Affordable yet trendy?

[Sophie Johnson]

where can you find affordable yet on trend eco friendly fashion? So far I just find either overpriced boring clothing or expensive designer threads.

I realize that part of being eco friendly means giving up on fast fashion which produces so much excess waste, but how and where can college aged girls with modest salaries afford to be both Eco conscious and trendy?

Emma Watson's collection for People Tree looks great for college aged girls and it doesnt look all that pricey either. It is really difficult though but hopefully the more exposure ethical fashion gets the better it will get. :)

Hi,
Anniegreenabelle.com do really nice clothing. They sell through Topshop concessions, although they're not that well known yet. Found a code on moneysavingexpert as well for 15% off - May10. I'm in love with their nautical stripe jersey dress!!

Hope that helps.

Should have mentioned as well, they do ship internationally.

Hi, you could try charity /thrift shops, second hand shops, flea markets, etsy, there's loads of places.

It depends how you use the word trendy. You can combine thrift with a good key piece that would be an investment - ask a designer to make something for you - insist on using no new materials - apart from thread!
