By Paige Wolf<\/strong>, author of the book + blog: Spit That Out: The Overly Informed Parent’s Guide to Raising Children in the Age of Environmental Guilt<\/a><\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n In the past few years, designers have proved that co-conscience fashion is not all about shapeless frocks made from hemp yarn. Linda Loudermilk and Stella McCartney took chic sustainability to fashion week. Unfortunately, most of us can barely afford a pair of organic cotton socks donning those labels.<\/p>\n But there are still plenty of ways to green your wardrobe and debunk the myth that eco-friendly fashion has to cost a fortune.<\/strong><\/p>\n Of course, the greenest and cheapest way to shop is secondhand. Anything you purchase at a resale or consignment shop keeps once-worn apparel out of the landfill, and can assuage any guilt over coveted designer labels. But for brand new threads, there are a few places to shop for new ethical fashion on a budget.<\/p>\n Threads 4 Thought<\/a> organic and sustainably sourced pieces are very well priced, with basics like tees and tanks regularly priced around $10.<\/p>\n Don\u2019t miss the sales from already reasonably priced SAVA<\/a>, a sustainable fashion brand and manufacturer right in my city of Philadelphia.<\/p>\n While you may not love conventional mass brands practices, when they do make green strides, they reach a broad audience and become game changers in the market. H&M became one of the world\u2019s biggest users of organic cotton<\/a> with its super cute H&M Conscious Collection. Just try to snatch the collections up before they sell out!<\/p>\n My two favorite havens for flash sales, Pure Citizen<\/a> and JP Selects<\/a> offer deep discounts on eco fashion from brands like Stewart + Brown, Nixxi, SPUN, Toggery, and much more.<\/p>\n You can also shop fabulous multi-brand clearance sales at Arcadia Boutique<\/a>, Nimli<\/a>, Beklina<\/a>, and Ecolissa<\/a>.<\/p>\n Find a full list of sustainable fashion brands at Eco Fashion World<\/a>.<\/p>\n1.
