My Ethical Fashion Purchase Of The Month

Feb 16, 2019

 

If you’ve been a VF blog reader for awhile now, you know I’m an avid thrift store shopper.

That said, I also believe in supporting different ethical fashion brands by purchasing new items when I can.

Here are a few of the things I look for when working with a brand or giving them my business:

  • sustainable
  • powerful
  • feminine
  • humanitarian
  • family/locally owned
  • hypoallergenic
  • environmental reform
  • made in the usa
  • optimism
  • year-round essentials
  • reduce the environmental impact of harmful substances
  • wellness
  • versatile wardrobe
  • vintage
  • timeless silhouette
  • bold
  • fair wages for workers
  • body positive
  • responsible use of resources
  • ethically crafted
  • recyclable packaging
  • take action
  • sustainable living
  • empowering other women
  • give back to those in need
  • beautiful
  • leave the world a better place
  • healthier planet
  • future focused
  • using business as a force for good

 

Shopping ethically and mindfully is important to me, and I know you feel the same.

That’s why I love this beautiful cropped jean jacket by Reformation. It has great-sized pockets, is reasonably priced, sits at the perfect length, and the material it’s made from helps the planet.

Here are the stats: 

  • 31 pounds of carbon dioxide savings
  • 1460 gallons of water savings
  • 1.8 pounds of waste savings

 

I’m definitely taking this wardrobe staple on my upcoming babymoon to the Sedona mountains! If you’re looking for a medium weight jacket that will last, you can find my jacket in a beautiful vintage wash here.

 

Thank you for stopping by. 🙂
