Fall fashion looks are popping up everywhere this season! In your quest to find the perfect “Instagrammable” fall fashion looks, remember that the clothing industry is one of the most polluting industries in the world and that fast fashion is a huge contributor to global pollution as well as global poverty. Women and children in poorer nations are trapped in buildings with unsanitary working conditions and extremely long hours only to make less than a dollar a day. As much as possible, please shop your clothes sustainably. Check out your local thrift stores, online second-hand stores (like thredup.com or even check out facebook marketplace), borrow from friends, see if a friend is getting rid of something that you might want, or style what you already have before buying new.
All of the links included in this article lead to ethical and sustainable brands or online thrift stores!
