Affordable And Sustainable: H&M's Green Offerings

I won't lie- I've found myself digging through H&M's racks of trendy-at-this-moment garments on more than one occasion. Sometimes the allure of inexpensive wardrobe supplements is more than my usually eco-conscious self can take. It's a delicate balance for those of us who care about being fashionable, but care equally as much about what it's made of and where it was made.

Thank ye fashion gods, environmentally preferable clothing is easier than ever to come by, and major retailers are joining exclusive boutiques in offering organic clothing options. If you're like me, and can't fit that new Linda Loudermilk piece (Love it. Can't afford it.) in your budget, console yourself with the thought that you can head down to H&M and check out their newly expanded sustainable wares.

Yeah, the materials may be "green," but what about the cheap labor. People are often paid very little (and sometimes nothing) to provide Americans their "cheap" goods. If the price on an item is too good to be true, it usually is because, somewhere along the line of the product chain, someone was forced into sweat-shop or slave labor.
