Are you looking to live a greener lifestyle but just aren’t sure where to start? Sprig.com is a Web site that can help you learn the ins and outs of going green in all areas of your life, from fashion to beauty to home decorating.

Sprig.com recently relaunched the site with an expanded scope.

“Previously we focused a lot on the ‘what’ of being green and the ‘who.’ So there were lots of products and celebrity video interviews and things like that,” said Sprig.com editor Jeanie Pryun. “But now, we expanded more to how to be green and why (you should) be green, so there are more articles and blogs and slideshows.”

The Fashion section gives tips on how to dress green from head to toe with recommendations on all sorts of items, including bags, clothes, jewelry, shoes, vintage and other accessories.

Looking for a summer dress? There is a slideshow displaying 10 dresses that are environmentally friendly.

“Our basic philosophy is that sometimes you have to shop. Of course, the greenest thing is to try and reduce your consumption, but you know, sometimes you want or need new things, so why not check out what your green options are?” said Pryun.

Looking for tips to green up your home? Sprig.com has sections titled covering Auto & Tech, Bed & Bath, Build & Renovate, Celebrating, Cleaning, Décor, Furniture, Garden & Yard, Kitchen & Dining and Office & Utilities.

In the Beauty section you can find everything from green beauty products to articles such as “How To Avoid Lead In Your Lipstick.”

There is also a Celebrity section that covers the Hollywood adventures of celebrities living the green lifestyle, from news as lofty as California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger’s attempts to battle the drought in California and Bette Midler’s opening of a community garden in New York to paparazzi-like news of Ashley Simpson buying organic blankets for her future baby.

There is also a section featuring interviews with celebrities Laurie David, Mena Suvari, Michael Rapaport and many more.
