http://www.brandhabit.com/feeds/member/gretch Honestly I am happy to see that the media has made it helpful to find eco-friendly fashion however it hasnt swayed my decision towards buying an item. I think we have awhile to go still before the necessities of fashion are made eco-friendly and priced accordingly. I will say the media has made me aware and I am happy to see that we're headed in an eco-friendly direction ! http://www.brandhabit.com/member/gretch Although fabulous clothes are pricey these days- i dont let it cramp my style..I will say I am more thrifty on items that I'll only wear a couple times vs. the items in which you can use daily/weekly/mix n match, etc. I love to spend on items that I can use/wear from season to season. And I must say quality is a must on those pricey items. I tend to search out the item prior to buying right then and there...the more time I think about something the more I know its a must have! Another thing to keep in mind is that there are so many great consignment shops these days.. possibly you can sell those unworn items that you did buy on impulse in exchange/save for something thats more fabulous ! http://www.brandhabit.com/member/gretch I can say that I own a wallet and yes it is in my handbag weighing it down with everything else i don't need! Not sure why I need the wallet as I always am grabbing the debit card and running for the coffee shop. The best wallet is a small envelope like shape that you can attach to your wrist! Not too big ..just big enough for the essentials and maybe a lipgloss. !! http://www.brandhabit.com/member/gretch Why wouldnt you " Go Green" ...everyones doing it! My efforts to go green include using Shaklee eco-friendly cleaning products (Yes, as seen on Oprah's favorite things show) , purchasing organic baby clothing ( especially from Sage Baby) for that cute nephew of mine, sending "Evites" via the web and or "Earmark" 100% recycled paper invites!! ( Super cute, I might add!!) GOT GREEN? http://www.brandhabit.com/member/gretch © 2007 BrandHabit, Inc. All rights reserved.
