The Vegan Accessory Hotlist

Here’s our guide to the real ethical favourites of the editorial team to give you slow-fashion inspiration through 2020 and beyond…

The Vegan Accessory Hotlist

1. HIKING HERO

Deputy Editor, Rachael: “I love nothing more than spending my weekends doing hikes and visiting National Trust sites across the country, so a pair of sturdy boots is really essential for me. Luckily, M&S is paving the way on the high street with a vegan shoe collection the whole Veggie team is lusting over. These hiking boots tick my boxes for looking stylish, whilst also being practical and super-comfortable. It’s a yes from me!” Faux Fur Hiking Ankle Boots, £45, Marks and Spencer

2. DEADLINE ESSENTIAL

Content Writer, Paisley: “As someone with multiple deadlines, keeping an eye on the clock is an essential part of my life. Thankfully, this vegan leather watch is classically designed, and comes in an eco-friendly felt pouch and box. It’s reliable, too: it has lasted well since I started using it five months ago. It’s a special cruelty-free accessory to gift or to treat yourself.” The Pink & Rose Gold Watch by Votch, £120, Mamoq

3. THE ULTIMATE HANDBAG

Editor, Sian: "I love my current work bag from LaBante London – it's a really practical tote that I can fit everything into, without it looking too bulky. The vegan leather has a beautiful finish, and there are plenty of compartments for all of my bits and bobs. I've been using this bag for around six months now, and some of the stitching is starting to fray a little, but apart from that, it's still in the same great condition as the day I got it. The punchy fuchsia lining is another plus point: it adds a splash of colour to my mainly monochrome workwear outfits! I lust after most things on the LaBante website, so I'll definitely go back for more soon!" LaBante London Demi Grey Vegan Shoulder Bag, £129.90, Labante London

4. WALLET WISE

Deputy Editor, Rachael: “This beautiful wallet combines both practicality and my ethical values in one sleek design. The wallet is ideal for everyday use with its many pockets; plus the rectangular shape is easy to quickly reach for in my handbag. Matt & Nat is an entirely vegan brand, with no animal products used in the production of any of its items, and it also focuses on sustainably sourced materials, which is really important to me. I’ll definitely be investing in more from the brand.” Matt & Nat Central Wallet in Pebble, £80, Matt and Nat

5. LEOPARD PRINT LOVER

Content Writer, Paisley: “I’m a sucker for anything leopard-print patterned; it’s not unusual to find me padding into the office in trainers, tops and dresses, all covered in the sought-after print – not to mention my faux-fur leopard-print jacket. This scarf is an integral part of my collection, pairing perfectly with black jeans on a winter's day. The soft bamboo fibres are cosy around my neck without being itchy, and I know it’ll be a staple in my wardrobe year after year.” Scarf - Leopard, £69, Asquith London
