Daniella Alonso is one smart, compassionate cookie. She’s already sworn off leather, and now the model-turned-actor is swearing off wool, too.

With vegan clothes, shoes, handbags, and accessories in high demand, both major fashion houses and everyday retailers are jumping on board the skins-free trend, making items easily accessible.
