who specialize in "laboratory created" gemstones, manufactured the crown that sported a green theme this year:

--"Valued at $202,000, the Miss USA crown features 1,936 flawless lab-created gemstones for a total of 166.82 carats set in 325 grams of gold and platinum.

Fifty-one of these jewels adorn the oval centerpiece to celebrate each of the 51 women competing to become Miss USA 2009.
All of the gems were lab made, using an environmentally friendly process with no toxic byproducts or pollutants."

Not Bad.

With today being Earth Day (not to be confused with April 20th, 2009), I challenge everyone to do their part in saving our planet. Charge up those Hybrids, reduce your carbon fingerprint, buy all the organic-veggie-corndogs you can get your hands on! You hippies.

And don't forget to cop some JBH ice to keep those polar caps from melting. ~vk

(Miss USA...for my guys.)
