Best sustainable clothing brands 2021: 40 ethical fashion lines

Rosa S. Alexander

Dress for success this year — for yourself and for the future of the planet.

Fast fashion is fun, but it’s time to slow it down and really consider the environment when shopping for new clothes and accessories. With so many sustainable and eco-friendly brands flooding the market, it’s not hard to budget for the health of the eco-system while you shop. But, it doesn’t have to be expensive.

“Ethical” and “sustainable” can be confusing terms, as they mean different things for different brands and shoppers. To put it simply, sustainable practices may involve making the dyes from eco-friendly materials that are chemical-free, using renewable energy in the production process, using durable fabrics so clothing lasts as long as possible and recycling old materials like scrap fabric and even plastic bottles into new garments. Basically, the less harm to the planet, the better.

Johnnie Walker Master Blender Jim Beveridge Talks Scotland And The Brand’s Bicentennial

Rosa S. Alexander

If there’s one theme I’ve been writing on for the past few months, it’s that in this homebound, sedentary lifestyle a lot of us aren’t used to experiencing, the best way to feel connected to the places you’ve been pining to visit is to keep calm, relax, and take a sip of some fine spirits from those destinations. Whether it be bubbly French champagne, sweet rosé, or refreshing tequila, they all make a fine addition to your virtual happy hour/game night or to share with those you have (safely) closest to you.

These Brands Don’t Want Your Black Friday Business

Jaime E. Love

This Black Friday, as brands slash prices! and trumpet the best deals! and big savings!, one company is taking a very different route. Sneaker brand Allbirds is actually increasing its prices. 

Every product will be $1 more expensive on Friday, with all the extra money raised going to Fridays For Future, the climate movement founded by Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg. 

“Black Friday deals may satiate momentary desire,” Allbirds said in a statement, “but their impact on the planet is a lot more long-lasting.”
