We don't know how long the 90s will stick around, but they're back in a big way right now... even when it comes to conscious fashion. My 90s themed birthday party this year was {obviously} canceled due to COVID-19, so I've had a lot of shiny, velvet-y, pastel, floral, grunge-y inspiration and no where to put it. One of my favorite ways to get behind 90s fashion trends is to purchase vintage and secondhand, or at least upcycled. I guess I can't get into the idea of buying a *new* design based off ...

Where To Shop
Where to Buy Sustainable Joggers
When I first drafted this post, it all seemed so simple. Joggers are everywhere right now. I'd seen a few of my favorite ethical clothing brands selling them, so I didn't think I'd have a hard time rounding up a few more. Turns out, finding out where to buy sustainable joggers requires a bit of digging. So I've been adding to this list over the weeks whenever I come across a cozy new pair. Finally, I have a fairly solid list. Though I'm always on the lookout for more. Where to Buy Sustainable ... Read More
Ethical Shopping: 16 Vibrant Sustainable Accessories From Independent Designers
You might've seen our post on the best sustainable fashion brands for adding color to your wardrobe (read here if not) but I think it's about time we talked accessories. To be honest, I'm pretty simple when it comes to accessories, but I like to make a statement with whatever bag or embellishment I do carry. It's my way of elevating an otherwise lazy outfit which I'm pretty guilty of sporting on the reg (I mean, it's a pandemic, we all are at this point). I also love that accessories are a ... Read More
Top Sustainable Loungewear Brands… Because Pajamas Are For Work Now
Anyone here already worked from home when this whole quarantine situation came into play? I've been a freelancer since 2014 (and an introvert since forever) so I'm no stranger to staying home for long periods of time. For months I'd been thinking about how I really need to invest in some quality, sustainable loungewear. Actually the two of us (Jenn, who built our site, and I) had been talking about how we might as well have something nice if we're going to be spending all this time sitting at ... Read More
Eco Club Approved: 19 Conscious Seattle Boutiques to Shop Small
Updated 11/10/22 As promised, here are a few of our favorite Seattle boutiques featuring conscious goods from independent designers. When I set out to write, I knew that there were going to be so, so many shops to pull from. And then it took me weeks to put it up because I didn't know where to stop. We're so lucky that we have an abundance of options when it comes to shopping small in Seattle. (But if you're not in Seattle, don't click out! I've linked to each boutique's website, which are all ... Read More
15 Sustainable Winter Coats for your Cold Weather Wardrobe
Growing up, I hated coats. Living in Seattle, they have to be waterproof and hooded, so I basically always felt like I was wearing a plastic bag (which actually, many people do here instead). It never occurred to me that that might be exemplified by the fact that I never had a good quality coat. At the age of 27 I borrowed a friend's and a light bulb went off... coats could be comfortable?! Finding one that's good quality and ethically made may seem impossible, but in general if a company took ... Read More
