Green looks good on everybody.
It’s surprisingly simple to have a trendy, high-fashion wardrobe that’s eco-friendly as well. My Beauty Bunny is teaming up with Shopbop, an online retailer that offers the latest trends from your favorite designer collections like 3.1 Phillip Lim, to give one lucky reader $100 to spend on a glamorous and green new wardrobe.
Here are 3 simple ways you can go green in your closet:
1. Go organic. . Shopbop offers plenty of earth-friendly brands like Bassike, JADEtrible, and MATT & NAT. Shop the Designer Sale for pieces that are made with organically dyed materials, faux fur, or from recycled materials. If you’re not sure if something is earth-friendly, don’t worry. Shopbop will let you know and tell you why in the item description.
2. Donate. Once you find some fabulous Alice & Olivia Dresses and the perfect pair of skinny jeans from Shopbop’s Rag & Bone Jean collection, you’ll need to clear some space in your closet for them. Instead of throwing away those old cardigans that you know you probably won’t wear anymore, donate them to a local thrift store or a homeless shelter. It’s simple to do and you’ll feel great knowing your old favorite clothes will be somebody else’s new favorites.
3. Keep your clothes clean and green. There are a lot of ways you can be more eco-friendly while doing laundry. Make sure you always have a full load in the washer and dryer, so you’ll do laundry less often. Chlorine bleaches are hard on your clothing and the environment, so stick to using a hydrogen-peroxide based bleach instead.
