inevitable pastels

Every where I turn, I see chicks strolling around in mint skinnies. I will not be a victim of fast fashion! (trying... but I just got the cutest peach Gstar (whom recently commits to detoxing their fashion!) skinnies from Show Room, can't remember the last time I splurged on clothing) 

"For too long the fashion industry has been polluting waterways around the world with hazardous chemicals used to print, dye and wash our clothes. G-Star and Levi’s have credible, ambitious and industry-leading commitments and action-plans for helping to drive the final nails in the coffin of toxic textiles. Both of these brands moved from greenwashers to potential Detox heroes thanks to the actions of hundreds of thousands of ‘fashionistas’, activists and concerned consumers around the world" -brands that will not commit includes GAP and Calvin Klein. 

Lets see what I learned in Ethics class this week... oh apple products! Did you know that all iPhones and iPods are made in Shenzen, China by a company called Foxconn. What is really sad is even though these phones are sold at such a high price, the demand for it ultimately leads to poor conditions for worker and even suicide (ie. overtime everyday, one worker worked 34 hours straight and died!) for more information check out this article.
