5 Environmentally Conscious Clothing Brands To Shop At Instead Of The Usual Stores

Opting for cute, sustainable clothing is a much easier way to feel less guilty about feeding into fast fashion corporations like Forever 21 and Fashion Nova, many of which own inherently dehumanizing sweat-shops with little to no remorse for the workers and environmental toll this takes on us.


1. Reformation 

While definitely on the expensive side, their cohesive plan to consider water input, energy input, land use, eco-toxicity, greenhouse gas emissions, human toxicity, availability and price when manufacturing clothes makes up for its high-end prices.

2. Alternative Apparel, Inc.

It's budget-friendliness and incorporates organic and recycled materials wherever possible, with most of their clothes being under $100.

3. Levi's

Levi's jeans are by far the most sustainable, with initiatives like Cotton's Blue Jeans Go Green™ program that recycled over 2.4 million pieces of denim and diverted over 1,200 tons of textile waste from landfills.

4. Everlane 

Everlane focuses on their workers as well, and ensure to keep up to ethical standards by paying close attention to factors like fair wages, reasonable hours, and environment.

5. Stella McCartney 

Luxury fashion, but make it sustainable. Stella McCartney pushes towards transparency, protecting ancient and endangered forests and measuring our impact and footprint.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
