I can’t believe it’s been three years since I first heard about b green organic clothing.  I visited their green festival booth back in March of oh-nine and made a purchase right then and there: b green organic classic bikini-cut panties.  To this day, they’re still my favorite pair! I recently wore my b greens during [...]

Earlier this week I proclaimed my desire to go to Scotland to see Highland Cattle in their indigenous habitat.  Today I found Re-Dress, an Irish organization that utilizes education, cooperative practices and public events to encourage ethical fashion practices.  If I stumble across an ethical English designer tomorrow, that’s it, I give in, I’m flying [...]

She first caught our eye when she announced her Green Carpet Challenge where she proclaimed that all her red carpet dresses for the year would be sustainable – and she did it! [...]

ECIG: Kelly Lane

January 9, 2012

I am so ambivalent about ModCloth. I love that they introduce me to independent designers – they led me to today’s independent fashion designer, Kelly Lane – but hate that they change the name of every design they feature.

Ugghhhh, I’m so tired.  Can you hear the whine in my voice?  That’s my tired whine.  It is distinct from my other whines.  (I bet your whines are distinct, too; you just haven’t noticed.) I have this awesome 100% cotton, horizontally-striped maxi dress at home, but it’s too short and, after my holiday fun, probably [...]

It’s especially dangerous this year: I’ve just resolved that I’d like to buy a house, which means “save save save”…which actually means “quit buying all the things on the internet.” But mooooooom, LovingEco is having a saaaaaale. LovingEco, an ethical sample sale website that we [...]

This just proves, once again, that you can’t judge a store by its specialty – there are eco-friendly gems everywhere!

What will you be wearing this New Year’s Eve?

We first noticed these gorgeous tops when ZARA launched it US e-commerce site a few months ago. I actually picked one up (the top on the right!), and am pleased to report that the quality is excellent, and the shirt is wonderful! 100% organic cotton in a classic style – for less than $20 – [...]

I was hunting for post-worthy recycled clothing options and found…this. I mean, really. What the hell? American Apparel, I don’t understand you. You’re into these weird softcore porn advertisements…and this. How does this make me want to buy anything? The only reason I ran across these shirts is because they’re made of vintage men’s button-ups. [...]
